Anderson 100 Series Prices
Anderson 100 Series prices should run approximately $75 to $95 per square foot fully installed. The price you will pay will depend on the glass package, along with the frame color, window size, hardware choices and installation requirements. The Anderson 100 series is a popular choice that uses a fibrex composite frame - comprised of 70% wood and 30% vinyl. According to the manufacturer, the extrusion process results in a frame that is more durable than a standard vinyl frame (some high end vinyl manufacturers would argue with this assertion).

Anderson 100 Window Options
The Anderson 100 window is one of the nicer looking windows on the market, with a more narrow frame that opens up a larger glass area. The window have nice clean corner welds and a matte finish that is visually appealing. Consumers can select Anderson 100 windows in a wide range of frame colors, which allows you to blend the window color to almost any property. The exterior and interior colors are actually baked into the material, ensuring it doesn't chip over time.
In terms of performance, the Anderson 100 series ratings are decent (but not great). With their standard glass package, consumers can expect a U-factor of 0.28, VT of 0.43 and SHGC of 0.19.
Anderson 100 Windows Prices
The Anderson 100 window series should run $60 to $75 per square foot for the window itself. Assuming $50 to $125 per opening for installation, consumers should be looking at roughly $75 to $95 per square foot fully installed. Obviously, this is a ballpark range and what you will actually pay is going to depend on all of the options, upgrades and add ons that you wish to tack on the base model price, as well as how simple or complex the installation.

Anderson 100 vs 400 Series
The 100 Series is a composite fibrex frame, while the Anderson 400 window is an aluminum clad wood window. The 100 and 400 windows are going to be pretty difficult to tell apart from the outside, although up close the aluminum will have a metal sound to it if you were to knock on it. The aluminum cladding and the composite materials should last relatively the same amount of time.
On the inside, the 400 is going to be wood and should, for the price you are paying, look pretty stunning. The 100 looks good from the inside, but it's not going to have that wow factor that real wood does. Of course, the 400 requires a lot more maintenance, specifically staining every five years, which can be quite a task if you have 20 or more windows. The 100 series requires very little maintenance, although it can be painted if you do want to change the look and feel of the home. Finally, the 100 Series will have slightly better performance or energy efficiency than the 400 wood clad - this will be more evident over time.

Anderson 100 vs 200 Series
Most of the same comments from above also apply to the 100 vs 200 series. The Anderson 200 series is relatively similar to the 400 series in so far as the 200 window is an aluminum clad wood window. The Anderson 200 window, however, is their entry level wood window and lacks some of the custom features and fine construction of the 400 series. While not a bad wood window, the 200 series is not an elite top-of-the-line wood window in the eyes of most contractors and industry experts.

Anderson 100 Window Warranty
The Anderson 100 series comes with a 20 year transferable warranty on the insulated glass unit, 10 years on all other components, including the frame, sash, hardware, etc. The warranty is transferable to another owner and the change in ownership must be given to Anderson via their website. Some limitations and exclusions apply so consumers should go read the warranty in full before purchasing.
Andersen 100 Price Quote
I'm looking to replace all the windows in my home, 11 windows and a patio door. I have looked at Andersen 100, Andersen 400, Sunrise and Simonton. The black frame option is limited and unavailable on Simonton.
Andersen 100 - $15,367
Andersen 400 - $20,630
I understand Sunrise Restorations doesn't come in black, however, just Sunrise window do (is there such a thing)?
Do you think the Andersen 100 is a good window?
Thank you.

Sharon, Sunrise vinyl windows are quite good and yes I believe they come in black. This is going to be the better window over the Andersen 400 or 100 in terms of warranty, maintenance, and energy efficiency. The Andersen 100 window is a solid window though with the fibrex composite frame. The 400 clad window is a wood window and it loses to vinyl and composite in most areas, except for aesthetics, obviously.
I'd prefer to have the Sunrise over the Andersen 100, but the Andersen 100 is, like I said, not a bad window at all.
The Sunrise Restorations is btw one of my very favorite windows. I was under the impression that it did come in black exterior and interior. Their website says it does...

Andersen 100 Costs Questions
Hi Bill, I am about to order Andersen 100 series windows for my remodeling project located in South California. I received a quote from Home Depot, and my general contractor got a quote from a vendor. It turns out that HD outbid the vendor for $1,500 (16 windows and 2 patio doors). My GC don’t normally buy supplies from HD cause he said they’re at the bottom of the construction supply. And he worries that the Andersen windows offered by HD might be inferior to the Vendor’s one. I’m writing this email to see how you feel about the buying windows from HD.

[Site Editor's Answer]
Leah, I'm not necessarily surprised by the bid disparity. I've never heard of an Andersen window sold through HD being different in any way than what a dealer would carry. I think you would have to call up HD directly and speak with them about that. They might come with a different glass package, that's the only difference I could think of, but even there I kind of doubt it.
I wish I had something more specific for you, but unfortunately I don't.

Andersen 100 Series Price
Hello, my current windows are old single panes and I'm residing and thought now is a good time to also switch out the windows. I have a few bids, one on an Alliance Wingate, one on a Crestline 250 and one on a Simonton Perfexion. I'd be interested to find out which one you think is the best.
Ann - Homeowner - from 2019
[Site Editor's Answer]
Ann, I'd say the Simonton Perfexion would be my pick. I'm not a huge fan of Alliance or Crestline. Simonton makes a solid enough window.
Bill - Site Editor - from 2019
[Ann's Response]
Thank you so much for the quick response. I did get a quote for the Anderson 100 series as well. It was about $500 more. The drawback was they only come with white frame inside. Is that window that muchbbetter?
Ann - Homeowner - from 2019
[Site Editor's Answer]
The Andersen 100 window is a better window than the Simonton Perfexion Builder model. Well worth the extra $500 in my opinion.

Andersen 100 Window Prices vs. Wincore
I have two quotes on 25 windows. The first is the Wincore 7700 for $8,700 and the next is the Andersen 100 for $12,000. Neither of these includes the installation cost. Would love to hear your opinion here.
Thanks a bunch.
Lance - Homeowner - from 2019
[Site Editor's Answer]
Lance, personally I think the Wincore 7700 is a darn solid vinyl window. The Andersen 100 is a nice composite window, but I'm not sure it's worth the price increase unless you are really into the look of the 100. It is a very nice window. I'd get the installation pricing before you proceed so that you know exactly what you're looking at. Cheers!
