Review on Bosch 17B Wiper Blade Longer by Justin Peck

function and form. The only wipers I use on my cars.

I have used Bosch symbols on all my cars since they came out years ago. As do many people. I've tried different brands and types of wipers but I find these icons give me the overall performance I'm looking for. I change the wipers on my cars every year at the end of summer because I live in the Central Valley where summers are in the triple digits and the air is pretty dry. So summer affects the squeegees. I've never had any problems with Bosch Icons. Every pair I've bought has been great and worked well. I stick with them because they have many features that other wipers don't have. These wipers are frameless so they wrap around the contour of the windshield rather than just sitting on top of the windshield which can leave water streaks on the windshield. They work very well at high speeds. Some wipers did not take aerodynamics into account, so at high speeds the wipers begin to lift slightly from the windshield and lose the ability to effectively remove all water from the windshield. However, with the design of these Bosch icons. They push into the windshield at high speeds so you don't lose power. They do not cause any wind noise even at high speeds. Their sleek design is simply amazing. Most importantly, these windshield wipers do a fantastic job removing every drop of water from the windshield. I recommend taking this and some RainX Wash Liquid. The additive ensures that water collects on the windows and makes it easier for the wipers to remove it completely. Icons work great without them, but the addition makes them that much better.
