I'm giving it 3 stars because depending on your car and the way the car's attachment rod is, you're going to be installing it differently.I drive a 2014 Corolla Sport and it's a hook rod. The method to attach the blades does what I've been trying to avoid - for Canadian weather, I want a solid top so that you can't see the holes/gaps and crevaces in the attachment area (these areas accumulate a lot of snow and ice in the winter!)I don't understand why there's no cover for that area when this whole line is "stealth"??It's spring now so I won't be able to write a review based on winter weather, but for the summer, it'll suffice I guess... This investment in a nice set of wiper blades was supposed to last me a year, but with all the holes and crevaces, I know from countless past experiences this will not work for the winter....Please see posted pictures for the giant gaps where snow and ice WILL collect when winter comes.For those responding to the questions asked for this product, yes, there is a covering that avoids the gaps I'm seeing, but the coverings aren't available if you have to use the hook attachment.

I’ve been using SilBlades for years and thought they were the best. But I haven’t gotten the durability from those in recent years that I used to get years ago.Most recent issues include chattering which appears to be because of the angle of the blade to the windshield. So conventional guidance is that you may need to bend the wiper arm one way or the other in order to correct the angle.However - if the blade itself is actually warped - meaning the angle of the rubber wiper section of the blade (part that touches the glass) is slanted one way or the other - then bending the arm is not going to really help much. And you may end up breaking the arm if you go too far.This probably occurs due to age and heat. But I do believe some blades may be more susceptible to this warpage issue.Bottom line - these new blades solved the chatter as they are not “warped”. At least not yet! And I am hoping that because the rubber on these blades is a bit shorter than the silblades, it will be less likely to become warped and start “leaning” one way or the other rather than remaining perpendicular as when new. Time will tell!

The wiper was delivered quickly and has been working great.
