Anco wiper blades called a CR best buy

Even the OEM ones don't seem to last as long these days.

For a streak-free windshield, Consumer Reports recommends a wiper made
by Southfield-based Federal-Mogul Corp.

The magazine tested and ranked 15 models of wiper blades for its
November issue, and Federal-Mogul's Anco 31 Series model offered one
of the best values.

The Anco ranked third in overall performance, with wipers from Valeo
and RainX taking the first two spots.

But Anco was one of two wipers to be named a Consumer Reports Best
Buy. The Anco model costs $7 a piece for an 18-inch wiper and $10 for
a 24-inch wiper, compared with $9 and $15 for the top-ranking Valeo
model.

Consumer Reports, which had its staffers test the wipers on their
vehicles, suggests drivers change their vehicle's windshield wipers
every six months, when even many of the best models started to leave
streaks.
