Review on 🌧️ Rain-X 5079278-1 Latitude Wiper Blade - 21 inch (Single Pack) by Ben Daugherty

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Disappointed - Blades

Update 09.02.16: These blades already perform significantly worse than when they were new. I live in Southern California with a relatively mild climate and infrequent use of the wipers and they are already roaming. Contact of the passenger side blade tip is still a big problem (see below) and now the driver side blade base also leaves a lot of streaks. If I could ask for a refund I would. I just ordered a pair of Bosche brushes, I hope this solves the problem. These wiper blades are ok but I am not very happy with them. The first 3 inches of the passenger side blade does not contact the windshield until the blade has moved approximately 20º up the windshield. The length is correct, but the curve is wrong. As long as the slats conform to the shape of your windshield, they work great - wherever they touch, the movement is smooth and they shed water efficiently.

Pros
  • handy item
Cons
  • So far so good
