Sliding Glass Door Brand Recommendations

Thank you for your help here a week or so ago, when I was trying to decide between a sliding glass door & a French door for my kitchen to garden entry. Due to my tight space, I've decided that a sliding door makes the most sense for me.

I've attached a floorplan for my new kitchen, as well as a Houzz "inspiration" photo - the basic galley layout & door/transom is comparable to my plan. I am hoping to have a transom over the slider, if I can justify the expense...

I live in a city rowhome, so this will be my only external door other than my front door. I spend a lot of time in & out of the garden, so this door will be heavily used. I don't have AC, so the door will be open (with screen) anytime the weather is warm - or even hot.

While my budge is limited, I believe that getting a well insulated, sturdy & easy to open & close door is a priority - one that I'm willing to pay for. I've been thinking Andersen - what other brands should I be considering?
