They have always had a good reputation for making quality vinyl window and doors. In fact, I still contend that they are the best brand in the western half of the country In 2021, the company sold to PGT Innovations (PGT Windows And Doors), which along with companies like MI (or MITER), have been gobbling up smaller window companies with some consistency. Anlin’s quality has not been affected or changed in any way since their acquisition, so consumers can be happy about that.
What They SellAnlin is an interesting example for what they sell. The company has their standard vinyl windows — the Catalina, the Coronado, the Del Mar and the Panoramic series. All quite good options that are small offshoots of one another. The Del Mar is their premium series fyi. They also sell a quality sliding patio door with their Malibu series.
How They MarketAnlin follows a pretty traditional sales and marketing approach, which is to use a network of local window companies to sell their windows&doors. This is the way most companies sell their products, as opposed to using a direct-to-consumer apporach as do companies like Universal Windows Direct or Apex Energy solutions. The other approach, which Anlin doe not use, is to sell through retail stores such as Home Depot, Lowes, and Menards.
Cost ComparisonAnlin window prices< are a 6 to 8 on a scale of 1 to 10 on the vinyl windows cost range. Their more budget minded series - the Mar Vista and Monte Verde should fall in that 6 range, their Catalina, Coronado, and Panaramic should fall into that 7 range, and their premium Del Mar series will be in that 8 price range.
Have a question on Anlin Windows vs Milgard? Hit me up. dane@replacementwindowsreviews.co Anlin v MilgardHey guys, was wondering if you could kind of do a brand breakdown for me. I have bids from Anlin on their Panoramic and Coronado series. I also have a bid on the Milgard Tuscany. The prices are roughly the same although the Anlin is about $1500 more, but it is for 25 windows, so the price isn’t that big a concern for me unless it just doesn’t make sense in your opinion. I live in Dana Point California. I would love to get your two cents.
[Site Editor's Answer]Trina, while Milgard is definitely a reputable brand when coupled with professional installation, it isn’t quite up to par with Anlin. I would say that the Coronado and Panoramic window series the superior options over the Tuscany. Not to say that I don’t like the Tuscany, it is a decent performer, but it isn’t quite what the Anlin is in terms of overall craftsmanship and quality. I would definitely pay the additional $1500, and guess the better window, specially if your timeline in the home is anything over 5 to 7 years.
Anlin Windows vs MilgardHi Dane, we live just outside of Tucson Arizona in a received several quotes that I’d love to get your take on. This is for new construction and it includes two horizontal sliders and three picture windows. The quote on the Anlin Delmar series was $4700 and that included everything, we also had a quote from Milgard on their Trinzic series and that was $4200. By the way, I’m rounding everything to the nearest hundred dollars. I’m sure that you understand. Finally, we got a quote from Renewal by Andersen and that was $7900.
[Site Editor's Answer]Betsy, I would say that the Renewal bid is probably high, but they do make a very pretty window. If that's something that you want to pursue, I would say that for that product, and for the bids that I see from that company, that’s probably a decent deal. I would say the best long-term value in those three options is probably the Anlin Delmar option. It’s a pretty fair price, depending on how large the windows are, but for full frame or new construction installation, that’s not a bad price at all. I would consider the Milgard option if and only if the company doing the installation has really really good reviews. I hope that helps!
