Anlin Vinyl Windows vs. Amerimax Vinyl Windows
Anlin Vinyl Windows:
1 factory in California
Family owned
welded corners
double strenght glass
superspacer
cardinal low-e366 glass
ventilation latches
cam lock
nylon rollers with stainless steel axels
double weatherstripping
2 weep hole system


VS.

Amerimax Vinyl Windows:
2 factories (California and Colorado)
Parent company is Euromax which does almost billion dollars a year
welded corners
double strenght glass
superspacer
cardinal low-e366 glass
ventilation latches
cam lock
brass rollers with stainless steel axels
triple weatherstripping
sloped chambers for water drainage
4 weep hole system

Both Anlin and Amerimax are considered premium vinyl windows. The problem is Anlin is sold at a much higher price. Amerimax is still more expensive then most vinyl windows but well worth the price. Amerimax vinyl windows don't advertise at all and are sold as private label windows in different parts of the county. I sell both windows but my customers like the Amerimax vinyl windows because of the features and especially the price.

I think Simonton and Milgard Tuscany are overrated and use their marketing to make people believe their windows are premium windows but they are not.
