Sunrise Windows vs Andersen - let's compare and contract these window brands and see which is the winner in our head-to-head match ups. My company summations are as follows.

Sunrise Windows And Doors - Sunrise makes a handful of high quality vinyl windows, including the Essentials, Classic, Verde, Vanguard, and Restorations. The company recently sold to MI (2021) however, this has not affected the quality of their products. Now that the company is part of MI, their series are known as the V4500 for instance for the Restorations. It’s a little bit confusing, but at least they have kept their lineup roughly the same.

Reputation - Sunrise has a very good reputation for vinyl windows and doors. They may not be well known, but they manufacturer quality products.

Andersen Windows And Doors - Anderson is quite possibly the best known brand in the fenestration industry. The company is Minnesota based and has been an existence for over 100 years. The company concentrates on quality over having lots of products to market their customers. The company makes the 100 series, 200 series, 400 series, and Architectural series. The 100 is a composite frame that uses the same fibrex material that can be found on the Renewal by Anderson. All of their other series - 200, 400, and A series - are wood clad windows.

Reputation - Anderson enjoy a very good reputation for their wood clad windows and doors. While Anderson is a very reputable brand, they are also quite expensive.
