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

After only 1 week of use in warm weather (40-60 degrees) the rubber lip broke completely. I don't remember a wiper blade failing after 1 week and I'm disappointed because I bought this 'premium' model specifically to make it last longer. I don't know about blades so can't offer an alternative, but other reviewers suggested other brands in Spring 2015 after their blades also failed.

I bought several of these and several spare parts. They work great until they stop. The rubber blade itself appears to be in two parts, with a rubber band connected to a larger band. On every single one I've had on my Jeep, if you turn on the wipers at high speed during a rainstorm, the small strip of rubber that contacts the windshield slips out under the centrifugal force of the wipers, rendering the wipers unusable. and you have to turn them off to avoid scratching the glass. The only…

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
