Let me know how it works out. It is hard keeping track of what plants they buy up and who controls production and specs. You might want to look ito what the big boxes are selling and sell something different.

Re: Jeld-wen


It is a long story but I'll make it short. I am a marvin dealer. Marvin dropped my distributor and claimed they were going to sell direct?? Well direct to one of the marvin distributors then to me. So basically marvin is playing there own middle man?? Plus there pricing sucks.

So I look into windows I can get direct and stand a chance at making a few dollars for myself.

I hunted around and came up with the jeld-wen custom line.

Not sure where your located at, but here in the midwest Menards (like HD or Lowes) carries Jeld-wen. I'm not sure what lines they carry. Just food for thought.

Re: Jeld-wen


We have used Pozzi windows in the past starting about 1989. And they are a very good window. We haven't used them lately because of the expense and we are not building homes in that price range (million and up) at the time right now.

The good thing about getting that line for you is that Jeld-Wen has been advertising heavily on all the home improvement channels.
