| I am getting quotes for vinyl replacement windows. I have looked at two window companies and have two more window people coming. I want a good Vinyl window. I have looked at a company called Midway and really like them. I also looked at Pella too, Midway seemed a little sturdier than the Pella. Does anyone know anything about Midway Windows & Doors? I would appreciate any input on good vinyl windows for a Midwest home. |

| Pella vinyl windows are junk. I'm not familiar with Midway. I'd get at least 2 more estimates before deciding. |

| I have narrowed my vinyl choice down to the following: Alside Sheffield, Midway (Alliance), Simonton and Soft-Lite Imperial LS. Any feedback on quality of these windows would be appreciated. |

| I'd toss out the Sheffield. Softlite and Simonton are probably the 2 best of that grouping depending on what model Simonton you are looking at. |

| +1 Soft-Lite and Simonton are two of the best. Gorell, Sunrise, and Okna are the last 3 on my short list. |

| SKYDAWGGY--Which Simonton should I put in? I want a good solid window. I appreciate your help, I never thought there were so many window companies!!!!!!! |

| My first choice would be the Prism Platinum, followed by the Reflections 5500. Basically the same window but the Platinum comes with double strength glass and a 25 year glass breakage as standard. The Reflections comes standard with single strength glass. If you upgrade it to double strength, the glass warranty is only 3 years. If you're on a very tight budget, you should look at the Prism Bronze or the Reflections 5500. Just make sure you get the right glass for your area. I also recently started carrying the PGT Spectraguard. I like them very much too. If they are available to you, I'd check them out. |

| Sorry I miss typed. If you are on a tight budget look at the Reflections 5050. |

| I love my Simonton 5500 Reflections, mainly because my DW likes them and they were far from being budget breakers. |
