If you mean the Icons, I tried them, didn't like the way they wore out so quickly, then tried the Anco version, and didn't care for them either for the same reason.
I went back to the Bosch Excel, which I'd used before.
I managed a local Autozone (until 3 weeks ago), so I got to try them all.

Bosch Icons. Yes. Awesome wipers (even at very high speeds -ahem-) but... they do wear rather quickly. I did make it through most of the winter here in western Washington before they started to loose the edge, but Trico's recommendation for wipers is that they should be replaced every three months regardless of use.

I replace my Icons twice a year, once in the beginning of Spring and again right before Winter hits and never have any wear problems. If they start to streak, I use some Invisible glass on a microfiber and wipe them down. Seems to bring them right back to life.
They've also been known to scratch your windshield. Friend on mine has them on his 05 and he's unhappy about the coverage over the passenger side, and commented he's beginning to see scratches on his windshield.
