Updated review
Bought wipers in november '21 after reading reviews. Was working well, no streaks/noise. However now (march/april '22) wipers are skipping and very noisy. Contacted support given their promise of customer satisfaction but only suggestion was to clean the windshield which I had done already. Was expecting to get at least 12 months out of it so fairly disappointed.
EDIT:
I was given replacement wiper refills after my review was posted. The installation was easy and straightforward, however the performance was still not what it was when I got i...
Read moret new in november; the bottom portion of the blade was still skipping albeit better. This makes me believe it could be that the wiper arm has lost tension rather than the rubber losing performance. At least now it is useable and the noise is not as bad, hopefull will last the full 12 months.

Started out well, but after 5 months on the vehicle they have started to squeal (Audi Q7). I have emailed Uniwipers and sent a video of the noise to them. I have cleaned them, made sure the windscreen is clean, and the noise keeps coming back. I have been in touch with Uniwiper and will see what happens. I have not had an issue with the rear wiper which I purchased at the same time.
I researched these before buying, but would not be going out of my way to purchase them for my 4wd when they are due. For the cost of these I would expect a long...
Read moreer life with them. My wifes car is always washed and kept clean in the garage and does minimal travel. Mine on the other hand is driven every day, sits in the elements and I do not have this problem with my wipers and I dont wash my car half as much as my wifes. The were easy to fit, and delivered quickly, but I just expected a bit more from them for the price. If they continue to squeal on the screen, I will have to replace them as the noise is very annoying to listen to while driving. Uniwiper are sending some new rubbers and windscreen polish which is great, we will see how this works. I am happy with the great response from Uniwipers so I hope this solves my problem and I can update accordingly.- 2 reviews

Ok, but could be much better!
Overall the wipers work well as you'd expect new wipers to. The only issue is because the wipers are kept in the packet for however long in the warehouse, they loose the curvature and as such they don't fully curve to the windscreen. Therefore they don't clean the edges properly. I tried folding them with my hands before installing but this didn't help.
The other issue is around installing onto the wiper arms of the front ones. The fit was not very good and I had to really "yank" them in and at one point thought I was going to break something.
I'll come back and update after 4-6 months of use. They are ok for now, but I'll try something else first before I decide to come back for more.

Terrible Product
Bought the wipers for my Nissan Murano.
They are obviously not rigid enough as they vibrate wildly at the bottom of the wiper.
Contacted support and they said it was because I had film on the windscreen and I needed to clean it. Did that, still the same issue.
Finally admitted it was a known problem and they would send me a replacement when the "new Rubber" arrived.
Waited a month no replacement. Contacted support and they said they sent the replacement to some address in QLD (i.e. Not my Address)
Finally got the replacement (Not the whole wiper, just the rubber insert) and does the same thing. For all the hassle this was worth, I will just buy Bosch for a few $ more.

Fit can be better
The front wiper blades don't have enough/un-even pressure to sit against the windscreen. Two pointy ends don't have any contact with the windscreen at all. The rear blade attachment leave a small gap between the housing and the insert, make it wobbly. It has done a good job in removing water tho, but I guess every new blades do the same.
UPDATE 1: Tried to bend the edges of the blades, as suggested by Uniwiper, to make the blade edges touch with the windscreen. It is better now, but there is still a small gap there, not as big as before, seems more acceptable.
Hi BlackLab,
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. ...
Read more From what we have experienced, this can happen to a small percentage of vehicles where the windscreen has a more of an aerodynamic contour. I see you got my email and you have made the suggested adjustment so the wipers can make better contact with your windscreen. Regards, Henrygood wipers but

Hi Cher,
Thanks for your review. We tried to reach out to you to get this resolved but have not had a response back....
Read more We provide a 12 month warranty for all wiper blades sold, we are more than happy to have this resolved for you. The wiper blade rubber is soft and be damaged if not maintained well, there are also many factors that can influence wiper performance and noise (contaminants, arm adjustment, windscreen coating, level of moisture, exposure of rubber to UV to name a few). Cleaning the rubber and windscreen fix most issues relating to performance and noise. As you drive; you'll get debris, bitumen, wax, tar, road grime, tree sap, and other foreign matter or contaminants end up on your windscreen which then sticks to the wiper rubber affecting its performance and may cause a squeak or shudder. Wiper and windscreen maintenance is required to keep the wiper blades working optimal. We also include a washer tablet to reduce any noise and prolong longer wiper life. A quick wipe down of the windscreen and the wiper blades using warm soapy water will restore the blade back to original, and in some cases, its required that you polish the windscreen to restore the wiper performance.
