Top Rated Replacement Windows: Okna 800
The Okna 800 model is the company’s premium vinyl window that achieves excellent performance numbers. This is quite possibly the best vinyl window that U.S. consumers can buy. Further, I’d give this window a 10 out of 10 in terms of its overall quality and craftsmanship.

Soft-Lite Elements
The Soft-Lite’s Elements is the company’s premium vinyl window and one of the best vinyl windows money can buy. The Elements delivers an 0.01 air infiltration ratings, which cannot be bested. In fact, I would put this in my top 3 list, which is pretty much as good as you can get.

Top Rated Replacement Windows: Marvin Infinity
The Marvin Infinity windows have two options available, you can choose the complete Ultrex frame or you can go with the Everwood interior which is a wood veneer with an Ultrex exterior. Both offer easy maintenance and are replacement windows.
While more expensive that the Integrity windows offered by Marvin, these windows offer a thicker frame and more options including a lifetime warranty with a twenty year glass warranty. Looking at the performance numbers, they are good with a 0.30 U-Factor. The Marvin Infinity range is one of the best fiberglass window choices.

Andersen 400 Wood Clad Window
These are wood clad windows which have been upgraded from their 200 series. They are better designed with more choices available including color and sizing options. Specifically, this series is also available in two models, the Tilt-Wash and the Woodright. While the Tilt-Wash uses a better design when it comes to the sill than their 200 series, it does use the PPG Flexicron sash finish.
The Andersen Woodright is the same as the Tilt-Wash when it comes to the frame and sill except they use a fibrex on the sash instead. However, consumers and industry insiders preferred the tilt wash over the PPG option. Lastly, the Woodright is one of the company’s best options, although it is limited in color selections.

Top Rated Replacement Windows: Marvin Ultimate
The Marvin Ultimate is a higher end custom wooden window which is one of the best wooden options available on the market. Additionally, they are nice looking windows offering homeowners the ability to choose their preferred wood from Pine, Mahogany, White Oak, Cherry and Douglas fir. With the ability to upgrade and customize the windows, the price can increase dramatically, in some cases you can expect to pay in excess of $1,000 for each window.

Loewen Wood Clad
Loewen manufactures some of the best wood frame windows in the industry. However, their products are not inexpensive. Their custom wood series is one of my top rated replacement windows on the market. Expect to spend on average $1000 per opening for a double hung window with standard installation. Notwithstanding, Loewen will not be available in states outside of the north east.
