Okna 500 v. Vytex Fortis v. Revere Berkshire Elite

Hello there! You mesage boarders have been so helpful in my search for new windows I thought I would ask for your input on a few quotes I've recently received.
I need to replace 8 windows, including two sets of doubles and two windows with a tempered lower sash. All are about 31x59, white inside and out, double pane, Low-e and Argon, with no grids. Here are the best quotes I have so far:
$3700 for Vytex Fortis from a company with mixed reviews. A local consumer magazine has given this company high marks, but the internet reviews are more mixed.
$3,900 for Revere Berkshire Elites BarrierXP ThermD from a company with good reviews and a smattering of complaints.
$5,000 for Okna 500 Deluxes from a company with a stellar reputation. FWIW Thompson Creek has agreed to meet this estimate.
All these windows with the options I'm considering have basically equivalent U-Factors, and I'm happy enough with the look of all of them. There are some variations on warranties, but all are reasonably good.
Anyone have a recommendation for me? I've seen some concerns about The Berkshire Elites and the Vytexs, though I know Okna has also had some problems. Or is Thompson Creek offering me such a steal I would be mad not to take it?
Thanks for the help.
