Been using them ever since.
They are not as good as they used to be. But then again what is?
Agreed, my dad and grandpa always used anco at their shop years ago, back when they used to rebuild the wiper blade.

None of them are as good as they used to be. I've had some of the Rain-x beam blades be bad right out of the package on vehicles for friends of mine. At the prices they get for them, they should at least last 6 months or more.

I am not really that picky when it comes to blades. I feel 6 months on the Anco Winter blades is not a problem. I just push it to a year.
I have a buddy who is like super picky. Get annoyed as hell the first time they smear and will replace them.
Tried a lot of blades until he found ones he liked. I know it is one of the Bosch ones and guessing one of the top of the line ones.
But don't know exactly which one.
