Avoid Lincoln Windows if possible. We built a home back in ’93 and used all Lincoln double hungs with low-e, argon fills and double pane. It was originally recommended to us by the builder and we have had problems from the get go. We’ve replaced nearly half of the sashes because of multiple problems; rotten sashes, faulty interior panes and heavy moisture inside the glass. They covered the cost of replacement for the initial problems but then I had to cover additional costs and then only by threatening to sue.
I’m actually at the point of deciding whether to bite the bullet and replace all of my windows again. I’m now looking at Marvins or Pella but will be taking my time, making the right decision so that I can avoid this huge cost and headache. I know what I won’t be going with!

I’m a window contractor and have installed Lincoln windows for over 10 years — mainly the thermopane with wood interiors and metal clad exteriors. I have probably installed over a 1000 of them and honestly have had only minor issues on several windows. As well, I’ve installed many patio doors and entry doors and have only ever had one issue problem, which the company replaced. I’ve been reading these forums and am astounded by all the problems that people are having!

Our whole neighborhood has Lincoln thermopane windows and we are all having to replace them — I’ve replaced 9 so far and it looks like I may have to replace another in the next month of so. The warranty has expired, which means we have to pick up the entire cost (it was still hundreds for each window with the warranty). The neighbor next to me has replaced every single window over the past three years. They seals break, the fills leak and the windows themselves get all fogged up.
Because the company has only one distributor in our area, we are forced to use them. We tried to look at other brands but they are custom made so that seems to be out. All of us are unhappy with their product and service and don’t recommend using them if you find something else.

We used Lincoln windows in part of our home – for a large fixed picture window and for our french doors. On the rest of our home we used Marvin double hungs and casements, which were more expensive but look so good.
We tend to get lots of condensation on the interior of our windows and doors and I must say that the Lincoln windows get MUCH MORE wet – I’m assuming that means that their insulation is worse but I’m not sure…We are building a Casita now and plan to use Marvin for the top floor and Lincoln fixed frames in the basement.
We had a casement window crack and Marvin immediately replaced it. Also, the rep didn’t file the rebate in time with Marvin but they still honored it, which I thought was a classy move. They seem like a good company.
