Here we go again: another quote

If we are going to replace our windows, I think we finally found the company. No real sales pitch, just took our interests into account and presented us with mid-range windows, saying we could go lower or higher if desired. Here is the rough estimate (full to follow):

Master Legacy Series: ~$1900

Sugarcreek or Softlite Imperial: ~$2400-2500

What do you think of these brands? I have read a bit on Sugarcreek and Softlite, but I haven't been able to find anything on Master (though I do have a brochure). All are EnergyStar and have transferable lifetime warranties (we only plan to be here 2-3 more years, so this is something we have looked for).

I would recommend the SugarCreek. They make a very nice, well constructed window and they own their own glass plant. They use Super Spacer exclusively and Health Smart Glass is standard.

Thanks, Michael. You are always helpful.

I like the information I have found on SugarCreek. The rep brought the Softlite, and it is a nice window, too. I just have to weigh cost/possibilities at this point.

BTW, I did find the website for the Master window, if anyone is interested in checking it out:

The official quotes are in: Master $1995 Softlite $2475 Sugarcreek $2600

I'm a bit disappointed because I had read great things about Sugarcreek. The rep seems to prefer Softlite (he said they make a $100 profit for any window they sell, not a percentage).

This process is too frustrating! Maybe I'll just live with my old aluminum windows.

Michael,

Quite an "endorsement". (snerk)

skydawggy,

I'm not really sure what you mean by your post. Are you "snerk"ing at SugarCreek, the SuperSpacer, or my window guy's $100 profit on any window?

Anyway, the sales rep is pushing SoftLite quite a bit. The SoftLite and SugarCreek windows look quite similar, though I like more what I've read about SugarCreek.
