That is a decent price for my area.

Hmmm, according to the website, Anderson has a 20-year warranty on
glass. So maybe I'll end up paying nothing. We'll see.


That would be "Andersen" w/ an "e" not "o" to be pedantic...

I've not read the warranty but I suspect it won't cover breakage that
was, presumably, from an outside source, not an inherent
failure/defect in the window.

Mostly what they're guaranteeing is the sealed unit and the actual
structural integrity. Like the "road hazard" exclusion on tire
treadwear or blowout warranty.


My unit was bought at HD and made by Silver Line Building Products.
There are no conditions to the guarantee, they are covered no matter
what happened to the glass.
