Very pleased with these wipers so far. Time will tell about durability, but have been on my son's car for three months and still look good. Performance compared to stock wiper blades in heavy rain far superior, which I consider a safety feature worth the money (why do you think I put them on my son's car?).

Purchased this blade just under 4 months ago and it already needs to be replaced. I expect the average life of a wiper to be at least 6 months before the rubber compounds begin to breakdown. This blade works well in light rain on the intermittent setting, but when it starts to come down the noise is almost unbearable. It seems like a fickle thing to complain about, but imaging driving for ~30mins with something squeeking and squawking in your ear non-stop. This is in the warm months too, so no excuses of the rubber being too hard. The performance got WORSE as the weather got colder. With last nights storm in New England (12/29/12) the blade was jumping across the windshield until it was able to warm up. This is not an isolated case either since 3 other blades of the same kind were purchased between 2 vehicles.

Comments about Trico Flex Windshield Wiper Blade, 24":
Very impressed with the smoothness, and solid installation. No chattering and they look sharp very sporty. They compare very well against the Bosh and Rainx curved models even those have an inch or so that doesn't make perfect contact, however with these its not even an inch just a tiny bit on the very tip of the passenger side. All in all worth the money especially if you get them now buy 1 get 1 %50 off. Won't be disappointed installed mine in the middle of a rain storm and they worked great no rain drops left behind.

One arm blade, others have too many arms for pressure and relax over time, last wipers lasted 9 months or 1500 miles!

Well designed sturdy unit. Blade molds itself to the windshield nicely. It's been through a few rain storms and has worked as expected. I've only had them on for two months and in another 4 months, I'll see if they hold up better than regular blades. Only complaint is that they are offset to the wiper arm and as such, they look odd.

Q:
How do I install new wipers1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
Steps to replace the wiper blade: 1. If your windscreen wipers lifted all the way up, you can skip straight to step 3. If your windscreen wipers cannot be raised all the way up, rest them down again as normal, jump in the car, turn the ignition key to the first or second position, and then operate the windscreen wipers (you normally do not need the engine running for this). When the wipers are at around a 45 degree angle, quickly turn the key to the off position so that the wipers stop half-way through their motion. You should now be able to pull the windscreen wipers away from the screen fully. A good idea to switch wipers to OFF position now. 2. Now the old windscreen wipers can be removed. Push the lower part of the wiper blade so that it pivots. Moderate force is required to do this. 3. Continue pushing the wiper blade so that it ends up 90 degrees from the wiper arm. 4. With the blade a 90 degrees, you will see a small clip. Push this down with your thumb or finger, whilst simultaneously pushing the entire wiper blade downwards. A bit of force is required, and it may also help to wiggle the wiper blade a little. 5. Pushing the wiper down will release the wiper arm hook from the wiper blade clip. You can then move it into position as pictured. You might need to pull the rubber out of the way. 6. Now you can pull the windscreen wiper blade totally away from the wiper arm hook. 7. Take the windscreen wiper out of the packaging, and then position the centre clip. 8. Position the wiper. The goal is to get it over the wiper blade clip. 9. Grip the wiper blade and push it upwards. Using two hands will make this very easy. This will push the clip into the hook. 10. Ensure the clip is fully fitted. The hook should actually end up almost a centimeter into the clip - check your blade against the one pictured. Once it's secure, pivot the wiper by pushing. This will put the wiper blade back parallel with the wiper arm. This is the reverse of what you did in step 3. 11. All that remains is to set the windscreen wiper back down to the windscreen. Just gently push the wiper blade, being careful to support it all the way back down. If you had to follow step 2, your wipers will be left at a 45 degree angle. They will return to normal once you use your windscreen wipers in the normal way.
