Its a rebadged Plygem Premium series/Great Lakes Grandview 5000 but you get the privilege of paying more for it since it has a different name and nicer brochure. Average thermal ratings, below average air infiltration rating. You could certainly do worse, I just would not pay the price of a premium window.

Great Lakes lifestyles is an average window at best, and certainly no where near the quality and performance of the okna 800, soft lite elements, or the kensington quantum 2 ( just to name a few).

+1. Those products metioned by masterext are leaps and bounds better.
