I am not sure what to do. I should have bought windows with the grills between the glass but with an upscale house, I wanted to purchase windows of fine quality and appearance.
I don't understand why Marvin did not resolve this problem years ago. I can't imagine that they would not have noticed this in their initial project testing of the M. What a shame that something as minor as grills can hamper the value and reputation of a window.
The next time I build a house I will not purchase the M. I have seen other companies with grills that do not easily break. I am not sure if this is the proper site to leave this comment so I will leave it everywhere on the internet that I can.
I want to spare consumers the great disappointment in Marvin Integrity windows with grills that I have experienced. I had both types of Integrity windows: wood ultrex in the main house and all ultrex in our garage.
It is happening on both types of windows. Yes, it is a manufacturing finish defect. There are much better choices out there! Why buy a problem??? Currently in the process of building a modern farmhouse and am looking to do black on black windows. Been doing a ton of research. Andersen series, A Series and Marvin Integrity were all suggested.
We were really leaning towards the Marvin Integrity because they're supposed to be top of the line and achieve the look we are going for the best, however these reviews are freaking me out. I see the thread was from , i plan on ordering my windows within the next few weeks. The Andersen and other models for that matter are quite good and will serve you more than fine if you have hesitation about the Marvin line up. I would only say that Marvin has acknowledged the issue and made the apparent formulaic changes to the finishing process to eliminate this type of failure.
It also appears that they did stand behind the product and own responsibility of it and cost of the repairs. I think that is all you can ask from any supplier at the end of the day when issues do happen. Marvin Integrity window hardware. Do you like the Marvin window integrated shades?
Plantation Shutters for Marvin Integrity Windows. That is an unforgivable trust broken in my mind! In my other home, I have Andersen windows which have been beautiful and problem free!
I have a bunch of Andersen windows in my previous home that all rotted out on the sill edges. This happened because the sill edges are both untreated and unclad. Something the Andersen also knew about and has acknowledged via their warranty personnel. I went to my local lumber store and he brought up the issue to the Marvin rep and neither of them knew anything about it.
One thing I found with the companies I looked at and was taken back by is regarding the black on black option Seems like a no brainer yet no one has done it. Some say just paint it but I've read by many that that is a horrible idea. It looks like the top runners are Andersen A Series, Marvin Integrity and now upon research the Pella Impervia offers a black on black option. Any feed back on those? I'm waiting on my quotes for both. I have a feeling the A Series quote is going to be high with the impression i got.
Certainly not going to skimp on something as important as windows but also don't want to go over budget so early on I was ready to use Marvin windows until I ran across this thread. I chose Anderson E-series instead and am very glad that I did.
Black absords heat more readily than lighter colors. Somewhere along the line they have had issues as well, all manufacturers have. My anderson e series woth doors just came in at 77k.
I need to look at number if windows and doors on new home. It is sf but thi is higher than any other bid thus far. Building a new coastal home in North Carolina so I hope folks are still following this thread. The Florida brands are harder to come by. Have friends who had a Pella nightmare so not going there. I am resisting aluminum as I just don't believe the paint will survive eventual pitting from salt spray. Anderson issue is that it is a clad wood product. Wood rots. Vinyl cladding getting pounded by the sun for years fails.
So rot. Marvin issue is exterior color failure. Can you beat this by going with a white window? Is the entire exterior then one unified piece of white fiberglass that can't delaminate?
Looking at the catalog, the colored layer of the fiberglass looks so thick and delicious. It looks much thicker than what has peeled off on the windows above. Put on 20 marvin top of line aluminum clad outside in Baltimore md area. I spent much time looking at all of the issues and finally decided that top marvin was worth the cost given the labor and aggravation.
Also — Since one has to see and use the windows regularly, its much better to be happy with the product imho. Good luck and recommemd Using a good installer —. A great alternative to any of the above mentioned windows would be Beechworth www. Fiberglass window with a wood clad interior. Removable grids, Grids between the glass and simulated divided lights are all options they offer. As an installer for over 25 years I have installed just about every brand of window available in our area and have chosen to become a Beechworth Dealer after first seeing the window and discussing with other dealers across the country.

You would be first ever to install every brand of window. I will consider all your post either biased, boasting or untrue.
I would not recommend Marvin Integrity Windows to anyone. We've had them a little over ten years, so they are out of warranty, but numerous window Sashes will not stay up due to problems with the balance tubes. From things I've read, this seems to be a problem the company is aware of. Had a dealer come out three months ago about ordering new balance tubes, but after numerous emails, they've apparently dropped the ball and lost all paperwork and information.
It's really frustrating because some of the windows that no longer function properly have seldom been opened or used. Sad to think I'm 60 years old and I've lived in numerous houses with inexpensive vinyl Windows, which never had a problem, but picked Marvin Integrity when building our "Forever Home", and now have numerous Windows that don't function properly! My house is still under construction, but had the Andersen A series black on black double hung avoided doing all casement because I thought we would run into mechanical issues with the cranks down the road installed months ago and so far we are very happy with the outcome.

Started on kitchen instead, much cheaper : Since this room is connected to my kitchen and the new backsplash has rust, cream and gray tones, I am going to go with rust accents and maybe throw some blue into it!

I agree with Sofaspud. One should not have to be an amateur geologist to pick out a slab. People that assist you in picking out a slab, however, should be knowledgeable and helpful. They should be the ones to advise customers on the ins and outs of the various choices. They should know more than their customers, not less.
I can't think of any other consumer experience where the burden of a complex decision rests so much on the customer, with some sales reps either adding little in the way of helpful info, or in some cases adding unhelpful and incorrect info. When you buy a car, is it up to you to know the complexities of how it works? You expect the salesperson to help you navigate that. The stone industry should work the same way. In many cases it does; in many cases it does not. The slab is sold, but the customer is taken care of.
A customer should not have to figure this out all on their own. Buyer beware, sure. Marvin windows are usually more expensive than Pella windows, simply because of the quality of the materials used in the construction of their windows.
However, Pella offers an incredible amount of options and customizable features for consumers. Marvin windows fall into the high price range, but keep in mind you are getting the highest-quality wood window on the market. The line features a wood interior with extruded aluminum cladding, effectively offering the best of both worlds for any new build.
