I'm curious to hear from anyone who has gone through the sales process with Andersen Renewal. Specifically, I'm interested in your experiences during negotiations and how you handled their "sign today" pressure tactic. I was offered a 5% discount but it was only valid for that day, which is something I don't appreciate when making decisions. What strategies did you all use in similar situations?

I've had mixed feelings about them. While the sales tactics are definitely pushy, I do think their windows are high quality. I split my purchases—did half the house one year and the other half later. As a returning customer, I got a slightly better deal the second time around. Just be prepared for the higher price point; it's a tough pill to swallow but I didn’t regret the product itself.
It sounds like a smart move to do half first—better than jumping in all at once!
Honestly, I've heard some pretty bad things about Renewal by Anderson. Unless they're giving you a massive discount, it's tough to say if it's worth it. I've seen better deals elsewhere. Just remember that any pressure tactic should raise a red flag; it's often better to walk away and explore your options instead of getting locked into a high price.
I totally agree! Better to take your time and find something that really fits your needs.
I feel the same—it's so important to take your time with these decisions.
First off, definitely research the market rates for window replacements in your area before negotiating. That way, you can have a solid comparison point. Discounts can sound good, but if their initial price is inflated, even a 5% reduction doesn't mean much. Call a few local installers to get a better sense of what's fair in your area. Also, if you're getting pressured with tricks like the "sign now" nonsense, don't hesitate to toss back a counteroffer. That usually sends them running!
Exactly! I always think it's best to have multiple quotes lined up before even considering a decision.
For sure, always be prepared to walk away if the pressure feels too intense.

Absolutely! You can really gauge quality before going all in again.
