What happened to the sister site board

Erroring out when I go to the URL.

By the way, my install date is set for May 1 - 3 for my Schuco windows.

Will post some pics then!

I think the other windows salesman are running scared. They want to confuse the consumer into believing that all vinyl windows are the same and that Schuco is sooooo expensive (mine were about $600/window by the way) and overhyped.

Don't believe what you see on this board. See for yourself.

I have seen that stainable laminate. Its paper thin and I don't know of many companies that use it. I wouldn't trust it to last and I hear its a bear to stain (stain gets all over vinyl). We have various colors of wood in our house. The dining room is a southern pine kinda look and the foyer is much...

I know it will be worth the wait…. You are going to lose glass with retrofits no matter what, I guess. And to those who think that the Schuco is no better then the rest and are overhyped. It took me about 2 seconds to see and feel the vast difference in quality and attention to detail with the Sch...

Chris, Yeah, I have been anticipating my windows arriving and second guessing myself regarding how the windows will look aesthetically from the outside. The two windows that I am a bit worried about are tall and skinny (22 inches by 65 inches). The whole 'loss of glass' area thing wasn't even on my ...

Fenex, I had heard that the definition of 'virgin vinyl' was that it only had to be 70 percent pure vinyl. Didn't know that you could 'kinda' be a virgin :) Is the low gloss attribute of Schuco windows have to do with the purity of the vinyl or is it something else added to the formula? The low glos...

Does the Window Obsession go away

Once you get your new windows in?? I can't quit researching windows even though I already made my decision and am very happy with my choice (Schuco...of course!). Just find the whole industry fascinating from the different technology, hype, history etc. Am I a window geek and how do I get help? :lol:

I had heard that Schuco was only one of three companies that manufactured actual 'virgin vinyl' (since I guess it VV has to be only 70 percent pure). Not true, I guess?
