Harvey vs Alside Windows
Comments (1)you may want to look at some other brands. Harvey Slimline is a budget window and the Harvey Classic is average at best. Alside is cheap for a reason; cheaply made and poorly designed. why spend "less money" on alside and then spend alot more in a few years to replace your poor designed Alside excalibur windows. just my opinion. some brands that are known to be high quality are Okna, Gorell, Polaris, Sunrise, and soft lite....See MoreStarmark/OKNA Replacement Windows vs. Anderson?
Comments (21)Hi toddinmn, Thank-you so much for your quick replies. Are they the 400 or 400 woodrights? 400 Are they staining, painting, or ordered prefinished For the 400’s? Prefinished is an extra $125/window. They would be replacing the interior casing with new, primed casing. are they replacing the interior trim? Will that be stained/painted? Yes but just primed what are they doing with the exterior trim? Nothing are they removing any siding? I will be replacing the siding but that is a separate project I hope to do as the same time as the window replacements. Do you’re Windows have lead based paint?

Comments (2)Im assuming you are in the nyc area? Tri state window factory make an ok window i guess but its definitely not up there with the elite windows such as okna, soft lite, or sunrise. Okna Windows are definitely a better window and is on a differenet level than Tri State Windows which is only a mid range type window. Being that the pricing is close, i would hands down choose the okna. The pricing seems good as well. Okna make a very well designed window with some great engineering. A very good looking window. I also agree with Todd, if you want triple pane, argon is a much more economical choice opposed to krypton....See Morecolts2018
