Costs for Marvin Infinity vs Integrity Windows
Comments (2)Windowsonwashington, I was wondering the same thing. I noted another thread where Tedi055 recommended Andersen and Pella sliding glass doors more than Marvin. Everyone's entitled to their opinion, but Tedi gave no reason for his recs, other than to say "for some reason, I like Anderson better", and then providing that link. But since he misspelled Andersen, I don't know how he could be an Andersen dealer. Any comments Tedi?...See MoreMarvin ultimate vs Kolbe & Kolbe vs Peachtree
Comments (15)The window order came in on monday less than four weeks from ordering altho 8 windows are on back order not sure which ones. I am assured by next Wed. latest. We are having the dealer store them for a couple weeks until roofing is finished we have been having major rain delays. From what I could see of the windows in the warehouse they are beautiful. I am regreting the unfinished interior as I will have to prime and paint. I will post pictures if I can figure out how to do it. This is after I track down the dupont flex flash and make sure the installers know how to use it. We have used Zip-Panels for exterior sheathing and are wondering if we should have used tyvek instead. All of this is so installation intensive and since I am at the mercy of the installers... Thank you to all who have posted to help my decision....See MoreMarvin Integrity all Ultrex vs Marvin Infinity
Comments (3)In my opinion, the Marvin Integrity that is all ultrex in and out is just plain ugly and cheap looking. The Infinity is a much nicer looking window. I also remember a Marvin rep telling me a few years back that Infinity utilized a thicker guage fiberglass and it was built better. The jamb on the integrity is very narrow and not 3 1/4 like most replacement windows. I do not like the Integrity ultrex at all....See MoreOpinions on Marvin Integrity (wood-ultrex) and Marvin Infinity
Comments (4)You are looking at three product materials with different pros and cons. I can say that each product that you've seen is highly regarded, but for very different reasons. You will want to assess your priorities for the project to determine which is the best fit. All are well made quality products. -Performance? -Appearance? -Cost? -Value (very different than cost)? -Warranty? -Longevity? -Option content? -Perception by others (including guests and/or future buyers of your home) If I could make a chart, the Okna would skew toward performance, value, cost, and warranty, the Ultimate toward appearance, perception, option content, and the Integrity/Infinity as somewhat of a bridge between the two. Not as good in the "good" areas of each choice, but not as bad in their weaker areas either. Whether that makes it a "glass half-empty" or "half-full" proposition depends on your perspective....See Morewindowshooper
