bosch micro edge is probably cheaper than the dealer, and probably better.

I had bad experience wit the Bosch MicoEgde, they streak after 2-3 weeks. WTF! I even used em on different cars, same results. Does this happen to me only???

They've always worked great for me. The refills are about $6 for 2 inserts, so you buy both sizes and you will have an extra set for when the first ones wear out (and they will after about 6 months or so, which is typical). I always just buy the refills and put them in my OEM Honda wiper frames.

I've had the Bosch Micro Edge Excel for a while now... no streaks or chatter and they wipe really well... I do find that when the windshield is really dirty they may streak a little.. like when I went on my 500 or so mile trip from so cal to nor cal.. but I usually wash my car weekly.. when the windshield is clean they wipe really well... I've tried Trico and other stuff.. it streaked even when clean after a few months

Bosch here

the driverside blade does skip a little. But works fine with a wet windshield. i wonder if its because my window needs cleaning or if the blade is misaligned...

other than that it works great.

My wipers take a beating here in CO with all the ice and snow that sticks to them. So I just buy the cheapest wiper blades and replace them like once every 1.5 months!
