Bosch icon and replace them every couple of years. Fresh blades work great.

Bosch are the only good ones IMO
I’ve used the Bosch Icon on a few cars and really like them but they are ridiculously priced.
I’ve used them for brake pads, rotors, and spark plugs. I haven’t had a problem with them.
I live in NorCal. A few years an O'Reilly's employee suggested saving my Bosch for the wintertime and use my Rain-X or Michelin wiper blades in the summer as the UV rays are the biggest single factor in their deterioration. Now using my first pair of Bosch into it's third NorCal winter and still holding up great!
The icons just keep going and don't harden or get shredded as much, i clean them with a solvent (WD40) every few months and they are back to good as new.
Bosch is still usefull i use Rear disks since 25k km , and still good
Car needed an alternator - Golf 1.8 TSI Was told there was nothing available OEM (Bosch) in Canada, and couldn't tell me when one would be available. Was quoted CAD$1800!! + install labor. Found a used OEM one at the scrap yard for CAD$50....
definitely avoid Bosch spark plugs. I'm not personally a fan and I've seen plenty fail. Unless they were original in the motor (usually Subarus don't use Bosch), I'd stick with NGK or Denso in my opinion.
Contrary to popular comments, I have moved away from Bosch. I consider that quality went down and they do not last long.
