Anderson 200 vs. Milgard or Jeld Wen Vinyl
Comments (4)you are comparing a vinyl window compared to a wood window with a vinyl cladding. their is a very big difference, hence the pricing difference. If budget is not a concern go with the Andersen. Also never heard of Milgard vinyl windows so i can't really tell you much about them, but good luck if you have a warranty issue with Jeld-wen, it will be a nightmare for you....See MoreMarvin vs Jeld-wen, wood vs. clad, painting aluminum
Comments (5)Re: Painting aluminum, most reps I talked to say it voids the warranty, b/c you have to sand the aluminum to get the paint on, apparently and that interferes with the finish, so it voids the warranty on their finish, whatever that means. I have widened the possibilities to Eagle, Loewen, Pella's Architect and Marvin. Pella was too expensive for what I wanted. The rest were competitive in price, even though it had to be custom size for Eagle and standard for Marvin and Loewen. Pella had to be custom, so I am assuming that's why it was so expensive. Marvin also has a shorter lead time of 4-6 weeks vs Eagle and Loewen had to be 8-9 weeks. So, I am inclined to go with Marvin, but I haven't seen any of these windows in person yet, so I am worried about looking at just one and deciding. On the other hand, time is way past for ordering these windows. Never knew how stressful window picking would be! Pinar...See MoreAndersen 100 (Fibrex) vs Milgard vs Jeld-wen

Comments (15)I was looking at the A 500 Premium aluminum and it is limited to the SW states. Maybe the Atlantic aluminum has thermal breaks, but I'm buying for the South West. I have asked about the thermal break but I've yet to talk to a rep that knows all about these and I can not get a corner sample. I was told they have it but it is not listed in the brochure and apparently not on the drawing so likely they don't. I got one quote on Jeld-wen aluminum and they did not list the model and haven't answered me on that. I'm looking for other options still. I'm calling Fleetwood tomorrow, they look good on their website. All the aluminum clad wood have pesticides and fungicides on them, I don't want pesticides 2 inches from my head, thus looking for all aluminum....See Moreaimsters
