| We met with a salesman yesterday who quoted us a price for 13 double hung windows, 2 picture windows and a sliding glass door. Price was about $17,000. He was heavily pushing the Starmark windows by OKNA, and they did look impressive and extremely well made. However, my husband and I have never heard of them, and a Google search turned up not much other than several PA companies that carry them. Does anyone have these windows that can vouch for them?
Our other quote was for about $18,000 for Anderson Woodrite replacement windows. Any comments on these windows? Thanks! Beth |

| Okna Starmark is a high end window that has great performance numbers. i know it beats out Anderson in performance. |

| Snaupal The prices you got for the Okna are way to high assuming an uncomplicated installation. Get a few more estimates on either the Okna or a few other highly rated vinyl windows. Also you don't need some so-called window expert who will surely steer you towards the Andersen Woodwright. Additionally the claim that the Okna Starmark is the most energy efficient widow available is a true claim. Something I would expect a window expert to know. |

| Okna starmark is a very solid well designed window. Its also one of the most energy efficient available. Its expensive but worth the investment. Its definitely a much better performer than andersen or pella. |
