IME buying OEM wiper blades is the way to go. They're cheaper and perform better than premium products like rain-x wiper blades.
I live north of Barrie and have been using rain-x blades for over 10 years. I find it's less about the blade itself and more about changing them out regularly. I recently put a set of rain-x quantums on a sportwagen and have been very happy with them so far.
I like rainx latitude, not the cheaper ones. thThey last a long time and wipe evenly even in the desert so I haven't tried much else. They look like just one elongated curved stick don't mistake them for the same rainx brand but the value ones that look like a it has a mechanical web type thing on the arm. They do come with a silicone coating to repell water.
I use Rain-X Latitude Water Repellency 26 and 24" on mine and they work well. In south Florida we get those random torrential storms and I have no issues with them.
Rainx silicone has always treated me well I love them. A bit pricey at like 25 a blade but worth it for how clean they keep your windshield
I run RainX on my Forester and they've done really well
I currently have a set of Rain X blades on mine from Walmart, they were a PITA to install, but once installed they've been decent, they're starting to streak already, which is disappointing.
I currently have RainX Latitude wipers on mine, and they seem to be about due for replacement, bit I feel like they didn't perform well when they were new.
I wasn’t happy with the Rain-X blades.
Rain X isn’t any good. I used them once and they lasted at most 6 months.
