Simonton Reflections versus B.F. Rich Vintage

#1 Post by dads3boys »

I'm in the market for vinyl replacement double hung windows and I've narrowed down the decision to a contractor that is offering either the B.F. Rich Vintage or Simonton Reflections 5500 window. Both will have the same add-ons (e.g. low e, Argon, etc.). Both are being offered at the same price. The only difference is that the contractor is offering the B.F. window with foam filling.

Given this information, does anyone have an opinion on which is the better of the two windows? Your reasons? Are these "contractor" grade?

Lastly, if you think the Simonton is better, do you think it's worth the extra money to go into the Impressions series.

Thanks.
