Awesome.
Why aren’t these available in The UK? They are brilliant! Never thought I would get so excited about a windscreen wiper.

Didn't even last 2 months before streaking
I decided to give these improved models over the previous Latitudes, which were horrible, a try. These were amazing at first, but that was short lived and it was nothing but disappointment. I installed these on May 18, 2021 and it's now July 11, 2021. After less than two months, they've began to streak. The streaks are somewhat subdued, but very noticeable and even glares, especially if it's bright out or you're driving at night and lights hit it. I followed the proper break in instructions.It is now September 20 and the streaking has gotten worse. The wiper also wobbles as it glides along the windshield.For the price of these wipers, I could have bought two to three sets of another reputable brand that would last at least a year before streaking and needing to be replaced.

More water-repellent than most other wipers, but they do leave streaks.
I've been using the Rain-X wiper blades for 2 months now. Well, they cost more than many other brand-name blades like the Michelin Stealth, and the water-repellent technology really keeps water off the windshield for a couple of seconds, so that you can make your wipers run at low cycle unless in heavy rain.Save for their high price, they do have their drawbacks: In conjunction with ball joints on the wiper arms, you have to be quite cautious when installing them: Use the right hole (there are two of them), and make sure twice that the blades fit firmly. A small clip, which comes with the wipers, helps, but you'll still have to check for a second time after their first "productive" use: In my case, one of the blades got loose and had to be re-attached.Another issue Rain-X will have to address is that the wipers do leave visible streaks on the windshield, which disappear after a couple of seconds. In the darkness, such streaks may impair your vision when a light source beams at them.

Not Built for Rainy Vancouver Weather
Not really happy with what you get for what you pay for. Perhaps it works in places like California, but it only lasted two months in rainy Vancouver weather.It worked fine for about a month with efficacy of Rain-X repellent, but I had serious visibility issues with hazing/streaking as efficacy of Rain-X wore off. Although it was beam wiper, it did not come in full contact with some parts of my windshield and left some parts unwiped. I tried getting Rain-X stripped multiple-times and reapplied Rain-X from a bottle, but still had streak issues.At the end of the day, I went back to cheap Michelin hybrid wiper from Costco and hazing/streaking issue was immediately fixed.
