Re: Okna vs Soft-Lite vs ProVia

Where in WI? 800 is the best of that bunch. Provia is fine, but doesn't belong in the company of the other windows on that list. Waukesha/Milwaukee area. ProVia is my runner-up, but mainly tied between Soft-Lite and Okna. However, different companies quoting the windows, so likely will come down to...

Re: Okna vs Soft-Lite vs ProVia

Welp, the first link is a fake info site made by a lead generation service. Some dated info, and some "click bait" to entice you to give them your info. I assume that you haven't done that otherwise you'd be complaining about getting 20 phone calls a day from the handful of companies that...

Re: Okna vs Soft-Lite vs ProVia

Have you already been quoted those prices? The are a bit lighter than average. Its impossible to research pricing accurately because there are so many variables. I'd definitely source product and install from one company unless you want to deal with the installer and window supplier pointing finger...

Okna vs Soft-Lite vs ProVia

Hi all, Waiting to see how the quotes come out, but after looking at showroom demos, I'm down to what I think are my top 3 finalist windows. I didn't care for the Pella 250 or Sunrise weather stripping. I'm down to: Soft-Lite Imperial Elite Okna 500 or 800 ProVia Endure Curious on thoughts for why o...
