Hi,
I'm planning on having a patio sliding glass door installed. Of the three
manufacturers I checked, Andersen, Pella, and Marvin, Andersen was about
$1000 less than the others. Before I make the decision that makes
economic
sense, are there any compelling reasons I should steer clear of Andersen
and
spend the extra money?
Thanks.



All three are good brands. With that much of a difference though, I'd check
to see that it is a comparable model. It may be the "builder's special" and
lack some features or construction details.
