Best Affordable Window Replacements
Find affordable window replacement options on the market. Get brand names, series, and target pricing. Affordable does NOT mean cheaply made. Instead, we are shooting for an affordable window replacement option that still provides long term value.
Please be aware that buying an affordable window and expecting it to last requires high quality installation. If you're getting away with an okay window - you must have great installation - and this takes some time and multiple window bids to find a company that offers both.
Below you will find five of my top picks in this category. Scroll down below this and you will find homeowner quotes from the most recent year and years past. Enjoy!

Affordable Window Replacement | Ideal Professional
The Professional series is considered their lower end option, but this is a good vinyl window. It is available in a double hung, picture window, slider, casement, bow, bay, hopper and awning. For the double hung with the Energy smart glass package, consumers can expect 0.30 U-factor, D30 and a 0.28 SHGC.
Target Price Installed: $500

Affordable Window Replacement | Okna 400
Anything from Okna is a good window, their 400 Series is their very basic window, but is one of the best of the bunch here. You aren't going to realistically be able to get this installed for the $350 - think more like $400, which would be a deal.
Target Price Installed: $550

Affordable Window Replacement | Sunrise Essentials
The essentials is the Sunrise entry level window, although you would probably be hard pressed to get this window in this price range - probably more like $600 with no upgrades (this would be a great price, assuming the installer was reputable). The company is well regarded and makes some of the best vinyl windows on the market.
Target Price Installed: $600

Affordable Window Replacement | Alside Mezzo
The Alside Mezzo is the most popular Alside series by far - I would say I hear about this series 90% of the time when it's an Alside bid. I would give the Mezzo a 7.0 out of 10. A good mid range window to be sure.
Target Price Installed: $500

Affordable Window Replacement | Simonton Asure
Simonton makes good solid windows and their entry level window is the Asure. It has thin lines and gets good marks from many installers. To get in at the $500 installed price, you won't be able to do any upgrades on glass or hardware but you will have a solid replacement window ratings and a solid company behind it.
Target Price Installed: $500
