“Gliding windows prices are relatively low, although usually more expensive than non-movable windows. You want to make sure you buy a quality product so that the gliding mechanism and movement of the window you buy is smooth for many years; temperature changes can cause cheap vinyl frames to warp, which can affect how well they glide.”
