In October 1968 Donn Eisele flew with fellow astronauts Walt Cunningham and Wally Schirra into Earth orbit in Apollo 7. The first manned mission in the Apollo program and the first manned flight after a fire during a launch pad test killed three astronauts in early 1967, Apollo 7 helped restart NASA's manned-spaceflight program. Known to many as a goofy, lighthearted prankster, Eisele worked his way from the U.S. Naval Academy to test pilot school and then into the select ranks of America's prestigious astronaut corps. He was originally on the crew of Apollo 1 before being replaced due to injury. After that crew died in a horrific fire, Eisele was on the crew selected to return Americans to space. Despite the success of Apollo 7, Eisele never flew in space again, as divorce and a testy crew commander led to the three astronauts being labeled as troublemakers. Unbeknownst to everyone, after his retirement as a technical assistant for manned spaceflight at NASA's Langley Research Center in 1972, Eisele wrote in detail about his years in the air force and his time in the Apollo program. Long after his death, Francis French discovered Eisele's unpublished memoir, and Susie Eisele Black (Donn's widow) allowed French access to her late husband's NASA files and personal effects. Readers can now experience an Apollo story they assumed would never be written as well as the story behind its discovery. Purchase the audio edition.Binding Type: Hardcover

Best Blades hands down!
Size: 26" and 16", Style: Pack of 2, Size: 26" and 16", Style: Pack of 2
I purchased the Rain-X WeatherBeater 26” and 16” windshield wiper blade set to replace the factory blades on my vehicle, and installation was straightforward. The included adapters made it easy to get a secure fit, and I had both blades installed in just a few minutes.
After several weeks of use, they’ve performed well in both light rain and heavier downpours. The blades make consistent contact across the windshield, leaving very few streaks and improving visibility significantly compared to my old worn-out wipers. They are also relatively quiet, with no noticeable chattering or skipping.
One thing I appreciate is the value for the price. While these may not have all the features of premium beam-style blades, they provide reliable performance at a much more affordable cost. Durability remains to be seen over the long term, but so far they have held up well through changing weather conditions.
Overall, if you’re looking for a dependable replacement wiper blade set that installs easily and performs as expected, the Rain-X WeatherBeater blades are a solid choice. I’d purchase them again.

Good, reliable wipers.
Size: 24", Style: Pack of 1
I replace my wipers annually, so I don't need to spend a bunch of money on the countless gimmicky wipers that are out there. You used to be able to find Rain-X wipers just about anywhere, but the marketing morons pushing the gimmicky crap have pushed these out of stores. I am please to have found them on Amazon. I am also pleased to find that they are on Subscribe & Save.
Most of my vehicles use the same size wipers, so I can buy these throughout the year and replace them when they show up instead of trying to remember when their year is up.
I have always liked the performance out of Rain-X wipers. I think they last all year, remaining flexible the whole time and stay silent. That flexibility make them very effective at wiping the windshield. The cost for the wipers was great when they were around $6, but the greedy corporations keep raising prices, so now it much more. I think the value is still there, but the design has not changed. Still good, reliable quality.
The size is accurate. The installation is easy. There's instructions if you need them that are easy to follow.

Yes good choice
Size: 22", Style: Pack of 2
Perfect fit and they work great! It's been over a month using these and I would consider purchasing again. The wiper blades on previously looked a little bit more sharp but these outperform them by a long shot.

Rain Wipes
Size: 24" and 19", Style: Pack of 2
Nearly does the trick, where there's a better model option. Wished I had purchase the higher grade model, for this model doesn't wipe as well during moderate and heavy rain. However, for the price I got what I paid for, with my history of this brand, knowing it will have a bit of useable life.
It was a fit...Actual replacement. Easy to install. Smooth wipe, for there's no squecking.
