    We met with Renewal by Andersen for patio doors. We did not go with them, but we got Andersen Windows in the front of the house. The outside colors matched better with Andersen and so far, so good. I was also very happy with the contractor. They got the job with the windows done in one day.

    Andersen Windows is excellent, and I would highly recommend them. They're a little expensive, but it's worth the money. I got windows and a slider, and the quality is excellent. For the install, the person was certified by Andersen to put the windows in, and it went very smoothly. We have one window that came as a wrong size. So, I'm waiting for that last window, and once that's in, I'll be set for winter.

    My wife liked Andersen. We got a patio door, and we love it. The contractor was great too. They were friendly, on time and very professional. I enjoyed it. We've had a problem wherein the roller on the bottom wasn't correct. It off-centered itself and made it hard to open and close. They've ordered one whole new panel in the sliding section, and right now, we're waiting for it.

    My window replacement took a little bit longer than anticipated and the distributor that Andersen's rep was getting it from received the wrong window. So it was another month before we finished the project. We originally had a 45-day timeline and it ended up taking 90 days. So it wasn't great in terms of timing. Also, the windows are not cheap, so pricing was a little higher than I would have liked to pay. But the windows are great quality and the customer service was good.

    Andersen Windows + Doors@Andersencorp.com. My wife and I purchased Andersen E Series windows and last month had them installed throughout our house. Our E Series windows are double hung, aluminum exterior, stained wood interior. I wish I could say the windows’ quality is what we had hoped for. Issues with the windows include: split and checked wood, outside daylight showing through sash joints, raised and porous wood grain to the point it is very rough to the touch and difficult to clean, inadequate filling of nail and staple joints, and a stain color that is nowhere close to the sample provided. The only thing more disappointing than the quality of the windows is Andersen Corporation’s Senior Field Service Manager’s response when he came on Aug. 6, 2024, and inspected the windows.

    The Service Manager acknowledged the rough finish on the windows and the raised grain. The service manager’s suggested fix was replacing the sashes only, with unfinished sashes to be stained the correct color, but leaving the rough finished wrong color frames which won’t match the new sashes. The Service Manager apologized that the solution he is offering is incomplete. The last communication I received from the Service Manager was on Aug. 7, 2024. We went to showrooms and talked to previous customers before ordering these windows. I understand sometimes things go wrong. At those times it is very important to know how these problems are addressed and rectified.

    Please forward to your friends. If you, a family member, or a friend is in the process of looking at Andersen windows, message me and I will set up a time for you to take a look at the windows they have sold us. They are not the showroom pretty samples they parade out to their customers. Our windows are what Andersen’s quality control allows to be sent out to its customers. Come to our house, inspect for yourself before committing. Our window package installed was $48,000+. I expected more from Andersen than an incomplete solution. I am not going to load up every single picture, but here are a few pictures of Andersen windows and doors quality, and rough, porous factory finish on their E series windows. This is what $48,000+ will get you. #windows

    PS I received Anderson‘s response dated August 16, 2024 on August 28, 2024 after I had inquired on August 28, 2024, if they had come up with a solution? After reading their response I asked about their products finishes, checking, splitting, and gaps their response was: “Andersen doesn’t feel that it’s a manufacturing issue.” You’re looking at their factory finish. Windows plus install $48,000+. Please share.

    Updated on 09/08/2024: ConsumerAffairs does a great job in offering the public the opportunity to hear from consumers about different companies, and opening up communications between both. In my case the company asked for this opportunity to speak with this consumer, and when I offered this opportunity I was met with silence. With Andersen it shows this company is operated with consistent bad faith towards those who spent money on its products.

    Original: I have owned Andersen products for many years now. Recently I had a warranty issue on French Andersen doors that are only a few years old and have fallen apart, delaminated. It’s clearly a poor manufacturing issue since all my doors are doing the same and some are subject to NO outside weather elements. I contacted the company and they failed to even offer a responsible response. This company advertises fraudulently and to specific demographics, older individuals, they are targeting too easy targets, and deliver the complete opposite of what their ads say, they deliver poor faulty products, then offer no warranty customer service. Stay away from this company.

    The distributor that I dealt with, Windows By Jeff, did a great job of describing for me everything I needed. They recommended Andersen Windows, and I trust them. The price was relatively competitive. I still had two quotes that were less, but I went with them because of the relationship I have with the owner of the company. The installer came in and did his job well. He was efficient, and so far, the product is good. I got it less than two weeks ago, so it needs to stand the test of time before I'm 100% satisfied.

    I had a major redo on the outside of my house. I had a Hardie board siding and a new roof put on, and I had all the windows replaced as well. Andersen and Pella are some of the biggest names in the industry, and I had experience with some Andersen Windows earlier and really liked them, so the choice was a no-brainer. I got at least 16 Andersen windows and they're a combination of ones that slide up and down and some that have a center pane that's fixed and then there are two windows on either side that crank open.

    I am extremely happy with both the products and the people that did the work. It was all done by K&B Home Remodeling. They originally quoted me four weeks to do the job. They showed up with an army of people, and the entire job, including the new roof and new siding windows, was all done in two weeks. I was absolutely amazed. Most people I know have never used the same contractor twice. They hire a contractor that does the work, and they're very unhappy. They end up using somebody else the next time. The people that I used were nothing short of spectacular, and if I ever have any more work done, it will certainly be them.

    Andersen's price is a little higher than some others that seemed to have similar quality advertisements, but I've purchased parts from Andersen and that was a great experience. However, the certified contractor process was terrible. We started the process in September a year ago but the door was just installed about a month ago. We went through three contractors to get somebody to show up and provide that. It was a disaster of a process and there's a zero chance I would use that again.

    After paying a large amount for new French Door, we find that the CHEAP screen slider on the outside of the door is really junk. After using it for only 3 months, the screen doesn't slide smoothly. I took the screen off and checked the rollers on the bottom. Small grains of sand removed and it slides better but makes a loud sound. The rollers looked oxidized. I guess I need to apply WD40 every other week to try to get the sound down. Once in a while the safety latch on the door doesn't engage unless I slam the door handle up. My wife can't do it.

    My wife and I moved into our brand new home with Andersen Windows in January 2023. We had the 400 series (upgraded) "Zebra" (Inside is white, exterior is black) windows which again cost extra. As soon as it got hot out (above 75 degrees), the trim around the windows would start to pop out. Since we just moved in, and had enough other things to get settled, I simply popped them back in and went on with our day. After a month or so, they popped out again. Simple enough, I popped them back in. Here I am a year and a half later, and I am constantly having to pop these back in. The best is I called Andersen about this, and they informed me this is a known issue with the black exterior windows, and I can "gorilla glue" the trim or PAY THEM TO COME OUT AND DO IT. After spending a significant amount of $$ on these windows, this is extremely poor quality and poor service/warranty. You have been warned.

    We have Andersen windows in two house houses. The windows up in our other house are about 30 years old and the ones that we have here are 15 years old. And they're pretty much the same. We wanted to match the windows that are there, so we recently got the Andersen 400 series. They replaced five windows and it took about five days. The sashes were damaged on two of the windows and we had to patch them. We really couldn't do anything with it because they'd have to take the whole windows out to fix the damage. But that was the only problem we had. Our Andersen windows are good quality. The windows that we had in this house were old aluminum windows and they were high-quality, but they were very noisy. When we put the Andersen windows in, you could tell the real difference. The rooms are more quieter.

It’s too late to contact anybody now. We've already installed 30 windows. The windows themselves are good but the functionality is not the best. There’s more space on the outside because you have a constant thickness and it collects dirt because more of it is exposed to the exterior than interior. It's terrible.

    In March 2024 I entered into a $26,000 contract with Home Depot for window replacement and paid a deposit of $6,200 after being shown photos of Andersen Windows series 400 from the Home Depot website. On 6/19/24 two Home Depot employees attempted to install the windows. After removing a window they discovered the new windows were defective, having a slight tilt which led to a gap on one side of the window and an inability to open the other. They installed one new window temporarily and said they would reorder.

    Upon seeing the new window, I was disappointed with the amount of trim installed, which reduces the glass surface area. This was not discussed with me at the time of contract signing. I connected with Paul ** on 6/24/24 to express my objections to the window via phone but he was not able to address my concerns with the trim. I sent a follow-up email the same day, asking Paul to cancel the reorder and stated I would not be able to accept the windows. The same day I received a reply from Paul stating, "Good luck with however this turns out."

    On 6/25/24 I received an email from Brandon **, Sales Manager, stating that I would not be able to change the windows from those on my contract, and I was told I was getting what Paul had shown me and "what I signed up for." I sent these messages to Home Depot Corporate and continued to speak with my local store via phone to try to resolve the issue. We discussed someone coming to look at the window in-person.

    I followed up on 7/3/24 to get this scheduled and did not hear back. I've not been presented any choices for reducing trim, however they did offer to sell me the original defective windows for $11,000 so I could recoup my money by reselling them. I am not getting the windows as shown to me at the time of contract signing, and Home Depot failed to perform quality control checks. They have been unable to offer an acceptable resolution and I ask that my contract be terminated and I be refunded $6,200 deposit. Home Depot's beef is with Andersen, not me. However, I am being penalized and have nothing to show for my 6K. I will not be using these windows. I expected high quality andersen Windows. I cannot believe Andersen put their name on these windows.

    We bought a house in another town. It had the double-hung Andersen Windows and a door and we really liked it. So, when we started looking for an upgrade on a sliding door, Andersen was one of our choices. I had an Andersen person come out, but I did not go with Renewal by Andersen. I went with another company that does install Andersen. It took a long time for the company that we used to get it in. We ordered in September, and it wasn't installed until December. When it came, it did pass quality control with Andersen, which it should not have. The transom window had finishing nails that went in and cracked the glass in the transom window. So, they ordered another transom window, and that took from December to March to get in. We were patient. It's not their fault but it's a long time. It was more of the distributor in the area they use.

    As far as the product, I got the 400 series. So, it came in boxes, which was a surprise to the crew doing it. I see a lot of reviews that people don't like it if they buy from Home Depot. I would highly advise that if Andersen is going to sell to other businesses to install their product, they should be required to take a course on how to put the door together. I felt something was off with it. The company did honor it and came back. I ended up calling Andersen. They were great. I got the inspection person out here and he noted that they put in the weather stripping thing backward and they put in only one piece.

    Overall, the quality is a total upgrade. It's quiet in the house now. Even with the weather stripping thing put in wrong, it was still more weather-efficient than the old door. The door now is quieter. It keeps the heat and the cool out. We love the transom window over the standard-size door. Trying to light it up with the windows in the house, we love the extra light that comes in. We like that you can get parts for it if you need to. I don't know how to install half of them, but you can fix it. It's not like you gotta replace the whole door. We got the blinds and the glass, too. I'd recommend Andersen to friends. The quality itself is good.

I called, they would not replace the door but said they would send me parts. And it was my responsibility to do the work to replace. I got the parts minus one of the parts that was supposed to be in the box. I called. They resent the parts still minus the same part that was missing the first go around. I called and They said go to town and by the part.

    The replacing of this retractable screen is a 15 step procedure that requires a drill and drill bit, a special tape I have never heard of, safety glasses, and gloves. Mind you this door was brand spanking new and didn't last 10 minutes after installation and now it is my responsibility to fix it. I am 74 and not handy.

    When I contacted Andersen, they passed me on to their subcontractor, Capital. I purchased a custom full panel patio door, and they ordered that. It was a major job. Part of that was they had to get the permit update, put in a new header, put in a structure for the inspections, and then do an installation. I wish Andersen would have given me a list of subcontractors that I could pick from, but that wasn't the case.

    The installers came in with a defective product, and I pointed that out when they installed it, but they said there was nothing they could do. They can install it. I just have to get it replaced through the warranty. That turned out to be several months before I got the right parts done, and that put a huge delay on my part. Because Andersen had me go through the subcontractor that they approved, I didn't have any communication with them.

    The lumber company that was subcontracted through Andersen came out and did the repair. They told me at that point that we should have stained the wood. It did not say in the brochure that the product needed to be stained. When we were sold the product and when it was installed, they did not mention that as well. So now I'm stuck with a product that I did not get stained. It wasn't offered to me. I asked Capital what they could do, and they said I have to pay to get it stained. Overall, the installation was horrible, and I spent 13,000 for a product that I'm terribly not happy with. I don't think I'm gonna go through Andersen ever again.

    Thank you for reaching out regarding your experience Wanda. We're sorry we were not able to meet your expectations. Wood does need to be finished by either staining or painting for longevity of the product and for warranty purposes. You will need to work with a local contractor for assistance with this.

    The windows themselves seem to be high quality. But the thing about the windows is that when you lift a window, there's usually a ledge that you can put your fingers under to lift the window, and that doesn't come automatically with Andersen. You have to pay for that separately. They charge over $100 for each one because they don't have one solid one. So either that, or you just use your fingers on the upper part of the window to push it up.

    There was a gap between the window and the masonry wall. So the installer had to come back and fix that. It was fine. I just found out that the screens themselves on three of the windows aren't actually flushed with the windows. So I'm gonna have to give them a call back to come back out. Overall, the windows are good. It's just the screens that I'm pissed off at.

    Two of the windows are wood, unstained, pine windows. I'm still in discussions with Andersen about it, that the quality of the wood was really bad. Instead of it having a horizontal grain or something like that, it was a circle. It looks really like crap. At least two of those windows are double-hung and parts of them need to probably be replaced. I complained to my installer, and my installer upped it to his sales rep. Then the sales rep upped it up a little bit as well. So it's been escalated three times. I sent a note to them. This is all emails.

    I sent an email to this guy, whose name I can look up in a second, with pictures. I said, "Would you really want these in your house?" And he just hemmed and hawed and sort of like threw it back. So, it's a hot potato, if you know what I mean. And nobody's owning it. But it hasn't come to its conclusion. So that's kind of where it's at. So there were a couple of windows with the wood quality was, for lack of another word, Janky. The other windows were fine. I don't know who approved the wood. If you went to Home Depot and you were buying pieces of wood, you would not buy these pieces of wood.

    What was weird was the Andersen window that I purchased, not from Renewal by Andersen but I heard they were the same window, isn't the same window. My neighbor across the street has Renewal by Andersen windows and mine doesn't look anything like his. He just got them not that long ago. I was surprised. I thought they would be the same window. But I feel a lot better with the windows than I did when I first got them because I wasn't impressed with the window. I like the shiny vinyl better. It cleans easier and better. If I had to do it all over again, I would want to make sure that I saw examples first. I just went with it because it was Andersen, and I figured because of all the great reviews, they were the way to go. Other than that, the installers did a great job. They did anything that I asked them to do, including pulling out the biggest window in my home and reinstalling it.

    I wanted to go with Andersen when we did some window replacements and I got in touch with them online. They got back to me within a day and gave me a representative's name. The rep got ahold of me within the next few days and we set up a time when I'd be available and when he would be in the area. He came to the house and went through what I wanted to have done. I had three windows and a patio door put in and I was very pleased with the price. I thought it would probably be about $5,000 more minimum than what we were quoted. Then, I figured the installation would take a week but they were here two days. It was two gentlemen who came and did the work and they were very professional. They did a really nice job and there was not a bit of cleanup that I needed to do. I was very pleased with their attitude and their work ethic.

The only issue is there is a defect in the window. There's a crack in one of the panes, which happened five or six days after they installed it. We're working with our contractor and he had reached out to Andersen because there's a 20-year warranty on the glass. We are waiting for someone from Andersen to call us back.

    We spent $50,000 on replacement windows and two French door deck entrance ways. I have always been told while I was growing up, that Andersen was the best. What a big piece of horse manure!!!! We have not had nothing but trouble with all of their products. The French door entry ways consistently are in need of adjustment. Thanks to our contractor friend, that installed them has had to readjust them for us. The double hung windows are another problem, when I go to clean them, the top pane is jammed and will not go back up into place. Again, I have to get our contractor friend to "fix" it. They were also not compliant about our front bow window, they insisted it was the contractor's error with the measurement, even when their own representative, measurements agreed with the contractors.

    My family has always chosen Pella and Andersen Windows. When I did more investigation, I found out that I would like to use Andersen for the job that I had to do. We did a small house and chose small windows. We did the doors as well. The guys who came and put them in were excellent carpenters. They did all the things they needed to do. The home needed some support, and they shaped things up and made it plumb. The installation was done beautifully and I'm very pleased to have them. The quality is 90% from what I can see so far. I love the warranty. I was told it was a 30-year-warranty. If anything happened to it, the guys who put it in said not to touch it. We were to call them. If I did or anybody touched it besides them, their warranty would be void.

    We ended up with having issues with the people who built it. They were building their own windows with Andersen Windows but when they were building it, they made it too small so we ended up having to send it back. But the guys who sold it to us said, "We'll take care of it. It's not your problem." That was done well at the end and we're quite satisfied. I like the people that represented Andersen.

Also, now we're struggling finding out how to get shades and I've read that there are a lot of people with the same problem.

When I got the back door put in I thought it was good enough and we could have done the front door as well. We went ultra modern in the look and it came out really nice. We were wondering how to get that steel window look and Andersen was able to pull it off. You can feel the quality when it's shut. It feels like a door on a really nice car. It has a nice shut to it.

    However, it would be good if there were renderings to see this stuff. You get the architectural drawings, but it's just a bunch of lines. You can't see what it looks like. Another thing is everyone talks in codes - A series, D series and B series. None of that makes any sense to me. I just wanted to buy a window and know what it looked like.

    We have three new patio doors and three new windows installed and they look great. However, I've noticed that the locking lever on the patio doors does not go all the way up in the lock position. It goes about midway. The builder mentioned to his crew that there's an adjustment screw, but they didn't seem to be aware of that. There's a plate on the outer frame that they tried to reposition, but it didn't solve the problem.

    The other thing is there are caps that fill the holes in the bottom of the frame. Because of the way these patio doors were installed, there are two of them where the plugs are tearing the fabric on the lower track of one of the patio doors. I had to point it out to the guys because they had neglected to put them in on a couple of the doors. But those are the only two issues I've noticed. They're sturdy, solid doors and there's been a discernible difference in the temperature inside the house. Before, we had single pane patio doors and windows, and it was like an ice box in that house. Once the Andersen patio doors and windows were installed, it was a little bit warmer so that helped.

I'm hoping that this will get resolved fairly quickly. I paid good money for this window and now my house is still gonna be interrupted when they have to come back and do it right. We didn't see the imperfections because it had the covering on and it said right on it not to remove it until the window is put in.

    I love Andersen Windows. I bought the three Series 100 windows, a door, and a storm door and I like the quality. They did everything they said they were gonna do and that's exactly what I appreciated about them. Their rate was a little on the high side but I had good experience with Andersen Windows so I was willing to pay the little bit higher price. One thing that I was dissatisfied with was when I ordered the windows, I wanted the more expensive, better quality ones but it was gonna take about five to eight weeks and I didn't have time for that. I don't know how that's so difficult and why it takes six to eight weeks just to get in several windows.

    Andersen Windows has good quality. If someone is looking for custom doors, I would highly recommend them. I like how smooth the operation is even after many years. I had installed a door a few years ago and then about six months ago, I got a French door for the patio. The first time, I went with Renewal by Andersen and that was quite expensive. The next time, I went directly with Andersen and through a contractor and I'm quite happy with the price. The contractor came and we decided on the product. Then, the measurements were taken and the order was placed. At that time, they specifically said it was gonna take at least two months for the door to be manufactured and gave an estimated timeline. The door arrived within the time frame and the next week, they scheduled an appointment for installation and it was all done in a day.

    The French door is functional and very durable. It feels like a luxury door. I'm quite happy with it. But it’s slightly out of alignment now. So I have a hard time opening or closing. It gets stuck. There’s a little adjustment that I need to do, but I forgot which screw I need to tighten. I didn't want to knock it out of complete misalignment so I reached out to the salesperson who I was in touch with and he said he would get in touch with someone. But I haven't heard from anyone. I was hoping for a better service. But during the purchase and installation, the customer service was awesome.

    We purchased a storm door from Home Depot. When the incident occurred, we’d had it for about 3 weeks. Latching system is apparently weak and does not withstand strong winds. This is on top of a vacuum issue from the seals (I guess the seals are so good the door won’t close unless you lower the glass a bit to allow air to escape). Super annoying, but was willing to deal with it. Messaged everyone in the house to check behind themselves when leaving the house (when entering it’s not an issue as the main door is open so no air being trapped between doors to prevent closure, but we still check!). First time this happened, it ripped the bracket right out of the wall, and bent the closer. I blamed someone at the house for not making sure it was shut (now I have to go apologize).

    Got our contractor back to fix (not his fault at all, install was perfect), and we put in an even longer screw in with the door frame bracket (which is why it didn’t budge, can see in pic), with a heavy duty closer, better than the one that came with the door. So this cost us quite a bit in labor! I absolutely, positively checked before going to bed last night, door was shut. And when it’s not, our ring camera picks it up so I know right away. 6 AM on 4/4, I wake up to a loud bang, Seems the wind gust ripped the door from the crappy latching mechanism, ripped the closer bracket, bending the closer rod, causing the door to fly open, shattering the glass. Got up at 6AM to clean up this whole mess, on my day off… Verdict: Andersen 3000 series storm door sold at @homedepot is straight.

    The tree trimmer smashed a limb through one of our windows so we had it replaced. The Andersen certified contractor came and looked. They said it was gonna be three or four months before they got the window and then they called and told us what day they'd be here and they came and put it in. They were very pleasant and did a good job. They got the window installed in half a day and they came back the next day to paint the interior. But we paid what I thought was an excessive price because it was supposed to match the old windows and it didn't. I thought it took so long to get the window because they were getting one that would match the other one but the frame around there is different from the other window.

    Andersen Windows has a very good product. However, they have changed their concept of marketing. Up until two years ago, you could design your own window. If you acquired your product from Home Depot, you pick the color, the price range, and almost all the details on your own. I recently got two sliding glass patio doors and three large single. The quality is the same, buy it cost more than double. I didn't like that 'cause I wanted to know upfront what it would cost but it was harder to find out what I was paying for with regard to labor as opposed to material. On the first installation, the materials were delivered through Home Depot and were held in the custody of the contractor-provided handyman that did the work. I had the product delivered to my house and took care of preparation, wood trim, staining and the finishing of the wooden frame.

    If I were to do it over again, I would have investigated other brands and styles before I jumped into these particular windows. There are some things about the windows that don't represent the quality in which I thought I was getting with an Andersen window. I am very unhappy about the fact that all my arched windows ended up being a short. That was clearly not explained to me in any way until they were gonna do the installation on the windows. That was something that somebody should have said when they placed an order with Andersen. Andersen can't make those windows that size.

    Andersen Windows has the best selection of what we were trying to accomplish with our house. However, they screwed up some standing issues on some things. One of our windows was an octagon window. On that window, they’d put two different stains on it so there was a snafu coming from production where somebody missed it. QA/QC was not done. The window showed up at the installer's and they pointed it out to us. We were able to fix it locally and use that window. But that was clearly something Andersen should not have missed. They said it would be another month before I could get an octagon window. Considering the fact it was their mistake, I would have expected them to take care of it within a week.

    It took three months before we finally had everything from when we've received it to final installation and finish. That was a little longer than what we expected. I thought we'd have it done in a couple days. I'd recommend that Andersen Windows respond to customer issues quicker than they do. I didn't have any direct communications with them as all communications were with them and the installer. But it seemed to me that they could have been more responsive to their installer. Their installers are certified Andersen installers but they were giving the installer the cold shoulder. I was not impressed by the way that they were handling things. They could have done things better. They rely too much on their reputation but they didn't take care of the customer.

Andersen marketing literature claims a life of 20 to 40 years, for their windows. Four years later three large windows on the sunny side have failed, are leaking and damaging our home. A field rep came to look over the situation. He concluded this was not an installation issue but a product failure. The plastic frames were cracking and water was leaking in and damaging the structure and interior walls. AWC appears to be willing to replace the windows, while ignoring the reality that removal and re-installation will cost double the value of the windows themselves. Apart from the cost - am I going to have to replace the “replacement” windows again four years from now?? Andersen sells expensive windows, but their quality doesn't justify the price and their warranty is useless.

They had to do each one of them like that. But they've done a good job with us. They had to come back twice because we had some broken windows come in. I had one broke when it came. So, we had to wait on a replacement. That pushed the job a bit longer than what the rep said it would. But the broken window was beyond his means.

There's not a lift at the bottom of the window. So if the window is high and if you're not tall, you can't try to open the window from the bottom because there's nothing to grab onto. The lift is only in the middle.

    There's a little ledge that sticks out a little bit. It's only in the middle and it's not on the bottom. So, if you got a window above a sink, you can't reach 4 feet up to get to the middle to try to push. You'd have to touch the window itself. There needs to be a lift on the bottom that someone could use to pull the window up or open the window, and just the latch. But other than that, everything seems okay.

We will be having a hurricane and I'll see exactly how good they are because they're supposed to be hurricane-proof. Overall, I had a great experience and I highly recommended Andersen Windows.

    We got double-hung windows from Andersen. I'm happy with them. I have much less draft than I used to. The house is much tighter and less sound coming in than before. The sales rep was good. It was not a hard sell. He was matter-of-fact and answered all our questions. I wish the installers would have blocked off the windows better to keep the dust out.

There was a proposed date for the install in November that they scheduled me for, but I delayed it because I was out of the country.

    We purchased the 100 Series doors and windows. We were told that it would take 8 to 10 weeks on our contract and it ended up being 18 weeks. But I don't know if that was all on Andersen. I think some of it was on their contractor, too. Other than that, the installation went really well and the quality of the windows is overall good. But I'm a little disappointed with how they came out. Every one of our black windows has a white scuff and you have to go with your fingernail and that barely gets it off. We've been told that magic eraser is what we're gonna need to do but for how much money we spent, I don't feel like we should need to do that at all.

    The Andersen-certified contractor came and I told them what it is that I wanted and we talked through what it is I needed. The guy gave me different options, so I could pick out what I wanted. He then explained to me how they don't just replace the windows. They replace the entire sill inside and out. Because my sills were rotting, and he said that that's part of what they do when they replace the windows. I've had other replacement windows in other homes before where the people just replace the window and not the sills. After that visit, they came and measured the windows to get the exact measurements that they were gonna need to order it, then the person came to install the windows. Any time I had a question, they would answer. They would also talk me through what they were doing and why.

    A lot of times, I was just looking and they saw that I was curious, so they would engage with me and let me know what it is that they were doing, how long it was gonna take and what was going on. They exceeded my expectations in terms of the timeline. I purchased two replacement windows for my garage. They're opaque windows so that people can't see inside, and they're excellent for what I got. I would suggest Andersen Windows to people.

    Andersen is a big liar. They always say they're gonna deliver in four weeks but they never do. I also had that same experience when I bought the windows myself. The dealers that I bought them from said, "Oh, yeah, Andersen's good. They'll get them to you in six weeks." But it was 12 weeks. After the installation, I learned that if I paint the windows, I'll lose the warranty. That was a little distressing to me because I wanted to paint the insides of the windows with everything else in my house. Also, Andersen is overly expensive. The product doesn't look as high-end as I would like it to look.

    I got a bunch of Andersen A-300s 'cause they're Fibrex windows, and the installation process was fine. The first time around, there were no issues. They walked the job, checked the materials, and everything was good. The second time around, they did not walk the job on them, and they put the wrong glass in the wrong spot. I'm still waiting for the guy to come out and put the tempered glass in where it should go. I also have a crack in a pane that I'm still waiting to have replaced. All of that exists from not walking the project and the materials before they started working. They need to come back out and fix those. It's wintertime and it's been cold, but they'll come out someday. I've withheld money on them.

    Andersen also has a horrible installation detail on their windows, especially on their transoms. The side of the window needs to be screwed through and into the framing, and that screw is a tapered head, much like a deck screw. It's white, but it sits proud instead of being a button head or a pan head where it sits flushed. It looks like crap. I had the guy come through and modify the installation on them because I couldn't stand looking at them. It's a simple thing, but if I'm gonna spend 50 grand on 10 windows, I expect the screw detail to look right. I would have selected different windows for certain parts of the house had I known it, but beyond my annoyance with the screw detail, the windows work very well.

    Original Review: Jan. 29, 2024

    Updated on 02/23/2024: Had a representative come out and had to put additional door seals on 3 exterior doors. Now we are having lady bugs and flies getting around the loose fitting window screens and then coming in through the closed double hung windows. Apparently the windows where they slide up and down are not completely sealed so thus all the bugs! Anderson representative called me and advised me that they don’t cover insect getting around screens and in through a closed window.

    The representative then sent me their warranty on what is not covered and here is the exact wording, “What is NOT covered by this Limited Warranty: Insects passing through or around the insect screen.” So Anderson cannot make windows that can’t be penetrated by insects. I would go with a different company that makes windows that are completely sealed so insects don’t come in your home. I will never buy windows from Anderson again! Buyer Beware!

    Original: We had our new home built and new Andersen Doors and windows were installed. Most of the Exterior Doors lacked weather protection and were letting cold air come in at the bottom and up the sides of the doors. We had to put weather stripping on them to keep the cold air out. We paid a lot of money for these doors and are not satisfied at all. If I could give no stars I would. Save your money and time and buy different doors than Andersen doors.

    We got windows and one patio door. We really like the window. It keeps the house a lot warmer, especially that room that we changed the window. That room is right above the garage, and it tends to get a little bit cooler, especially in the wintertime. But that window seems to help with that. The only thing that we noticed is that that the window makes a hollow sound. It's in the background. It’s not really loud. But everything else is perfect. Everything is tightly sealed. It's a really good product.

    We dealt with Johnson County Siding & Windows instead of with Andersen directly. They give you a timeline. They tell you exactly how the process is gonna go. They tell you exactly what the price is gonna be and then they stick to it. So, there's no surprises. That's the one thing that I appreciated the most about it. They were very realistic with their timeline. So, you know exactly what you're going to get even before you sign a contract with them.

    I got a mix of sliding windows and tempered glass windows. One window was the wrong size and the installers came back and completed everything. They were fast and efficient. The windows look great and I feel very good about them. Andersen had installed several windows for me after I got hit by a tornado in 2017. I was so pleased with the experience and the windows that I got at that time that I reached back out to Andersen Windows when I was able to replace the rest of the windows with the same types. They treated me outstandingly well.

    I would recommend Andersen Windows to others. They were very good and came out here quickly after I made the initial call to get the windows. I was pleasantly surprised that the windows came in sooner than I had expected and they were installed. I was the hold-up when we scheduled installation because of some other stuff that was going on at the time. But whenever they were able to get out here, they jumped on it and did a great job. The windows are expensive but I recognize that stuff is more expensive. At the same time, there are some other window manufacturers. I live in the Taylor area and there's one here. Their price point is lower but I went with Andersen because I knew the quality of the windows and it meant a lot to me that I had gotten a referral from a friend. So, that worked out well.

    We have 2 single hung kitchen windows, installed on brand new build, 2022. When we moved in, we had a rep come out and said yes, the windows need replacing. It is now January of 2024. We talked to Brian, showed a video of the problem, the bottom panes move side to side about 3/4 inch while closed. He said that’s normal. I’ve never seen windows do that. And we get gnats in the summer because of it. A window should not move side to side when closed or opened. Very dissatisfied.

    Thank you for your review. Andersen's warranty covers defects in the manufacturing process. Sash movement can be expected and does not affect window operation. It is not a manufacturing defect and is not covered under the limited warranty. The movement allows the sash to be removed and reinstalled in the event the sash or balancers need to be replaced.
