Review on πŸš— Bosch Excel+ 41913 Wiper Blade - 13 Inch (Individual) by George Robinson

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Blades not as described

I'm not sure what's going on with these Icon blades sold by Revain, but these blades claim to have an asymmetric spoiler, meaning the small spoiler on an eccentric must be blade (which also resembles my factory blades). Twice the Bosch Icon 22OE blade I got from Revain had a spoiler in the middle of the blade. My truck also uses an 18OE blade which I also ordered from Revain and which had the spoiler on the edge like my factory blades. It made my blades mismatch. So I called Bosch tech support and spoke to the guy there and he confirmed that the spoiler on these leaves should run along one edge and not through the middle. He said that maybe the evolution blade was packed in the wrong box but that it happened to me 2 times, I think that's a different issue. I ended up running to a reputable auto parts store nearby and bought a 22OE blade and an asymmetric rim spoiler as it should be. One from the parts store also came with a few more adapters so they could work on many different vehicle models and the Revain blade only came with one pre-fitted to the blade. I have attached a photo of the Amazon blade that came with the spares stock blade I purchased. The top blade is the Amazon blade and the bottom is the parts storage (this is how they should all look). I have also attached photos of the packaging. I just don't understand why they are so different so I'm giving that 1 star.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No automatic
