i’m looking at metal clad,casement windows.my first inclination is go with anderson,but standing in the store the jeld-wen /caradco’s look pretty good and actually work as smooth as the andersons.so i was about to take the leap’and then i find out that pozzi,cradco,and jeld wen are the same.pozzi windows were falling out around here in about 5 years,but weren’t clad just wood.the cost is a little consideration,the andersons cost 300.00 bucks more for 6 windows.any opinons on this?thanks larry

I sold Caradco's twenty years ago.
I sell Andersens today.
There is no comparison.

my house full of 1984 casement caradcos-
many have had the panes cloud up.
all are impossible to open - the "truth" brand hardware has no mechanical advantage to open the window. you have to get it started by hand.
