Any suggestions on a wiper blade that will actually work??? I've tried 3 different brands of blades and neither have kept my windshield clean.I have these Michelin blades on their now...and they're not very good.

I bought some off-brand, yes my blue ones, at Wally World that were silicone and they have been the best I have owned. I have had them for well over a year now and they are shot, but I can't find them anymore.
I also have some great ones that from Canadian Tire that are on my Blue X, but I can't find them here. One of the Candian guys gave them to me. They are really cool looking and work great.
Other than that, I have owned the Rain-X wipers, which are ok, but most others I have put on are crap.

Personally I purchased the TripleEdge wipers from Walmart (only retailer) cause I have never had a bad set (owned 3 from '90 to present) and of the lifetime warranty. I did happen to go one inch larger to 20 inch which makes a nice open view.

I've been using the Bosch Icon blades, I bought them a little over a year ago at Advance Auto. They're all rubber and work about the best that I've had so far. A bit pricy though, but they seem to last very, very well.

I've got the same set and, while pricey, are working out really well for me.. much better than the last few sets that I had.
