He did not say. Will find out.

Anthony, Thanks I got the estimate from the Sunrise dealer who also sells Simonton, used to be his big brand for many years. Sunrise: 6250 Simonton Prism: 6100. So he is about 1100 to 1900 higher on Simonton Prism/5500. I have no basis to compare the Sunrise estimate b/c it is hard to find other dea...

WoW, Sienna model is 4600 replacement line http://www.siennawindows.com/sienna-4600-vinyl-windows.html Timeline is replacement series, http://www.timelinewindows.com/TechData.aspx I had not heard of either windows also. The guy said Timeline is geared for new home sales and Sienna is their replaceme...

Bill, Eco or WoW or anyone else, Any opinion on Timeline or Sienna Replacement both with loe366, the guy who installed the Timeline window over the garage for the former owner wants to sell me either of the two windows. Pricing slightly higher than for Simonton 5500 for Sienna (made by MGM southern ...

Bill, many thanks for the insight this is something that does not get explained by salesman which is my frustration with the process so to speak. If I install 5500, I will use the package as you have configured it, seems to make sense for sure. I am still going to get an estimate on the Sunrise b/c ...

Eco, I have estimates on Simonton 5500s, For Sunrise with ultra-12, 10 windows 32x62 plus one fixed 60x54, white on white with internal grids and full screens, wrap, caulk, haul-away, fixing rot as needed, what is a ballpark compared to say 5500 that would be a reasonable price point if you are comf...

WOW,

Many thanks, that is good to know about Sunrise and their glass packages. Still leaning toward Simonton because of wide availability, but I have an open-mind as well about a smaller window-maker.

Join the crowd. I have been researching for sometime. From what I understand for vinyl, simonton 5500/prism is a good middle of the road window that is readily available. Posters on this board have had good things to say about Sunrise as well as some other brands like Gorell and Softlite and Okna. W...

Yes, Only one sunrise dealer in area, waiting on a quote and his family is in the construction business. What I do not like about Sunrise has nothing to do with the look of the window, I just do not understand Sunrise window coatings it is not like Loe-366 or Solarban 70. Saw the windows installed v...

Should have added: 5500 with ETC glass package. And usually when I talk with the folks, I seem to have a better knowledge of the windows than salespersons or general contractors do on u-factor, solar gain, etc. So I am very frustrated with the process and the folks I have talked with because they ju...

I am looking for a topnotch window installer/company in vabeach for installing simonton 5500 windows. I have looked at wood, fiberglass, and most vinyl brands, have wood and some vinyl on house now installed by previous owner (MW, Timeline and BFrich). Fiberglass nice but expensive, do not want wood...
