Vista Windows Prices
Vista Windows was founded in 2001 and is headquartered in Lordstown, Ohio. The company makes a single line of vinyl windows and patio doors, which are called the Panorama. Generally, the Panorama line is considered right at the top end of the mid range of vinyl windows. So, not quite the top tier like an Okna 800 window or the Sunrise Restorations series, but still a very good vinyl window unit. Explore more on Vista windows prices.
In general, the company has a reputation as a solid manufacturer. Not the best out there, but very solid in my opinion. I think if the price is right and the installation is good, Vista is a nice option for many consumers.

Vista Windows Cost
Vista windows makes only one line of vinyl window, the Panorama, which will typically cost a 3 out of 5 when compared with all vinyl windows. Of course, the actual price you pay will depend on the local window dealer that gives you the bid.
This is the reason why we suggest you always get 3 to 5 local price quotes - to better compare prices (and hopefully save some hard earned money).
Comparable manufacturers to Vista windows include Wincore and Paradigm.
Window Ratings
According to the NFRC website, the Vista Panorama window offers these performance numbers (they assume argon fills and a standard low-e glass); .29 U-value, .29 SHGC, 57 Condensation Resistance, .43 Visible Transmittance), and a .20 Air Infiltration. All of these numbers are quite decent, exception for the AI, which is quite high and honestly one of the most important numbers to look at.
Consumers who upgrade to a better glass can expect these numbers to improve to a .23 U-value, 67 CR, .16 SHGC, and .23 VT. As well, the upgrade will lower the AI to perhaps the .15 range, which is still considered higher than we would prefer.
Warranty Details
Vista vinyl windows comes with a limited lifetime warranty that covers the vinyl frame, sash, all working parts, insulated glass unit, glass coatings, woodgrain laminated surfaces, exterior paint, and any applicable glass breakage provision. The warranty is transferrable to a second owner, although the warranty is then good for 25 years from the date of purchase. The transfer requires that the Vista transfer card is filled out and mailed to the company to notify them of the change.
Consumers who want to make a claim must go through the dealer or local company that installed the windows. All in all, good warranty terms. I haven't heard much about how the company handles their warranty claims so I can't speak to whether they are good or bad in this regard.

Vista Windows Prices
Curious what you thought of the following two bid prices, which is kinda what we've narrowed our choices down to. Vista Panorama for $11.2K and Anlin Del Mar for $15.8K. We have 13 windows and one patio slider to replace if that information is relevant.

Jarrod, the Anlin Del Mar is the better of the two windows for sure. Not by a massive amount, but it's the better overall window. But the price difference between these two bids is pretty huge. I might answer your question like this: if you are going to be living in the home for 15 years or more, then go with the Del Mar. Less than 15 and go with the Vista option. I think that's the time make-or-break limit for me.
