Default who has foung a quality wiper blade?

I've been using the Bosch Icon blades but i am finding that they wear out rather quickly and end up streaking and not "squeeging" very well after about 3 months. I live in a snow area so that is also a consideration. Has any one tried the "Scrublades"? I think that they are available at Sears.

If I remember right, believe I just used the 16" because they was the shortest I could find. They work fine.

I haven't been able to find any "high quality" wiper blades in my size here so I just get the cheap ones and replace them every 6 months. But stay away from Bosch....I have them on my WJ and they already leave streaks. They're not even a month old!
