Is Window World actually selling the Excalibur Window?

[kimberlyorchid]

Hello! I'm up to my eyeballs in window quotes and (mis)information! I hope someone here can clear something up for me...

The window that Window World is offering us looks and sounds a lot like the Alside Excalibur window being offered by another company (don't worry, after reading other posts, we're NOT planning to get the Excalibur:). I know Window World's windows are manufactured by AMI, which also makes the Alside windows. So is Window World offering us the same basic window, or is theirs somehow better? I believe it is the 6000 series window they've quoted us.

Thank you!

Same window.

+1 .. They sell the full Alside line. Excalibur might be the 4000? ... I'm not sure on that, but it is a fact that all of their windows have a corresponding Alside line which is identical. Kudos to you for noticing!

Thank you! That simplifies things. We are looking at going with the Polaris Thermaweld. Though, after reading good things about the Softlite, we may decide to get a quote about that one as well.

Polaris is nice, although the Softlite is better imo. Also check out Gorell.

If you have an Okna dealer in your area the Okna 400 would be in the same range as the Thermalweld but with better air infiltration numbers, better spacer, and better U-Value.
