Review on Frameless wiper blade Bosch Aerotwin AR500S 500 mm / 500 mm, 2 pcs. by Wiktor Popiel ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It's the best purchase I ever made, I will definitely do it again.

I like the design, reliability, durability (by the way, I bought a car with CarFashion wipers installed - they also departed with dignity, did not creak, but the limit stop flew off and the rubber band began to move out). Bosch didn't have this problem. Note: Due to the asymmetric aerodynamic spoiler profile, these wiper blades are only suitable for vehicles where both wipers are parked to the right. Right-hand drive and cross-wiper vehicles must be equipped with either symmetrical or specialized wiper models. For my car, the left wiper blade should be 550 mm long, the right one - 500 mm, but I take the same 500 mm each, and then change depending on wear, putting the one that is better on the driver's half. In my opinion, such savings are safer than waiting for both wipers to wear out, since the field of clear vision (needed to assess distances to distant objects and road bumps), especially at speed, is still in front of the driver, and a slight deterioration in the clarity of the peripheral vision does not affect the reaction to side objects (the appearance of cars and pedestrians from the side is noticeable with peripheral vision even through icy and cloudy glass). But I urge you NOT to SAVE on SECURITY!

Pros
  • Quality, reliability, durability. Aerodynamic shape of the clamping surface.
Cons
  • In winter, you need to be more careful - the plastic of the retainer cover becomes brittle in the cold and can be broken (including when clearing ice), but it continues to hold on and hold the wiper, so I don’t lower the score.

Some pros: Good brushes made in Belgium. Cons below: The price is high, of course. But points helped.
