Discussion Board Forum for Vinyl Windows

+1. If you were going to stick with vinyl, Simonton and Anlin are pretty well regarded out there.

Can Anlin deal with your egress problem on the 1 window? I agree that even though I do not deal with that company, as I understand it, they are a good choice for your products.

dont know much about Anlin but it seems like a decent product. good luck.

So we finally went with Anlin. Well, we still have to hear from the company regarding the final measurements, ... After all we've been through I won't feel like it's all set and done until the windows are actually here! For the 12 windows and 2 patio doors we got the anlin catalina ...

Your 45 inch or so window will NOT meet egress, to narrow. I have not heard anything bad of Anlin, and understand it to be a solid product. Ply-Gem 200 series will serve you well, IMO. Anlin will make you a window that will meet egress for the 45 inch, so you might check ...

... this place offers a bunch of options, milgard tuscany, pella, plygem, anlin, etc. i wrote the measurements and number of windows we need and walked into this showroom to see how much the windows would cost. so the ...

the one issue that stands out with Anlin is the fact that they are utilizing a Pocket Sill design. a pocket sill is an inferior design. basically lets water drain through the frame opposed to just the sill. the water goes through the frame ...

... My quote on Simonton 7300/7500 mix of products came in at ~60% of the Anlin/American Vision Windows install quote. The Simonton install would be done by a small couple person contractor ...

+1, I don't believe that any of those are available out there at this time. I have not used Anlin , nor have I heard anything bad. My recommendation would be to compare the performance ratings... The only windows that I personally feel confident in recommending out there are the Simonton and Milgard.

Not sure about Soft-Lite or Sunrise but HiMark and Okna are not out in CA yet.

Anlin appears to be well regarded.

... WoW. I take it from your response that you agree that most of the windows you and some others normally tout as the best simply aren't available ... please correct me if I'm wrong, that you don't have any experience with Anlin windows? Fom what I've heard, they haven't extended their reach to ...

... most of it, and what appears to be the most heavily recommended windows, all appear to be for the midwest and back east. Absolutely love ... slider. I've had American Vision Windows come over, who basically push Anlin hard and seem pretty expensive and, worse, the windows appear very ...

I'm new to this board and am debating what kind of replacement windows to put into our place. We live in Southern California and I've looked at Greenworld(Platinum series), Plygem and Anlin(Monteverde) windows. They are all comparable in price though Anlin is slightly ...

Take Schuco out of the mix. They are long since gone.

I would also look for Amerimax, Anlin, Milgard.

I don't know the West Coast offering too well but there are several threads on here with peoples experiences with West Coast offerings.
