Why anyone would pay Bosch prices I don't know?

Yes - you do get what you pay for.
I tried the cheap blades - once - (not from Aldi, I must admit) - for about 2 weeks then I couldn't stand it any more and bought the Bosch flat blades that I had before and didn't really appreciate.
Intermittent wipe at high speed was smeary with a single wipe of the cheapos.
With the built in deflector on the Bosch you also get much less flies hitting the screen - it must create more down pressure on the screen too, but it was the extra flies that really bothered me.
The Bosch Aerotwin blades are around £20 a set and I for one wouldn't buy any others.
However I do accept that it depends on the speeds and the annual mileage that one does.
Singvogel.
