Gerkin Windows vs Pella
Gerkin Windows vs Pella - do these two brands stack up? Gerkin (Nebraska based) is the much smaller company here and the much less known from a consumer standpoint. The company make a quality product overall, although they manufacture vinyl and aluminum windows (compare to Pella, just below). Price wise, Gerkin is going to be close to Pella, although I think for the most part, Gerkin achieves a slightly lower overall price point.
Pella is the much bigger and better known manufacturer in this head-to-head comparison. The company is based out of Iowa, but can be found in all 50 U.S. states. Pella makes a good quality product, although they manufacture wood-clad, vinyl, and fiberglass windows. Price wise, Pella will be somewhat more expensive than Gerkin in most cases.
Overall Rating: Gerkin Windows gets a 8.0 rating out of 10. Pella gets a 8.5 rating out of 10.

Gerkin Windows vs Pella
Company Information
Gerkin Windows & Doors, not a household name, manufactures aluminum, vinyl, and storm windows and doors. The company is located in South Sioux City, Nebraska and has been in the fenestration industry since 1923 - that's a long time for such a small-ish company.
Pella Windows & Doors, definitely a household name, manufactures wood-clad, vinyl, and fiberglass windows and doors. The company is located in Pella, Iowa and has been in the fenestration industry since the 1925 - it's amazing to me that Gerkin has been around longer than Pella!
"Pella is going to be the much easier to find around the country (available in all states), but I like Gerkin in the locations where they operate. A quality buy at the right price point."
What They Sell
Gerkin manufactures three window/door series: the Comfort series (vinyl), the Rhino series (aluminum), and their Storm series (also aluminum). This is easy to understand from a consumer perspective - which can't be said for some others such as Simonton Windows, who sells like 20 different vinyl windows.
Cost Comparison
Gerkin vinyl window costs are going to be 6/7 out of 10. Their Rhino series (aluminum) is going to run 7 out of 10. Their storm series will run 7/8 out of 10 (compared to other storm windows). More on what Gerkin Windows cost.
