Discussion Board Forum for Vinyl Windows

Anlin is the best of that group. Might take a look at Amerimax and Simonton as they are likely available to you.

can anyone tell me how to pick the brand of windows which would last and work best in the central valley climate? summers are 90-100, winters are 30-40. i have been pitched Anlin, Milgard, and Mercer. by 3 different installers. I have 22 windows to replace. ouch....

I'm in Northern Virginia so I'm not familiar with the choices available to you out west. Might try Amerimax, Anlin or Milgard.

You may be able to get Milgard, Amerimax, Anlin and Simonton. Those are pretty good brands. Sorry, I'm in the DC area so I'm really not familiar with the brands you have looked at so far.

I thought Amerimax was a low end window with pocket sill design, at least the low end model? I may have them confused with another brand though.

Anlin is probably the best of those 3. I'd check out Simonton and Amerimax too

Does anyone know which manufacturer is better, Milgard(Tuscany), Atrium, or Anlin? Any comments, suggestions or advice would be appreciated. We live in Northern Orange County, CA and are looking for better energy efficiency and good construction. Thank you.

The Monte Verde series is a subdivision of Anlin.

I just called HD and scheduled to have a estimate tomorrow morning for the Simonton series. What are their biggest selling points?

Since I am in the Southern CA do I really "need" AR gas?

Thanks!

I do not know about Brothers windows. You will need to tell me what series / models of Anlin or Simonton you are being offered for a more detailed answer. Simonton is well regarded nation wide. ...

Hello, I have three estimates for the installation of 23 vinyl windows: from Brothers, Simonton, and Anlin. Everyone claims that their windows are the best quality. The estimate for Brothers and ...

After getting the Simonton estimate, you might look for an Anlin dealer. They have a good reputation on the West coast.

Both Anlin and Amerimax sell the fin and set back you need. Contact Customer Exteriors for Anlin or XO Tech for Amerimax. Amerimax is growing and Anlin is shrinking as companies.

The Milgard and Simonton are both very solid products. I think a bunch of people also recommend the Anlin product out on the west coast as well.

... We are currently in the middle of a remodel/extension to our house. New windows will be added to the extension and the current ones will be replaced. ... Based on all the past posts it seems the decision should be between Anlin Catalina/Coronado, Simonton 7300/7500 or Milgard Tuscany. Which one ...

I've heard good reviews on Anlin and Amerimax.
