Does not do what it’s made to do ! Wipe ha

The price on these wipers are by no means cheap. It cost about 90 to put a set on your car. The claim and what they are made of and what that reputation holds as ceramic and silicone you would think this would be a very quality wiper and last a long time. Serious engineering flaws. On mine specifically the section of the wiper directly in the center opposite of where the arm attaches completely misses any wiping ability. About 4” wide and right in the drivers line of sight. No good ! Money was…

Pros
  • They are well built, easy to install, and look great.
Cons
  • Did not fit

Leave a residue on my windshield

Not sure why, and what’s the problem, but both wiper blades leave visible residue on my windshield. They clean the windshield great, but this residue stays until I clean the windshield with a window cleaner and a rug.

Pros
  • Excellent product trust me the best stop looking this is it.
Cons
  • Ceramic coating may peel off over time

Nice blades but expensive

Got these last minute for a trip. Looked for mid priced blades but were either sold out or too long to ship. Gave these a go on my 2003 Excursion. Install was easy. Ended up raining on part of the road trip and the blades worked well, no noise or streaks. Will see how they do longer term after sitting out a bit.

Pros
  • ALL-WEATHER: This super premium silicone windshield wiper has unmatched protection against ozone, UV rays, water, and ice making it the most advanced windshield wiper blade on the market today.
Cons
  • May produce a loud noise during use

Enter your vehicle information in the Revain fitment tool to ensure you get something that fits. My 2017 GMC Sierra has an unusual type of clip to mount the wiper blade. This Trico wiper blade is one of only a handful I've found that actually fit. The high price might turn some people off. However, these are silicone wiper blades from a reputable company. Silicone wiper blades are known to last at least two or three times as long as rubber wiper blades. These Trico wiper blades are very much…

Pros
  • ‎2.89 ounces
Cons
  • May not fit consistently on all sections of windshield

Very expensive for one wiper

As a wiper it does a good job. It mounts securely to the wiper arm, streaks aren't an issue, it conforms nicely to the surface of the windscreen . does what a wiper should do.But $35 for one blade? I can't imagine the performance being worth that.

Pros
  • ‎21 x 2 x 1 inches
Cons
  • May not last as long as advertised

Lasts A Long Time - my new review

The sample wiper sent for testing arrived with the clear packaging all torn up. However the wiper and mounting adapter were unscratched and in fine condition. A testament to how well made these are, perhaps. The wiper blade comes protected with a white hard plastic sheath over it to protect it until it is installed. I've had similar silicon wipers installed on one of our vehicles for over 5 years now, and they are still as good as the day purchased. The remain flexible and pliable for many…

Pros
  • Beam design evenly distributes pressure across the entire length of the blade, maximizing contact with the windshield
Cons
  • May not operate effectively at high wind speeds

High in center in my review

The wiper blades were high in the center, right under the arm attaching point, and didn't contact the windshield for on third of the way up. They didn't work on my car which has a rater flat windshield.

Pros
  • Replacement Parts
Cons
  • Some customers reported poor durability

Best Wiper Blades I had Yet

I decided to get wiper blades and install myself due to what the service center was charging. Even though there are cheaper ones on the market I bought these high-end ones since they were still not even half the price my dealer was charging for very low-quality wipers and installation. I bought front wipers and back at the same time. Very easy to install and after months of use in the Seattle rain working great! Very clear windshield every time. Definitely the best wipers I've ever had and nice

Pros
  • Silicone material adheres seamlessly to the windshield, preventing streaking and skipping
Cons
  • May clog or become blocked by debris

Holding Up Well and Performs Better than OEM

I'm one of those people who buy almost all OEM parts, even windshield wiper blades. But this does outperform the Motorcraft (which are good blades) and also has the right fitting that is actually snug for the wiper (Ford/Lincoln/Mercury) that many companies don't provide.

Pros
  • ‎90-160
Cons
  • May not work as effectively in heavy rain or snow

Perfect fit: my feedback

I've needed a new windshield wiper for a while now and this one works great. My husband installed it very quickly and it works flawlessly. Perfect design for my Ford Explorer. Cleans my windshield perfectly and doesn't squeak anymore! I lived with the squeak for too long. This is a good quality wiper and I hope it lasts a long time. Very happy with it.

Pros
  • you mite want to clean wipers with a windex or some kind of cleaner.. 1st.. was a film on mine
Cons
  • Expensive compared to other brands

Deceiving description and picture of product

I don't usually write these however the description and pic lead you to belive you are ordering a pair of wipers imagine my surprise to find 1 in a oversized box had to double check my order yes I made the mistake however again was inclined to think it was a pair ?!

Pros
  • ‎Vehicle Specific Fit
Cons
  • May scratch windshield due to hardness of ceramic coating
