We went with the Triple pane apex package (ultra-u plus8). We're in MN and suffer from both weather extremes. The windows are not yet installed, they were just ordered after before the Christmas. We are actually just doing two double casements first and will live with them for a few months before purchasing more. i want to make sure I truly like our windows before committing another $20-30k for the rest of our windows and doors. Yes, it cost more doing it this way, but I'm ok to pay a bit more to ensure I'm happy.

I agree that a decision should not be based on that alone, however it is what it is, and should not be completely discounted. There are only a handful (no more than a dozen on the list that I saw) of the hundreds if not thousands of companies nationwide that were singled out by the FTC. The actions must be pretty egregious to warrant such a response, and it raises an eyebrow at the very least. I believe that several of the other companies on that list are now out of business. Often times there may not be one big hairy issue that indicates the way a company does business, but an array of smaller things that can fly under the radar can often establish a pattern. Take it for what it's worth.

These samples are what we used for our bathroom, from top left: Grohe Cool Sunrise (robe hook sample), Kohler Modern Brushed Brass (sink overflow sample) Etsy by Dandiary Solid Brass Lip Pull, Linea round pocket door pull, and Amazon Fenas Suction Cup Hooks for Shower for wash clothes (not a perfect match (darker), but cheap). I hope this is helpful.

I'm glad you updated your experience with 'Sunrise Surprise', for I had almost purchased it, though now will keep my eyes peeled for 'Morden Golden Glow' ... have you possibly checked with Sunstar Nursery in northeast Edmonton?
