What are the best replacement wiper blades for our vehicles?

How much are you looking to spend?

I'm using the Bosch Icon blades and they perform well. It costs about $40 for the pair though and from reviews it seems they are not the most long lasting.
 
I prefer OEM since it looks simple. I hate wipers with their bulky logos on them that constantly remind me of what brand of wipers I have everytime I'm driving lol
 
I use Bosch, but all rubber breaks down and the best is the cheapest one in which you replace routinely. I find the "single" pressure blades press harder on the glass vs the "regular" type.
 
I use the Rain-X latitude blades. Have them for over a year now with no issues. Still works very good.
 
I bought the Goodyear brand from Costco for my Sienna. Works well. It was like $7 buy one get one free.
 
I just went to costco (didnt pick up blades yet) but was asking if they could put nitrogen in my tires and the guy claims that there is no real benefit? i understand its costco and all but what do people feel on this. I know im going to get it done for winter regardless but for those who have monitored their pressures with both just curious.

Speaking of which, Ed, i may need you to PM me that contact you originally gave me to get it done.

I wish I could tell you; I was going to do it 2 years ago until I found this on CR.

Yea slight improvement... on a percentage basis it may read a little better. But looks like it couldn't really hurt either. I was thinking more of an impact in colder climates more so than like yearly comparisons. My psi seems to fluctuate a lot with these random temp drops in chicago.

I'm like Aaron, in that I like the originals. They are just as good as the high end bosh icons, but without name branding. I don't like to my passenger and I to be reminded what brand of wipers they are. They don't pay me to advertise. I like the clean look very much. Originals cost a little over $20 for both if you order online, which I don't consider bad at all considering some very nice wiper blades in comparison run much more.
