Thanks, Guy. I really appreciate the response and the insight. I am currently seriously considering the Simonton 5500 and the Marvin Infinity. Do you have an opinion as to how they stack up against each other?
Thank you!

I have researched Simonton's in my area, and the local dealer (about 15 miles away) near my home in Alexandria, VA sells the Reflections and Pro Finish lines. From previous posts, I have learned that upgrading to a super spacer in the 5500 line makes for a pretty good window. I am also considering M...

Capitol Windows
I stopped yesterday to talk with a contractor installing windows on a house in my neighborhood (Alexandria, VA). I asked him what brands he likes. He recommended Capitol windows. I have been following this board for some time now (still trying to decide which windows to go with), but don't recall re...

Pella Thermastar v. Reliabilt 7000
I went to Lowes last night to look at the Pella Thermastar. The sales associate tried to sell me on the Reliabilt 7000. She claimed they were "much better" windows. Anyone have an opinion on either of these two windows. I have also looked at the Simonton windows Home Depot installs (as I h...

Quantum 2
I have been reading on-line about the Quantum 2 windows. Apparently they fill the frame/sash with foam. Is that a big deal? They claim it makes a huge difference - R-12 in some cases. Also, these windows have a layer of something between the panes they call a "heat mirror." Any thoughts on...

Thanks, Bill. Again, I really apprecaite your thoughts. I looked at the Simonton website. Unfortunately, the closest dealer that sells the Impressions line is about 100 miles away. I think I will run over to a dealer that sells the Reflections line and see what they can do for me. Any other suggesti...

I am a homeowner and am in the market for new windows. To this point, I haven't given much thought to the coming high prices for fuel to heat my house this winter - although, I welcome the savings from new windows. For me, the greatest consideration is comfort. We live in a house built in the late 1...

Thanks, Bill. This is helpful. I appreciate your taking the time to reply. Home Depot came to my house and gave me a bid. Their bid was within the price range I am hoping to spend. Are the Reflections 5500 good windows? Is there a better window out there for about the same price I should consider? A...

Simonton
I understand from reading some of the posts on this incredibly helpful site that Home Depot and Sears sell Simonton windows. Are they specially designed for Sears or Home Depot, or are they the same windows Simonton sells through its other dealers?
