Review on 🧼 Rain-X 5079275-1 Latitude Windshield Wiper Blade - 18-inch (Individual) by Tom Goodlow

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not so good in cold weather

I needed new wiper blades for my Nissan Frontier and decided to try these as they had good reviews. I have used PIAAs before but found them too expensive. I installed the Rain-x slats in November and I can use them in all weather conditions. They began to work well in the rain and snow, cleaning the windshield without streaks. After a few months, however, they no longer adhere to the windshield, and there are a few spots that don't get cleaned. I think maybe it has something to do with extremely cold temperatures making them less flexible. One of the blades came loose from its mount when I lifted it to clear snow off the windshield and while it snapped easily I'm not sure I want to trust it so I just got a new PIAA set ordered. So bottom line, they probably work well in warm weather, but I can't recommend them for winter use.

Pros
  • Wiper and Washer
Cons
  • Not bad
