How to Choose Wiper Blades: Select the appropriate length of wiper blades based on the size of your vehicle's windshield. Larger windshields require longer wiper blades, while smaller ones need shorter blades. This ensures complete coverage without dead spots, as overly short wiper blades may miss areas. Opt for highly practical wiper blades. Although many factory-installed metal wiper blades perform well, their rubber inserts wear out over time and replacement can be cumbersome and costly.

Beam-style wiper blades are currently the most common, but their prices vary widely. Very cheap wiper blades tend to wear out quickly, while higher-priced ones offer better quality and can typically last 2-3 years. Whenever possible, select branded wiper blades. Branded wipers are more durable and sturdy, albeit slightly more expensive. They last longer and come with better after-sales service, including free replacement during trial periods offered by many reputable brands.
