Best Windshield Wiper Blade (AFTER 1 YEAR)? Bosch Icon, Rain-X, PIAA, Trico, Valeo, AERO

BRANDS TESTED: Bosch Icon, Rain-X, PIAA, Michelin, Trico, Valeo, Auto Drive and AERO.Best windshield wipers after 1 year of sun & UV exposure. It's been a year since the original test and even more brands have been added to this test, including rubber and silicone wipers. Brands tested: Bosch Icon, Rain-X, PIAA, Michelin, Trico, Valeo, Auto Drive and AERO. All the the wipers were placed on top of a metal roof to ensure full sun and UV exposure for an entire year. Let's look at them under a microscope to see how they held up and then let's performance test them at 55 miles per hour making our own rain using a rain simulator I added to the truck. Let's also test them simulating heavy rain at low speeds to see how they perform. Hope you enjoy the video!

@@Mr.Beastforpresident Right, and for the record, Consumer Reports is NOT unbiased even though they like to boast how they take no sponsors/advertisers. I watched one of their (C.R.) videos awhile back, and though they have a 'laboratory' that they work out of, I noticed right away that the test method they were using was devised by someone who had no clue as to what a proper test set up should be for the product that they were testing and how it is actually used (and what it is used for) in the real world.

I tried the Bosch Icon wiper blades when they first came out. I put them on my wife's Honda Pilot. I spent years just getting the cheapest auto parts store $7.99 specials. They lasted about 6 months.

I've bought some Rain-X blades and they were great, but short lived. I guess our Summer heat kills em? Idk. I live in Georgia and we have very humid Summers and pretty cold Winters. Not as cold as most of the country, but cold enough imo. I'm so tired of buying wiper blades every 6mos or so. I bought some Trico Ultras I found in clearance a while back. If these are short lived, I am going to try the Bosch Icon and see how they last. If they kept good for about 3yrs for you, they must be good. Thank for your comment. They sound promising.

My Bosch wipers have been on for soo many years.. still work great.. the secret? Clean them.. it’s not hard.. do it every so often..

[@stevebean1234]

It’s strange, I loved my Bosch blades (and most Bosch stuff) but I’ve experienced their wiper drying out and cracking on several cars - maybe after 1-2 years? I started using PIAA silicone blades back in ~2014 and I’m still on the same set on one car, working fine. The feeling of new wiper blades is a great one and I remember being very impressed by Bosch, they blew away the competition. RainX was close. I guess I just didn’t experience longevity compared to when I switched to PIAA. Plus I can buy wiper replacements themselves and not have to throw away the whole wiper body like Bosch. Writing this here via dialectic method. Not trying to prove you wrong. In fact would be happy to switch back to Bosch if my memory was flawed. Not having good wipers when you need them is rough

[@eledgy]

As much as I appreciate this channel, I find this testing method quite lazy. Two years on a roof doesn’t simulate regular use. Having purchased and used these wipers, he’s missing the meat of this test for most people: real world highway downpours and months of regular use with the car’s windshield washer nozzles. I went through a couple sets of Costco discounted Bosch Icons; they began skipping at 1 month and fell apart after 6 (not to mention the tremendous aero drag their pronounced rib produces at speed, significantly slowing the downstroke and speeding the upstroke.) Trico Onyx and RainX had the same awful aero drag issue but to a lesser extent, were quieter with less streaking, had better contouring, and served well for 1 year. RainX wipers were better probably because I didn’t need to use them as much in rain due to the hydrophobic film they leave on the windshield. PIAA with metal frames have replaceable blade inserts that I’ve replaced once over nearly 3 years, they contour better to my windshield and wear better despite all the tiny rock chips in my windshield, they leave a hydrophobic coating on the windshield that’s similar to RainX’s, and they don’t suffer from highway aero drag. PIAA for the win. Second place goes to OE (Subaru) wipers. There, you got a better test and real consumer feedback.

I switched from Bosch to PIAA Silicone and my PIAA’s have lasted ~8 years now on one car. Working fine… I have memories of my Bosch Icons drying out and cracking after 1-2 years which still beat the pants off what I used before. I remember bc the Bosch’s were amazing when I installed them and they also are pretty bulky pieces of plastic, I felt bad throwing them out. Anyway YMMV and there are a lot of ppl praising Bosch here. I really liked them. My PIAA’s have just been otherworldly though. I also add RainX water repellent additive to my windshield wiper fluid. Honestly as long as my windshield isn’t super fouled, I barely have to use my wipers. Just spray my windshield a couple times when it starts raining, spread the wiper fluid with my wipers, and most water beads up and rolls right off. Maybe it biased my experiences somewhat; I mean, it’s theoretically possible that my PIAAs would perform worse than Bosch under other conditions, just that my PIAA’s last forever

[@mikelloyd2013]

⁠@@stevebean1234, I have been using PIAA’s exclusively for about ten years. Still using the first set I ever bought! I don’t feel that the newer blades are quite as good as the first blades I bought, but I still don’t think any other brand can come close to the durability of the PIAA blades.

The Bosch Icon goes on my wife's Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. Its her work vehicle for mail delivery( its also RHD). They last about 5-6 months and do a great job. Other we were replacing every 203 months, They get a work out from sleet and heavy snow, to rain and mud (dirt roads). While they may cost a bit more they help my wife see better. They also last longer. Great testing. Only thing I would add is snow and mud testing. :) Love your stuff.

I've been using Rainex for years, and they've given great service. The UV light here in Phoenix is pretty brutal on them however, but I think this would be the same for any brands. Bosch is pretty awesome, but they look like they are about 50% more expensive [ At least the ones that I compared ] . I'll continue to use the Rainex since the performance is pretty good for the price. Thx for doing this !

I have been purchasing Michelin wiper blades for years, I am 64. Based on my experience after using them on various vehicles, both cars and trucks, I will stay with them. I recently thought I'd give a set of Rain-X "beam style" wipers a try on my wife's TrailBlazer. They are not worth the money spent. As it sweeps across to the left (driver's side) it leaves a large patch of untouched windshield in the line of sight at the top third of the blade. The same occurs on the passenger blade. It does not contact the windshield on the return to the right in the same spots leaving a mass of water on the windshield. Luckily I use Rain-X in my washer reservoir so it helps. I tried swapping them side to side and it doesn't help. I will be grabbing some Michelins on my next trip to the store.

[@toddhoffmaster6057]

@@ernestpaul2484 Sounds more like a bad windshield, than wiper blade. I have seen that happen with my Chevy Duramax. The factory windshield was the best at repelling water and snow, then I had to replace it with a Safe lite and it does no compare and I had to use my wipers more with that windshield.

[@ernestpaul2484]

This the original windshield in the TrailBlazer and it is in great shape considering the year and miles. I have used other brands and had never had the problem before.@@toddhoffmaster6057

[@taylorsessions4143]

​@@ernestpaul2484that has been my experience with rain-x as well. I agree with the next guy that my windshield might not be perfect, but regardless I just can't waste more time with them. When I was younger I drove coupe/sedan size vehicles, but now that I have kids my vehicles are larger. Either rain x doesn't work as well on larger windshields or perhaps their quality went down. All I know is that they worked well for me a decade ago but now I'll never purchase them again.

I'm not sure about better, but the turtle wax spray and shine and ceramic spray that were best in that test work very well on the windshield. Plus it's easier to apply than rain x, and since you are already putting it on the paint, just spray it on the glass too.

I bought a pressure washer from Sams, it has a Honda commercial engine and a Simpson pump. It cost a little over $500 which was about $200.00 less than some other outlets. It is a great pressure washer. I also bought the turbo nozzle after watching it used on u tube, no regrets on either purchase.

[@20mcarroll02]

Personally I really like my greenworks electric pressure washer I bought from lowes. It even came with a turbo nozzle and a foam cannon. While I wouldnt reccomend it for heavy commercial jobs, it works great for what I bought it for, washing my trucks, the wife's tahoe, the camper, and the horse trailer. Also works good on our deck.

[@UNSC011001]

Project farm could take a wack at it if he chooses to, but the Obsessed Garage channel pretty much tested the majority of them. Maybe PF could do the low key name brands that have surprising stats like active jobsite or costway but the sunjoes & stuff are done. Id still be interested in the video. I personally know the Active is a sleeper in electric psi washers.
