DMac knows replacement windows!

Jeld-Wen is one of the largest window manufacturers in the U.S. They're primarily a new-construction company, selling hundreds and thousands of windows at a time. They offer aluminum, wood, and vinyl options. Because they are mainly a new-construction company, they don't have the best reputation for remodeling projects. If you order 15-20 windows, and something goes wrong, it can be tough to have their customer service resolve the issue. Since you're not ordering hundreds or thousands at a time, you're a very small customer to them.

Sierra Pacific is a family-owned and operated window and door company in Red Bluff, California. They are mainly known for their wood clad windows and doors and also offer vinyl and aluminum clad products. Sierra Pacific is mostly known for its distribution in the Northwest and now sells throughout the United States through local dealers and reps. While their wood-clad windows are of good quality, they're too new to the vinyl window market to make a solid judgment about these windows.

Simonton windows are known for providing windows of decent quality that are nationally distributed, with a reasonable warranty.

When it comes to their reviews, they have 2.5 stars on Yelp with 24 reviews.

On Yelp, they currently have 3-stars and 31 reviews, and many of their problems seem to come from installation companies and their customer service.
