Maybe the springs on the actual wiper arm are weak/bad?

Are you just replacing the refill (rubber) or the blade itself?

I buy the expensive blades. I can't remember the brand but they are really thick, but flexible. They have no frame, and they run around $20 a piece. I've had them for 6 months with no issues and they work better than every other set I've ever had.

i live in canada and i went to Canadian Tire and bought some Reflex wiper blades... they have no hinges and or arms.... just the wiper blade on this curvy piece of medal... they worked good till i lifted my driver one off the windshield and slapped it down and bent it under itself... bent it back and it still wokrs but there is a streak that happens... kinda sucks but whatever
