What brand / type of replacement wiper blades are people using now? Is Bosch still the way to go?
I hate blades that the sun rots-out after 2 years...

I am using trico over here, I do not know if it is sold in the US.
They are good quality wipers, better than the Bosch I have used.

PIAA silicon impregnated blades. Great!!!

Have only had 'em about 4-5 months so no idea of longevity, but no streaking yet. Absolutely silent.

Consumer Reports rates Wiper Blades as follows.

In order, these top six were all recomended:

These were rated lower. Tripledge was panned:

Performancewise, they also recommend the blades (usually sold individually and include the rubber element that contacts the windshield, along with the assembly that attaches to the vehicle's wiper arm) over refills (usually sold in pairs, include only the rubber and slide into your existing blade).

OEM: "The Toyota blades remained excellent even after six months and cleaned better overall than any we tested."

Personal note: I think the blades I got with my RX sucked.

I swapped them for Anco 31's within the first month.
