Wiper blades MICHELIN or OEM Volvo
I live in the PNW. I buy Costco wipers only. Each pair has lasted me 2ish years each.
Pros: lasted 2 years
I have had good experience with Michelin silicone from Walmart.
Pros: good experience
The michelin ones they sell are pretty good and come with adapters so that they fit pretty much any arm. I'm in a '19 so I don't know if they switched arms going into Gen 6 but they work fine on mine, and about 2-3 times a year they go on sale from 9.99 to 6.99. I buy an extra set and keep them in the trunk.
Pros: pretty good, universal fit
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
The Michelin blades that CostCo sell fit the Polestar great.
Pros: great fit
Michelin Guardian Hybrid Wiper Blade, often $6.99 on sale.
Pros: often on sale
I bought some new Michelin Guardian Hybrid wiper blades the other day at Costco. The passenger side blade works perfectly however the blade on the drivers side it seems the tip of it (8-10 inches or so) is not making contact with the windshield. It leaves a triangle shape at the bottom center of the windshield and it also doesn't clear off other water that it should be clearing from the passenger blade so it just runs down. I am 99% sure I have the right size for my 07 Accord - Driver side 26 & passenger 18.
Pros: passenger side works perfectly
Cons: driver side not making contact, leaves triangle shape, doesn't clear water
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
Do NOT get the Michelins at Costco. Worse blades EVER. Don't wipe at all and noisy.
Cons: don't wipe, noisy, worst ever
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
The Costco blades are awful on my wife's Civic. They last maybe a month before they start streaking and chattering.
Cons: streaking and chattering
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
I find the Michelin wiper blades have really gone downhill. The last couple years, something has changed. I find that the rubber gets hard or is hard and they make a lot of noise.
Cons: rubber gets hard, noisy
Vehicle:
Ford
All I can say is I'm pretty sure the Michelin branded ones from Costco don't work for our cars.
Cons: don't work for our cars
