Windows are not just a design element. They greatly impact your home’s energy efficiency, comfort, lighting, and ventilation. In fact, the U.S. Department of Energy cites that heat gain and loss through your windows accounts for 25% to 30% of residential heating and cooling energy use.

We’ve researched the industry’s best replacement windows, evaluating and comparing them in over a dozen categories, including warranty coverage and energy efficiency. Renewal by Andersen is our highest-scoring brand and top pick due to its superior window engineering and in-house installation services. See our other top picks for the best window companies below and learn what to look for when buying new windows.

We examined more than a dozen of the top window brands’ product selections and performance, customer reviews, support options, financing programs, and more to see what they offer customers and how they compare. We used a detailed methodology to rate and rank them in key categories. Based on our research, the following are the best window brands for your home:

See how our chosen brands compare in cost and rating. All brands that made our list scored at least four out of five stars when tested against our methodology.

State availability: 50 Warranty options: Limited and lifetime limited warranties Price range: $680–$2,700 Energy-efficient products available: Yes Renewal by Andersen is a subsidiary of the Andersen Corporation, one of the largest and most respected window manufacturers in the United States. Renewal by Andersen focuses on replacement windows made of durable and long-lasting Fibrex composite material, which is said to be twice as strong as vinyl. Renewal’s products hold ENERGY STAR-certification for their efficiency, and the company has an in-house installation team specially trained to install its products. You can easily customize your Renewal windows with the company’s color, hardware, and grille pattern options. As for energy efficiency, it has been an ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year for nine years in a row, which it credits to its high-performance Fibrex frame material and low-emissivity (low-e) glass coating. You can increase your glass’s performance by adding Renewal’s proprietary technology options, such as its SmartSun and HeatLock, which better prevent heat transfer and keep your home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. 

Pros  Sells several window lines, including storm windows Has an in-house installation team Offers a 20-year warranty on glass Cons Doesn’t sell vinyl or aluminum window options  Varies warranty coverage by window line Has an industry reputation of higher pricing than most competitors

Renewal by Andersen’s most popular window is its Acclaim™ double-hung window. It has a classic look that suits a variety of homes, from contemporary to historic. Both sashes open for ventilation and tilt inward to make cleaning easier. There are nine exterior color options, 10 hardware options, and five grille options.

Renewal by Andersen makes the following window types:

Renewal by Andersen is accredited by the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and holds an impressive A+ rating on the review site.* Customers rate it 3 out of 5 stars, which is above average for many window companies we’ve reviewed. 

We read many customer reviews stating that everyone they encountered at the company was helpful and courteous and that they loved their windows. The most common themes among negative reviews were that the wrong windows arrived and installation and repair delays.

*All BBB ratings in this article are accurate as of May 2024.

“Very professional crew. Outstanding workmanship. Kept inside and outside of house clean. Would wholeheartedly recommend this crew, these windows, and sliding glass door to anyone!” 

“They are great about reaching out prior to installation. Once the windows have been installed, they no longer return your calls. I am missing the sliding glass door screen, one window, and one window was installed with a crack. I have made multiple calls and spoken to several people. They have sent two different contractors out to measure and nothing comes of it. This has been going on for over a year.”

Renewal handles installation in-house, so you won’t need to go through an installer network or hire an outside contractor. The brand has its own installation team trained to install its windows. Its installation process is meticulous, including cleaning the jobsite and disposing of your old windows.  

State availability: 28* Warranty options: Limited lifetime warranty Price range: $400–$850 Energy-efficient products available: Yes Champion’s window quality is well-rated for energy efficiency and durability. The brand offers frequent generous discounts and a 0% financing option. Champion also has more window styles than many competitors and provides in-house installation services. All of Champion’s windows are ENERGY STAR-certified and made with its high-performing Comfort 365 glass, which the company says blocks 93% of the sun’s UV rays. Champion’s other energy efficiency features include its airtight meeting rails, weather-proof composite locking, triple weatherstripping, and insulated pocket sill.  Champion offers a range of color, hardware, and grid options, though not as many as Renewal by Andersen. *Available in Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, and Wisconsin.

Pros  Offers a wide selection of sunroom and patio options  Features several ENERGY STAR-certified windows Offers in-house installation and customization Cons Doesn’t sell fiberglass, composite, or wood windows Has limited state availability  Varies price by location

We like that Champion offers numerous eco-friendly products, such as its ENERGY STAR-certified Comfort 365 Window Glass. This glass features a specialized low-emissivity (low-e) coating and an insulating argon gas filling that blocks roughly 94% of harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. These features mean that you, your guests, and your pets stay cool during summer and warm in winter, while still receiving plenty of natural sunlight. This is a standout benefit given that the homeowners we surveyed cited improved energy efficiency as their second-highest motivation for investing in new windows. We especially recommend Champion for sunroom or patio projects. The company offers completely customized sunrooms with an in-depth, personalized installation process. This includes projects such as all-season sunrooms, three-season sunrooms, patio enclosures, and screen rooms.

Champion makes the following window styles:

Champion isn’t currently accredited with BBB, and we noticed its once-high score has recently been changed to “Not Rated.” One reason may be the alert shown on its profile, which notes that many customers have filed complaints that the company isn’t responsive and misses appointment times. 

Despite this, Champion still has 3 out of 5 stars from customers out of more than 800 reviews. Positive themes include professional installers and beautiful, high-performing windows. Some customers reported ignored warranty claims and communication gaps.

“Champion installers did a fabulous job! Explained all the aspects of the work and installation.Carefully installed my beautiful windows. So very polite and professional! I appreciate the attention to detail.” 

“Terrible customer service. Delivery of items not timely or correct. Phone calls to customer service & local office not returned. Job not completed until 10 months after contract signed.”

Champion is another company that has its own in-house installation team. Its site says it finishes most installations in a day and that its limited lifetime warranty covers every aspect of the installation. The company even includes a video on its full installation process. 

State availability: 10* Warranty options: Lifetime warranty Price range: $300–$500 Energy-efficient products available: Yes Castle Windows, also known as “The Windows People,” has been providing window replacement services since 1977. Having served over a million homeowners, Castle has built a trusted brand with high-quality replacement windows, entry doors, and roofing siding services. We like that Castle features a 24/7 customer support line, which we tested by calling at 10:30 p.m. ET. We also like that Castle offers a transferable lifetime warranty, covering all parts, glass, and components of your windows, including screens. Castle’s site doesn’t include many details about its energy features, but it does say it constructs its windows using double-pane, double-strength glass and dual security locks. We did find that it applies a low-e glass coating to its windows and adds nontoxic argon gas between panes for added insulation.  *Available in Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Virginia.

Pros Provides a comprehensive lifetime warranty Offers deadlite, transom, and other custom specialty windows Makes stylish basement hopper windows with double weather stripping and insulated glass Cons Has limited state availability Sells only vinyl window frames Doesn’t sell single-hung windows

Castle makes design-friendly double-hung and basement hopper windows with double weather stripping, insulated glass, and a maintenance-free vinyl frame with a tilt-slash for easy cleaning.

Castle sells the following window types:

Castle holds an A+ rating with the BBB and 3.1 out of 5 stars from customers. Reviews are mixed. Many customers say the company is fast, responsive, and helpful. Negative reviews cite missed appointments, denied warranty claims, and lack of communication. 

“This was my best experience with a home renovation company. Castle is nothing but professional from top to bottom. Start to finish, the process was surprisingly fast. When calling the company, you reach a live person who listens and gets you to the correct people to keep the process moving forward. Installers went above and beyond to correct issues caused from previous installation. I would recommend to anyone. The product and service were worth the cost.”

“Our windows are actively leaking and causing damage to our trim and drywall. They are claiming it’s not covered by the warranty, which the warranty states it is. We asked for an appt for repair to the windows, which we would pay for. The appt day and time comes and they don’t show up.”

Castle’s website doesn’t mention installation services, but its customer reviews and warranty details tell us it offers in-house installation services. 

State availability: 50 Warranty options: Limited warranties Price range: $250–$900 Energy-efficient products available: Yes Based out of Minnesota, Marvin Windows has more than 100 years of experience in the window replacement industry. This leading manufacturer has eight factories across the United States to produce various window types and materials. Marvin produces windows with wood, fiberglass, and extruded aluminum materials, and it offers three signature collections. Though Marvin’s site thoroughly details what to look for when assessing energy efficiency, it doesn’t describe how its windows perform. Marvin does mention that its proprietary fiberglass frame material is three times stronger than vinyl/wood composites and will outlast vinyl framing by 38%. The brand claims its fiberglass materials provide superior thermal performance.

Pros Has hurricane-rated windows for coastal homes Sells skylights Has many custom design options, including hardware Cons Features limited warranty options compared with other providers Doesn’t have in-house installation services Doesn’t make vinyl window options

We recommend Marvin’s Signature Ultimate windows and doors. These are available in a range of wood species and various stains and paint options. Marvin sands, conditions, stains and oven-cures each piece of wood for an added layer of luxury. This process provides a rich finish. We also suggest Marvin’s Signature Coastal windows if you own a coastal home. The company designs these windows to operate in extreme storms and hurricanes.

Marvin makes the following windows:

Marvin has an A+ rating on its BBB profile, but its 1.3 out of 5 stars from customers is much lower than the customer ratings of competitors. A common complaint is finding faulty window parts that the company doesn’t replace or repair promptly.

Our rating of the company using our methodology scores Marvin 4.6 out of 5 stars in key categories, so we’re still including it on our list as an option. We’re also mentioning it here because it’s one of the few brands that makes energy-efficient skylights and has a range of coastal-friendly window options. 

“While the windows are pretty, the jams were bowed on nearly every window. What is worse is that one of our windows arrived damaged. Our contractor has been waiting for four months to get a replacement window. We spent over $35,000 on Marvin windows and have been on hold for four months waiting for them to respond.”

“We purchased seven windows and a slider window in 2022. Nothing but problems with the windows. The installer has done everything possible to correct our issues. While condensation is normal and expected in the winter months due to high humidity, our windows sweat to the point the frames, sills, sash around the window, and window pull are dripping wet on every window.”

Marvin is another manufacturer that doesn’t provide installation. You can use its Find a Dealer page to locate an office near you. 

State availability: 22* Warranty options: 10-year and lifetime warranties Price range: $500–$1,350 Energy-efficient products available: Yes A trusted name in the Northeastern United States, Harvey Windows and Doors offers two different window lines. We consider its solid Ponderosa Pine Majesty Wood collection one of the best wooden windows on the market. These windows have been specially treated to resist rot, degradation, splitting, warping, and mildew. They also have extruded aluminum exterior cladding to protect the sashes from outdoor conditions. Additionally, Harvey bevels these windows to match the aesthetics of other wood windows. Harvey lists several energy efficiency features that enhance its windows’ performance, starting with the thick walls and multiple air chambers it builds into its frames and sashes to enhance thermal insulation. The company also applies a low-e coating to control heat transfer, as well as advanced weatherstripping, argon gas filling between panes, and a u-channel spacer system that better insulates around the edges of the glass.  *Available in Alabama, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia, and West Virginia.

Pros Offers high-quality wood window line, Majesty Wood Protects quality vinyl windows with lifetime warranty Offers UV Tough Coat paint Cons  Has limited state availability Offers only 10-year warranties on its Majesty Wood windows  Doesn’t offer in-house installation services

The Majesty Wood collection is backed by only a 10-year warranty, but Harvey’s Classic Vinyl collection includes a lifetime warranty. Its Classic Vinyl collection comes with five BetterGrain interior finishes, which mimic the look of natural wood windows. You can pair these premium vinyl windows with the company’s UV Tough black or bronze stock colors. This coat is seven times stronger than industry-standard water-based paints, ensuring your windows will look great longer.

Harvey sells these window types:

Harvey has an A+ rating on its BBB profile and an impressive 4.8 out of 5 stars, the highest customer rating we’ve seen in the window industry. Reviewers point out quick, easy communication and problem resolution, as well as good window quality and an easy warranty claim process. The few negative reviews mention niche issues, such as changes in distribution, which the average customer isn’t likely to have a problem with. 

“Great experience with Harvey. When I moved there were several broken window sashes. Called Harvey and someone answered the phone right away and it was no problem to replace the damaged sashes even though I was not the original purchaser. Replacements were mailed directly to my home and I only had to pay for shipping. There was an issue with one of them, but customer service was great and sent out a replacement. They were easy to install and look great.”

“I called to find out if my 16 year old window was guaranteed against seal breakage and your rep was more than patient and helpful. She located my original order and confirmed that I was still under guarantee to replace the glass and how to go about having it installed. I couldn’t have been more pleased with how I was treated.”

One downside to Harvey is that it doesn’t handle installation in-house. Rather, you must go through one of its distributors or hire a licensed outside contractor. 

State availability: 12* Warranty options: Full and limited lifetime warranties Price range: $200–$600 Energy-efficient products available: Yes Unlike other window companies that rely on third-party providers to produce their glass and hardware components, Milgard manufactures all parts of its windows entirely in-house. We tested Milgard’s chat feature on its website to ask what the benefits of in-house manufacturing are. A representative explained that keeping everything under one company allows for better communication due to fewer parties involved, as well as faster production and delivery, a higher likelihood of product quality, and more comprehensive customer support. It also means a more robust warranty. Milgard is one of the few brands that offers three frame materials: vinyl, fiberglass, and aluminum. All of its windows can be customized with a range of colors, grid layouts, and hardware options. You can also choose from different glass packages, such as tinted or obscured. All glass is made with Milgard’s SunCoatMAX low-e coating and dual-glazed technology, which it says gives double-pane windows triple-pane performance. Like many energy-efficient window brands, Milgard inserts insulative gas between window panes for added performance. *Available in Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming.

Pros  Provides a full lifetime warranty option for some series  Sells three frame material options Offers SmartTouch Hardware for easy locking and unlocking Cons Doesn’t offer in-house installation services Has limited state availability Has a limited window selection compared to many brands

Though Milgard doesn’t offer wooden windows, it provides various other options to fit your home’s style. Its Trinsic Series | V300 has a modern look with thin frames and a minimalist design. TheUltra Series | C650 uses wood-clad fiberglass, so it withstands heavy weathering but maintains a traditional wooden window aesthetic. Milgard offers an excellent selection of specialty windows, including skylights. Other specialty window options include high-quality radius, bay, bow, and garden windows.

Milgard makes the following window types:

Milgard has an F rating on its BBB profile, but we’ve included it on our list because it has one of the highest customer ratings of any brand, so this rating may be inaccurate. Milgard has 4.6 out of 5 stars from more than 700 customers, which we feel is a more accurate representation of the company.

Customers cite high-quality windows, efficient and respectful employees, and a positive warranty experience. A small percentage of customers report a lack of responsiveness and claim denial. 

“We’ve had our Milgard windows for almost 20 years. They are outstanding quality, and when we’ve had a few minor issues they are handled quickly and professionally.”

“My service guy did a really great job. The windows look wonderful. He was careful of my furnishings and kept his work area clean. He was courteous and quick. I am very pleased with the results.”

Milgard doesn’t have an in-house installation team. You can check its Dealer page to find a location near you that you can arrange installation through, or you can hire a third-party contractor. Milgard provides detailed installation guidance on its site. 

State availability: 50 Warranty options: Limited warranties Price range: $450–$2,000 Energy-efficient products available: Yes Pella is one of the largest window manufacturers in the United States and can be found at home improvement retailers such as The Home Depot and Lowe’s. We like that it prioritizes green technology and energy-efficient windows, helping you to keep your home comfortable during cold winters and hot summers while benefiting the environment. Pella uses sustainable sources and works with wood vendors who practice responsible harvest and replenishment. Additionally, most Pella windows and doors meet ENERGY STAR performance guidelines and include a low-e insulating coat. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) even recognized Pella for its efforts in pollution prevention with an ENERGY STAR Award in 2009. Pella claims its 250 series’ triple-pane windows are 62% more energy efficient than single-pane windows on average. Upgrading to Pella’s energy efficiency package allows you to bundle triple-pane glass design with upgraded AdvancedComfort low-e glass and built-in blinds or shades designed for maximum efficiency.

Pros  Has windows at a variety of price points Features nationwide availability, including at Lowe’s and Home Depot  Offers cost-effective but stylish options Cons Doesn’t provide in-house installation services Has a shorter glass warranty than some competitors May have customer service issues according to some customer reviews

Pella offers a large selection of window lines. Its Architect and Lifestyle series include high-quality, detailed wooden windows. These windows feature a traditional, timeless design with finely detailed sash and grille profiles to add architectural interest to your home. Pella also offers a minimalist, durable line of fiberglass windows in its Impervia series.

Pella makes the following window designs:

Pella’s A+ BBB rating affirms the brand’s quality, but its customer rating of 1.3 out of 5 stars signifies some issues in how the company does business. However, we did see that its most recent reviews indicate that quality and service are on an upswing, so it’s possible former issues have been resolved. Customers report loving their windows long-term, while others said window features weren’t as promised and support professionals were unhelpful in resolving issues. 

“Pella is back on top with their quality and service! Very thoughtful company and quality with their products and follow-up with their staff.”

“I will never put Pella windows in my house again! I built a home 20 years ago and put all Pella windows in. I have one window that the roll-down screen will not lock in place. I called for a service and they said it would be $225 just to come out, and they cannot guarantee they will have a part to fix it and I would still have to pay the $225 because all these windows have been discontinued.”

Pella doesn’t have in-house installers. You can enter your location on its site to find a Pella-certified contractor or purchase Pella windows at a local home improvement retailer and ask about professional installation there. Another option is the company’s Power by Pella partnership with Power Home Remodeling, which is also featured on our list. Power Home expertly installs certain Pella window collections, meaning you’ll get a Pella manufacturer’s warranty and Power Home workmanship warranty.

The right windows for your home are the ones that suit your style while being within your budget and offering a substantial return on investment through their performance. Performance should be your top priority. If you must compromise on anything, make it superficial features, such as hardware or customization options. Invest first in energy efficiency. 

Nearly 92% of the homeowners we surveyed said ENERGY STAR certification was important to them, and over 78% said they noticed a reduction in electricity bill costs after upgrading their windows. If you want windows that don’t just look nicer in your home but also help you save money, look for an ENERGY STAR-certification, National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) certification, and other markers of energy efficiency. Common features include triple-pane glass, low-e coatings, and additional insulation.

The Department of Energy recommends looking for two main ratings when buying windows: U-factor and the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SGHC). The U-factor measures how well the window insulates. The lower the U-factor, the better the window insulates. The SGHC measures how much of the sun’s heat comes through the window. The lower it is, the less solar heat the window allows.

For northern climates, ENERGY STAR recommends windows with the following ratings:

For other climates, ENERGY STAR recommends:

“[Energy Star] carries the reputation of being the best on the market, and will put a few dollars back in your pocket with your heating and cooling bills,”

– Colin Sullivan, Director of Production for Renewal By Andersen’s Carolinas Division

While double-hung windows are a popular type of window, casement windows are one of the best choices due to their energy-efficient characteristics and low maintenance. Below are the most common window styles you’ll encounter during your search.

Most window manufacturers offer limited lifetime warranties and/or labor warranties. Limited lifetime warranties cover the cost of the window parts but do not always cover the labor.

The term lifetime often refers to the estimated time the window will maintain its manufactured quality. For example, lower- quality windows may have an estimated life span of fewer than five years, while higher- quality windows may be expected to last for more than 15 years. The length of the warranty will match those estimations. However, some manufacturers mean the actual lifetime of the window. These warranties also tend to be transferable to new homeowners.

Lifetime limited window warranties typically cover the following items:

A labor warranty covers installation errors, not manufacturing defects. Labor warranties may require you to pay a service call fee.

Window labor warranties typically cover the following:

We recommend hiring a window installation contractor that the manufacturer approves. This makes it easier to receive coverage if an issue occurs. Otherwise, the manufacturer may try to blame the installer or vice versa. 

Nearly 92% of the homeowners we surveyed said ENERGY STAR certification was important to them, and over 78% said they noticed a reduction in electricity bill costs after upgrading their windows. If you want windows that don’t just look nicer in your home but also help you save money, look for ENERGY STAR-certification and other markers of energy efficiency. Some common features include triple-pane glass, a low-e coating, or additional insulation.

Reading other homeowners’ reviews will help you gain an accurate insight into what it’s like dealing with a particular company. We read more than 100 reviews for each company we researched to see what homeowners had to say about product performance, customer service, timeliness, responsiveness, professionalism, pricing, and other factors that affect your experience.

Below are the most common factors customers report making or breaking their window-buying experience. We recommend paying close attention when these factors come up in customer reviews.

Window companies allow you to get a quote online and by phone. Most brands’ websites include a quote form you can quickly fill out. Some ask only for your contact information, while others may ask a few other questions about your home or the windows you’re interested in. You’ll have to wait for a representative to reach out to you to get your quote, which may take a couple days. Since the representative will ask you further questions over the phone about your home and what you’re looking for, you may want to just call and skip the wait. 

We recommend getting a quote from at least three companies to compare pricing. When comparing costs, don’t just look at the number. Rather, compare the value for the price. Look at which customization options, energy features, labor, warranty coverage, financing options, etc. at that cost.

The most cost-effective way to pay for new windows is to pay in full upfront. If this expense is too high, window companies offer financing options. Some brands offer financing in-house, while some work with third-party lenders. The most common types of window financing options include:

Also look for other incentives that help make paying for your windows more manageable, such as discounts for buying a certain number of windows or seasonal deals.

Choosing the right windows and manufacturer isn’t all there is to consider. If your manufacturer doesn’t provide in-house installation, you’ll need to go through its installer network or browse local contractors to put the windows in. This shouldn’t be an afterthought. The quality of the window installation is just as important as the quality of the windows themselves. Improper installation can lead to poor energy efficiency, voided warranty coverage, and window or wall damage. 

Take the following steps to find a reputable local window installer:

The table below outlines the average window replacement cost per window:

The most durable type of window is fiberglass.

This refers to window material rather than style. Window frames are typically made from aluminum, vinyl, composite, fiberglass, or wood. While all are considered plenty durable, fiberglass is superiorly weather-resistant and low-maintenance. It won’t rust, warp, corrode, or rot. It provides excellent insulation and energy efficiency and is known for its long life span. Many window brands include longer and more comprehensive warranties for their fiberglass window options due to how reliable and high-quality it is. You’ll typically pay more for fiberglass windows than any other material type, but you’ll also see a better return on investment on average for such a durable material. 

We recommend Renewal by Andersen as our top window brand because it’s so well-rounded. The company has a large product range backed by comprehensive warranties. Its windows are rigorously tested for performance and certified by ENERGY STAR. Plus, Renewal will send its own in-house professional team to install your windows, so you don’t have to deal with hiring a third party. 

We suggest reading testimonials and getting a price estimate from at least three window brands before making your decision. You can use our tool below to get quickly matched to local installers.

The best time to replace windows is in the spring or early summer when it’s warm but not too hot.

Given its vast industry experience, wide product selection, and comprehensive warranties, Renewal by Andersen is considered a superior window and door company. Champion Windows is a close second for its energy-efficient glass options and in-house installation team.

Hinged-sash window types make good options for most homes since they’re highly energy-efficient with a firm weathertight seal. Casement windows are a popular hinged-sashed window type.

We researched and analyzed dozens of window manufacturers. We then crafted a rating system based on each brand’s standard and energy-efficient product offerings.

We spoke directly to representatives at each company to learn how the installation process works and determine how each brand personalizes its windows for each home. We also closely analyzed each company’s warranty options to ensure their product and labor guarantees match or exceed industry standards. 

Finally, we assessed the manufacturer’s years of experience and customer reputation. In addition, we analyzed the 100 most recent Google Reviews for each provider across various locations and branches.
