Bosch Wiper Blade 26 Inch - 26CA

Purchased these to replace other brand wiper that I recently bought. It's like night and day between the two brands. These were a perfect fit,cleaned windshield perfectly and did not hop or streak. Install was easy for drivers side but passenger was a little different and harder,but worked out fine.

Very sturdy and does it’s job. Unlike other brands it’s held up. Easy to replace. I was able to install them in just a few minutes without any tools. Highly recommend it.

After getting fed up with my stock windshield wipers that squeaked with every stroke, I decided to do my research and upgrade mine to a better brand. After some time reading reviews online and talking to friends who obsess over their car as much as I do, I decided to go with the Bosch wipers as it seemed a lot more people complained about the Rain-X brand over these.Buying these on Amazon is an absolute bargain, as they are 1/3 of the price here as they are in the store or any other major online retailer.Installing these on my 2010 Toyota Corolla LE is absolutely simple. It was much easier to install these than to take the old ones off. The wordless picture instructions on the packaging make it seem a lot more difficult than it is. Just be sure to install it with the fatter part of the hook facing the passenger side.I've only had these on my car for a few days, and after driving through a major rainstorm today, I am disappointed to say that I didn't get the 5 star results that I wanted. Even with the windshield wipers on the slowest speed to catch the rain, the wipers began to chatter after some time of use. (Maybe these wipers are too good at taking off the water). For my Corolla, I required a 26" for the drivers side and a 16" for the passenger. For some reason, the driver's side wiper shakes about on the hook. Perhaps there is not enough pressure on the hook to push down on the end of the 26" blade. Weirdly enough, these wipers are perfectly fine when I spray windshield washer fluid.I am accepting that many factors could contribute to this. Living in Florida, the heat is big issue that many people complain about with their windshield wipers. Another reason could be because my windshield hasn't been treated with some sort of lubricant, such as Rain-X. I am hoping that treating my windshield will let the blades slide easier on the windshield, especially in the rain.I do agree that these windshield wipers are the best money can buy, I am just disappointed I did not get the same results as everyone else.UPDATE: After breaking them in with a few showers, the blades are fantastic. My cousin riding in the car even noticed I got new blades as soon as I turned them on. The blades are fantastic at getting water off, especially with at higher speeds with the wind force pushing them down, which can be the problem if you don't have intermittent wipers. On my Toyota Corolla, I only have 3 speeds which I can set the wipers too, and in an ambient spray, even the slowest setting takes off all the water in one stroke, to the point where I don't even turn on my blades.

I am really impressed with the Bosch Clear Advantage wipers. The Bosch wipers are of such solid construction and quality I have now put them on both of my vehicles though the other wasn't yet due for new wiper blades - good thing they're a good value, too! True they are slightly more costly upfront than several competing brands; when it comes to safety aspects and peace of mind we err on the side of caution. Afterall, our loved ones lives are at stake.The 26" wiper fit our '06 Dodge Durango (front - driver side) perfectly and is a great replacement. It was very easy to install the entire arm assembly instead of the old days of fighting to change just the rubber "blade". I easily had both front wiper blades replaced within 5 minutes. Awesome! Bosch is a name that can be trusted, I highly recommend these wipers.Note: these wipers are sold individually and some vehicles need 2 different sizes for the front. Additionally SUVs often require a different size for the rear wiper. Be sure to use Amazon's nifty "Find Part" tool to verify these wipers will fit your vehicle. If you include your vehicle in the "My Garage" feature of Amazon it makes finding replacement parts a breeze to confidently order parts and know they will fit your vehicle(s).

This fits the Honda Odyssey and Amazon said the 26" would not FYI. This is the driver's side wiper. The 22" is the passenger. Both of these wipers work excellently. They are much better than the prior two brands I had. I'm not sure what they were, this is why I bought them on Amazon so I can refer back to my purchase later in the future.Year later update:So it's a bit over a year using these wipers. I'm unclear how long wipers are supposed to last but i would think well longer than a year is reasonable. I find they are loud and do not do a good job anymore getting a clean non-streak wipe across the windshield. if you think windshield wipers are a 6-12 month product I think you'll be happy with these. if you think they are a 1-2 year product i think you'll be only feel okay about this purchase.

I don't know why it's so hard to find good, lasting wipers. These reviews seem wonderful and I'm at a loss as to how I could have such a horrible experience with them. I got a set of these for my 2012 Honda Odyssey and installed them as soon as they arrived. I was immediately shocked and filled with disappointment as one skipped across the windshield and the other (driver side) streaked so bad I couldn't see out the window. I then ordered a replacement through Amazon which arrived very quickly. I installed them only to find that they both streaked and skipped, making a horrible loud sound with every pass. To clarify, my windshield has no substance on it and was extremely clean when this occurred. The skipping and streaking did not happen with my OEM wipers. I only replaced them because they were getting old and coworkers recommended switching to the all-rubber blades for better performance in winter.Overall...my guess is that there is a great variance in manufacturing quality of these blades. How else could there be so many excellent reviews and so many 1-star reviews? I don't know, but after two sets of these I'm sorely disappointed and have not enjoyed using them for a single day.
