BOSCH 22A17A ICON Beam Wiper Blades - Driver and Passenger Side - Set of 2 Blades (22A & 17A)

I have a 2010 Nissan Versa hatchback. Never had to change the original wiper blades, but they were falling apart a couple months ago.Finally, after doing research, I bought the Bosch Icon 26A and 13A and I am so glad they fit correctly! At first, when my husband installed them, we thought they didn't fit because there are two little plastic notches that are in the way of the U-hook. Then, we found out there's more room for the U-hook to be pushed in. So, make sure to pull the wiper blades all the way down. The latches on the wiper blades should just click in easily instead of force. That's what we learned.We tested them by spraying water with a hose onto the windshield and turning on the windshield wipers. The windshield is clear, no streak.I can't wait for the rainy weather!

This is the only wiper i buy now for both of my cars. I replace wipers about every 18 months; living in SoCal means they don't see a ton of use. They are more often utilized for cleaning the windshield instead of clearing rain off.Easy to install, just pop the old one off and slide this one into the U-shaped part of the wiper arm.I may update this later; this is my first year of garaging my cars, so they may hold up even longer being parked out of the sun during the day/weekend.

I purchased these after a set of Subaru OEM blades started streaking badly after perhaps 90 days of light use. I’m now highly skeptical of the Subaru OEM parts which have become low quality items based on my limited experience. I’m not a car guy and have never had to think about wiper blades before other than to get OEM blades swapped in during an oil change/tire rotation. These Icons are better than the OEM set from day one. I cannot comment on longevity but they were also a tad less expensive than OEM though not inexpensive. If you have the patience and time, there may be value options that work in this application but I don’t have either. I just need to know that I can see out the windshield while driving. The Bosch Icon blades have achieved that.

I've been sticking with the Bosch ICON blades for a while. After trying many others, these are the best. So after getting a different car and needing new wiper blades, I ordered these. Here's my new problem. My passenger side wiper come from the corner, and not the middle of the windshield. Given the aerodynamic shape of the blade, it being backwards would probably do more lift than downforce while driving. You also can't turn the clip around. After speaking with Bosch tech support, they said they do not make ICON blades for cars like mine. He suggested the Evolution blades because they go either way. So keep that in mind if you have wipers like the ones in the photo.

Had a hard time figuring out how to install. The picture instructions have no verbiage and are small and are hard to interpret.. Just installed so don't have any information on longevity. Original wipers on the Jeep lasted 3 1/2 years and were working fine, just replaced because I didn't want any failures during a blizzard. They do clear the windshield just fine and work well in heavy rain.

I'm kind of surprised by the performance of these blades. I just put them on and since I can see when they were delivered I can tell exactly how long they'll last. Longevity is a big issue for me so I'll report back when they start to fail. The difference was magnificent. They absolutely scrubbed the windshield. I wonder if other reviewers are having issues because they either: 1) did not install them correctly, 2) have weak springs in the wiper arms themselves, which limits the amount of pressure the wiper can place on the window, or 3) haven't cleaned their windshield in a decade. Tree sap, dirt, road sludge, etc. can build up on the windshield which will limit the wiper's ability to clear water. On one car there was no treatment, just clean, and on the other rain-x and clean. Both had stellar performance with these blades. Will report back on longevity.

Bosch makes the best wipers making them worth the extra cost. More importantly, the adapters they use are better than the cheap economy blades which I have had issues with in the past. My blades have the j-hook style arms, in which, the Bosch blades perfectly slide down into and lock into place, then a top cover is snapped into place making them double locked onto the arm just like the OEM blades for my car. Bosch blades tend to last longer than other blades as well because the rubber is treated to resist UV light another plus. Overall, a good buy!

The last set I purchased lasted over a year before streaking on the windshield. Last way longer than any other brand I have tried. You get what you pay for.

Only had these installed on my SUV for about 3 months, with about 1 month of average Montreal weather (snow, a bit of ice and lots of road grime).Although these wiper blades worked well early on (before winter hit) and cleaned the glass nice and evenly, they are not performing to my expectations against road grime, barely a few months later. They leave streaks towards the top of the windshield and at the bottom middle of the glass. I need to use a lot of washer fluid to get the dirt off, as they are not evenly and firmly pressing against the glass. They are very quiet, however (for now).I was a regular user of Trico Ice blades in the past, which are much less expensive and they performed better than these Bosch blades. I will be switching back to Trico after these are ready to be replaced as the Bosch are not worth the extra money.Very disappointing results.

The media could not be loaded.  I purchased these wipers a few weeks ago and thought they were good. Now that it rained I was able to test them. You will see and here in the video they jump/skip.Hoping someone will be able to help.

I bought these based on all the great reviews. My review is based solely on winter performance (or lack thereof). My stock wipers performed better than these in winter driving conditions which is not acceptable for wipers costing this much. You're better off buying a cheap pair of winter wipers and using a different set in the warmer months. I will never waste money on these ever again.

After carefully researching ‘top rated wiper blades’ and ordering these I installed them on my vehicle. They installed easily in seconds using the mounting brackets that came already on them out of the box meaning I didn’t have to use the supplied adapters as they fit straight from their packaging on to my vehicle. I then turned the wipers on to test them and one wiper immediately broke off and fell on the ground. Upon inspecting it I observed that it has a very thin (possibly 2 mm or so) plastic loop that is all that exists to hold the mounting bracket in place. That loop of plastic had shattered and broken, keep in mind that this occurred during a warm fall day so I really now have my doubts as to how they will hold up when winter comes and that little plastic loop is also cold and brittle. Top marks to Amazon as they are shipping me a replacement set. I will give the blades another shot since I probably just received either a defective blade or one that had unknowingly been damaged. I am curious as to how they will or won’t last in the cold of winter as that plastic mount as shown in my attached pictures appears to be very weakly engineered.

Outperformed all other wipers I’ve tried, including more expensive silicon ones. Last year and a half I had an Icon on one side and top rated CDN tire blade on the other.Both performed the same initially. About 6 months in CDN tire brand started streaking, but could be revived with a good cleaning.Bosch Icon didn’t require cleaning, it was still good.After summer, winter, summer, fall in Winnipeg MB (harsh winters), the Icon was still close to new and the other was toast.Replaced with another Icon. Sale price on Amazon was a few $ cheaper than sale price CDN Tire.Car washed every week, which will extend the life of wipers.
