So you mean to tell me you know all those specifics about Windows from RW because your "friends" work there? I'm calling bull shite. I bet you like their commercial music too, don't you?

Not only do my buddies work for RW, but I used to work for Renewal By Andersen. So, yes! In my opinion, their jingle is pretty atrocious, and that's honestly the only negative thing I have to say about RW!

What does this even mean? 7700 is a useless number without a manufacturer. And LEEP glass? Maybe a Low-e typo? If so, what type of low-e? There's a wide range of performance when it comes to low-e. And double insulation properties? Maybe you mean a dual seal insulating unit? Explain further why this is advantageous over a single seal unit. I know why, but your customers should know why before you shite on a competitor. Double strength glass is by definition 1/8" thick (3.2mm). Any thicker and it's no longer double strength. Be honest with your potential customers. Don't rattle off industry jargon to make something sound fancier than it really is.

Wincore 7700 Series Windows offered through Relief Windows - https://wincorewindows.com/products/replacement/7700/

LEEP (Low Energy Emissitive Pyrolytic) Glass - Has a hard pyrolytic coating on the inside surface of the inner pane of glass. Makes for a .27 or lower U-Factor. It combines Northern and Southern Glass. The glass is rolled out of the machine in a molten state onto a bed of mercury. The molten glass is sprayed with the EP coating at this point. As the glass cools the EP coating turns into a hard shell fixed to the glass. The newly finished glass reflects shorter wave radiation with the LE and blocks the longer wave radiation with the EP. All this together makes the window more like a wall.

Double Insulation Properties - Vinyl frames are chambered with individualized pockets of airtight space to increase insulating values. They're doubled in comparison to the 5400 series, which is more comparable to the Window World window. Even then, the 5400 series is a step above WW's standard window.

This is all as fancy as it sounds. Hope this helps clarify what I meant!

People only try and put you down to reduce you to their size. ;)

I know I'm a few years late, but the reviews online for each company speaks for itself. However, we're not even comparing apples to apples when you're comparing these two companies. Relief Windows (RW) offers a 7700 series replacement window that has LEEP glass, double insulation properties, and much thicker double strength glass, whereas Window World (WW) does not. WW only uses acrylic caulking, which will crack, chip, and peel off within a year or two exposing your windows to leaks, condensation and energy efficiency issues. RW only uses silicon based caulking, which is meant to last several years without the cracking, chipping, or peeling. Most of the time it will take a month or longer before you'll have your windows installed by WW. The turnaround time is half the time of that and sometimes even sooner. The installers for RW are professionally trained and even paid double to do the job correctly the first time. WW uses sub-contractors who may not be properly trained to install windows, much less be licensed to do so. Several people have complained that WW’s transferable “lifetime” warranty is not active until after having the windows installed for two years, which they will not disclose upfront unless you ask them. RW’s transferable lifetime warranty is guaranteed the day you have the windows installed. Also, RW uses a Measure Tech to come back out after you receive your quote from the Consultant to re-measure the windows for a more accurate measurement to the window opening. WW only does one measurement, and you better pray to God they did it right the first time because if there are any errors in the measurement(s), good luck on re-scheduling them to come back out and fix the issue in a timely manner because they often get back-logged because of how cheap they offer their windows (there’s a reason they’re so cheap).

So, if you want to sacrifice all of the above mentioned aspects of your window installation project along with customer service and satisfaction you deserve with a guaranteed installation by a professionally trained crew (non-sub-contracted), by all means go with the cheaper company. But, in this case, you definitely get what you pay for!

Not to mention, Relief Windows is a very proud supporter of LSU Athletics!:geauxtigers:
