 - I like the designInstallation was easy and the blade do their job. I like the one-piece design over the OEM blades on my Toyota. That said; I remember the old days when you could buy replacement wipers for a couple of dollars instead of replacing the entire blade assembly. These blades really stick to the windshield over the entire length. Rating: - Excellent wipersThey work well, and are a cinch to put on. Very happy -- no more streaking or noise when wiping my windows :) Rating: - Bosch 4820 Wiper BladesExcellent blades. Well built, solid frame, holds tight to windshield, wipes clean. A+++ Rating: - Outstanding itemI love this windshield wiper, and that's not something I ever thought I'd say. I have a 1994 Mitsubishi Diamante and one of the things I disliked about it were the windshield wiper. They ALWAYS made noise. I'd buy new inserts and new blades and it made no difference. I bought a set of these bracketless wipers because there was a rebate deal and I got them 2 for 1. I'm not a big windshield wiper aficionado, but I figured what the hell. They are not only quiet, but they work a hell of a lot better then any other wiper I've seen. They are well worth the money, and my wife insisted I get another set for our other vehicle. Rating:  - Good wiper, Made in ChinaI deducted (2) stars because this product was made in China, whereas other Bosch windshield wiper products are manufactured in Germany or Belgium. Amazon should start listing this information. However, if country-of-origin doesn't matter to you as a consumer, read on. Bracketless wiper means the rubber blade is not suspended in the ubiquitous metal frame. The blade is attached to a strong yet flexible length of plastic with a bulb in the center to hook your wiper. Unlike traditional wipers, the dual springs keep the blade real taut -- the whole wiper is bowed out of the package -- and it hugs the surface of the window evenly its entire length. Wiper action is butter smooth and quiet, zero streaking. Good spring/summer/fall wiper. Stick to a metal bracketed wiper for ice and snow where this sort of product does not perform well. In anything other than rain or light snow I give it (2) stars.
