Our Vinylmax Edison Windows Reviews is one of the company's best replacement windows. Only the Vinylmax Newton model is better in terms of performance and standard features. The window includes a fusion-welded frame and sash, triple weatherstripping, extruded lift rails, and a shadow-grooved sash.
As well, the Edison comes with composite cam locks, flush mount tilt latches, a constant force balance, double paned glass, and the Intercept warm-edge spacer. Finally, the window comes standard with an aluminum BetterVue screen, and an optional Neopor upgrade that is a thermal insulation made from foam and graphite particles that improves strength and helps with insulation.
The Vinylmax Edison is available in an interior white, tan, or classic oak laminate. It comes in 7 exterior color options, and 4 grid styles. The Edison or 4600 Series is available as the 4600 double hung, the 4650 slider, or as the 4670 picture window. Consumers can expect .12 AI or air infiltration rating, which is considered decent, but not great. A .28 U-factor is a decent number as well. The Vinylmax Edison Window Series gets a out of 5 star rating.

Consumers should expect the Edison to run run $550 to $750 fully installed. Many factors will determine where on the cost spectrum this series ends up -- these include any and all upgrades, window size, installation requirements, etc. Similarly priced windows include the Vytex Fortex and the Simonton Reflections 5500.
-- Window Itself: $400 to $500 -- *
-- Installation: $150 to $250 per opening --
-- Fully Installed: $550 to $750 --
Consumers can expect a 0.12 AI or air infiltration rating, which is considered decent, but not necessarily top tier. Consumers can also expect a .28 U-factor with the standard low-e glass, which is a decent number. SHGC will clock in at .28 and have .55 visible transmittance. Finally, the Edison will have a .60 condensation resistance. All in all, pretty solid numbers for this super end mid range window.
Vinylmax Windows come with a Limited Lifetime Warranty that lasts as long as the buyer resides in their home. Under their limited lifetime warranty, they cover defects in workmanship and materials.
Theis Warranty is transferrable to another homeowner. The warranty does not cover glass breakage to the best of my knowledge.

John, I redid my bids as follows:
6 sliding vinyl replacement wdws and one sliding door:
1. Zen Nirvana (Soft-lite Classic Plus) $9505
2. Anlin Catalina Windows (Malibu sliding door) $7295
3. Edison $9988
Pella 250 $14,213 Pella 250 Series Reviews
(Haven't been able to find a Sunrise windows dealer/installer in Denver.)
Which is the better option? Best value?
Thank you again!

JT, The Catalina and Anlin Malibu door cost is the best value for the money. No question in my mind. That’s the best price/value of the three. That’s a solid deal!

We're super torn. Have two great options with two good companies, and we really liked both of the guys who came out to the house a lot. Price is roughly equivalent, so taking that out of the equation, do you have a leaning between the Edison vs the Anlin Panoramic sliders? The Vinylmax has a nice feature in that it be swung in to clean both sides of window from inside the house, but that's secondary to us vs. quality and durability. Any tie-breaking leanings one window vs. the other?

Amy, these two series are pretty close in quality I would say. I think I would turn my attention from the product to the actual company doing the work. This is where the difference could be huge.

My house has 19 double hungs that are desperately in need of replacement. I took your advice and got three bids that are...
Okna 500 Series (Deluxe Glass): $8740
MI 4300 Series: $7756
Edison Series: $6560

Ned, I'm not a big fan of MI Windows so I would toss that bid if it were mine. The Edison is a decent window and that is a very competitive price for that window. However, the Okna 500 Deluxe is a fantastic option and the bid you are getting is very good. I would say that the Okna bid is the easy winner that you will be happy with for a long long time. Congrats! You wouldn't believe how many consumers get stuck with mediocre windows for more than you are spending.
