I don't believe they're called Icon in Europe (at least in France it's Aerotwin) but they've been my favorites for a few years. I find they have a nice pressure over the whole length and age well.
This is going to be highly dependent on your vehicle and the geometry of its windshield. I know the Icons are really good on some cars and horrible on others depending on the curvature of the windshield.
I've used both the Bosch Icon and PIAA Si-Tech over the years on my cars. From my personal experience living in the Pacific Northwest (Seattle), the PIAA Si-Tech seems to last longer and the the silicone coating works better than the Bosch. That's just my experience, though.
I swear by PIAA silicone blades. They have cheaper ones too, some of their inserts work directly in oem blades. Love how I can get 5 or so years out of them before feeling the need to change them.
I've bought so many Icons. At least 3-4 Cars with 1-2 pairs.
My Michelins developed a memory staying bent they way the rest which creates a terrible skipping noise at the start of every up-wipe. Still does fine visibility-wise though. Gonna get Icons now I think.
But I believe newer cars will alternate how the wiper rests.
