Yes, very much so.
We had a very good install experience as well, which I'm sure can make all the difference.
Very glad we chose these vs some very expensive alternatives.

Thanks and good luck!

Greetings all, just wanted to post a quick follow-up and express how pleased I am with our new Gerkin windows. It's been 5 months, and they're as good as new (well, we let em get dirty, but so it goes... :) Customer service has also been very helpful. We had one issue with a screen that was bent in ...

Low-and-behold, our install day has finally arrived. Contractor dropped off our 15 windows and one slider today, and will begin installing tomorrow. I've been lurking for long enough to know mostly what to look/watch out for, but any last minute suggestions for an install spectator? I'll keep everyo...

P.S. The same place where I found Gerkin also carried the Hallmark windows. He claimed those were turds compared to Gerkin... For whatever it's worth.

dirtyp, I just put in an order for Gerkin windows in KS. Unfortunately, even with no options, I didn't see any that were less than $250. Close, but not quite. Just curious (not that it matters too much know since the order is in) but do you know much about Gerkin? Everything I've read has been good,...

Buddy, Mr. Dole is from Russell, a few (long, flat and grueling) hours west of here. We do have the Dole Center on the KU campus here, though. He still makes a cameo once or twice a year :) I'm looking at the Gerkin Comfort Series for our whole house. A relatively unknown regional-ish company. Not a...

Just confirmed: No Low E coat with in-between blinds.

They only use the Cardinal soft coat, so apparently blinds would scratch it up.

Howdy, we're in the final stages of picking our windows, and my wife is super sold on blinds-between-the-glass for our 6ft slider patio door. My question: will this kill any energy efficiency we would have hoped to gain from a new door? I know there will be no argon, but still need to find out if it...

Heya Todd,

when you say their double-hungs are overpriced, in comparison to what? Overpriced for what you get? Overpriced compared to other makers?

thanks,
Casey

hmm, my thread has taken a turn for the awesome... well, back to my question, I went to check out the Impervia. And I tend to agree with everyone, it looks ugly and was tough to move up and down. Unfortunately, I can't compare it next to any other fiberglass (easily) since there are no Marvin dealer...

Thanks JScott and Todd. Sioux City NE, not Iowa. I had to look twice :) Well, since I can't find much information about Gerkin vinyl in-general, I've decided to research the components/features that I know from the brochure separately to see if, in theory, it sums up to a good window... Here's what ...

Howdy, figured I better start a new post to inquire about a specific brand... Anyone know anything about Gerkin vinyl windows (comfort series) or have any reviews. I know they are a smaller company (Nebraska), are known more for commercial aluminum, and there is very little 'customer generated' info...

How about difference in both price/features between Marvin Infinity and Marvin Integrity? Is the Infinity more preferred, and if so, why?

I found a local company "who can get them"

Thanks again for all the help.

Casey

Anybody know generally how prices on the Marvin Infinity compare to either Impervia or the Gorell?

Thanks,
Casey

Lawrence KS. About an hour W of Kansas City. Just curious, we've been more inclined to go with the more comprehensive install, since he will re-stain all of our interior trim. But want to know, with a replacement window, is there any reason that the interior trim would even have to be touched if we ...
