Ever since new we've had problems with wiper blades on the forester and have gone through about 5 different sets in 3.5 years trying to find something that works and isn't annoying . The ones with two metal edge strips never gripped the rubber and the rubber has always worked it's way out and hit the edge of the windscreen after a couple of uses, the ones with integrated plastic frame/rubber were never the correct length and always shuddered.....
Earlier this week I took the OE brackets off the wiper arms and replaced them with bosch aerotwins, and after testing in the rain over the past few days I finaly have a set of wipers that work with rubber that won't dislodge.

I picked them up from supercheap for about $23ea and they fit perfectly. Time will be the test, but straight up they are 10x better than OE and everything else I've tried.
