We are building a home in Northwest Arkansas and will be going with vinyl windows. I would,like some options that are not only energy efficient but offer some options in terms of details and colors that are not found with typical windows. I am willing to spend some money but of course dont want to completely blow the budget. Having done some research here and elsewhere on the Internet, I've concluded Soft-Lite and Sunrise are probably the best options that are available in this part of the country. The dealers for these windows are a bit of a trek from here tho. Can anyone name some other options I might look into? I've got Simonton on my list because they are available locally. Also Andersen because you can get them anywhere but I am pretty sure they will break the bank. If anyone can recommend some other brands I might look into I would appreciate it.
