Can anyone recommend me windshield wipers?

I liked the Michelin Radius blades on my Camaro. Then they replaced them with the Stealth blades and those suck horribly. Cheaper construction, same price, poorer performance, and awful ice and snow collectors.

I have some Rain-X Latitudes on my Trailblazer. They are OK, but I liked the Radius blades better. What's weird is the plastic is warping on them.

I was going to try the Bosch Icons but they were OOS when I needed blades.

For a cheap blade, I kinda like the Pylon blades from wally world. Only a few bucks each and they last decently well and wipe well for what they are. Not good in the winter because of the open frame that gets all frozen up, but above freezing temps they are fine. I'll probably replace the Latitudes with a set of those for the summer, then get a better, ice-resistant blade come winter.

I have those Michelin blades; they're the best blades I've used so far. Cleans my windshield just like a squeegee every time.

They failed miserably for me. Collected ice worse than any other blade I had, didn't wipe all that well because of all the ice collection (left streaks a lot), then they started falling apart while I was using them and came pretty close to gouging up my windshield.

Thankfully they refunded me without much fuss and I got something else.

Maybe I just had a bad batch? Not sure. I wasn't too impressed though. In just normal wet weather they wiped fine but they failed miserably for me as a winter blade (which they are advertised for doing well at).

Valeo is my favorite, but they're a bit pricey except when they have a B1G1 deal. I bought some Bosch Evolution blades off of Amazon for about $10 each with free shipping (prime). I'd put them pretty close to Valeo blades for quality, at about half the price. I've been using them for about 3 months now.
