Marvin Integrity all ultrex vs Anderson 100
Comments (177)My daughter has purchased a new home with 50 year old double hung windows that need to be replaced. It is a colonial home in Massachusetts several miles from the coast. She is trying to decide between the Anderson 400 series and the Marvin Integrity. She wants to stay with the same traditional 6 over 6 white double hung windows. Any thoughts on which is better - the Marvin Integrity, or the Anderson 400 Series?...See MoreAndersen 400 Glider vs. Pella Impervia Slider
Comments (9)My husband had a Pella door installed about 10 years ago. We have all kinds of weather here in STL, MO and the door is in mint condition. I can't comment on the series you're looking at my but I love our Pella door. I'm getting ready to get a bid on windows and will be looking at Pella and Anderson....See MoreMarvin Integrity vs Sun Aluminum Clad vs Jeld Wen Premium Vinyl
Comments (14)We're in upstate SC as well. We looked at Windsor too - in our opinion Sun was a much better window overall. I don't have any photos - the top sash just slides down on some of the windows when unlocked. Here's a video from their website showing "sash droop" as he calls it, and how to adjust it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1t0zmrdlsk And speaking of videos, one of the reasons we chose Sun (not a major reason, but I still appreciate stuff like this) were the videos they posted on their website showing stuff like that above. Here's more. We just moved in the house in July, and it's so hot here - as you know - that the last thing we want to do is open a window. So we really haven't made a big deal out of it with our dealer yet. We had them come out once to adjust a few windows that had the top sash sag, but we've noticed more doing it since then, and not all of the ones I've adjusted myself will stay up like they should even after adjustment. I'll be getting in contact with our dealer in the next week or so to get those top sashes fixed as we'll be heading into open-window season soon. I have confidence they'll fix it - Sun was very good about fixing the minor issues we had right after installation. It was primarily minor finish/paint issues (we had them paint the interior at the factory) and out of 35 windows they replaced about 6 sashes. Two of them were because the dealer didn't spec tempered glass in the stairwell - they replaced those sashes with the right kind of glass for free. Good service....See MoreWindow options: windsor vs marvin integrity and 2604 vs 2605 coat
Comments (4)I was just talking to someone in Austin as a matter of fact. They were comparing the Marvin Integrity and the Andersen E-Series in this case. I think it is as much a function of what "look" you are going for. Seems to be that the "modern" look is catching on these days to be honest. In that case, the sleeker profiled unit is probably the better look. Does you builder/GC have a window that he/she runs with? In Texas, even in the hill country, you can get away with Thermally Broken aluminum as well where you can't in most of the other parts of the country....See Moremmarse1
