That screen is in a track which are very common for triple track storm windows in the north.

I had okna 800 series installed last year and so far it has been excellent for north east winter but Jeff is correct that it is very bulky. The windows are great functionally but the bulkiness of the design decreases a lot of glass space and not as aesthetically pleasing as other brands. At first i liked the look of the frame design but i think i would have preferred something simpler if it means having more glass.

Also at the 11:15 mark, Jeff notices that the locks dont always line up when you close the window. I noticed that as well on mine when i first got it but i realized that when you close the bottom, the top window might actually slip down very slightly and cause a mal-alignment of the sash lock. All you have to do is make sure the top AND bottom windows are completely pushed closed (top all the way up, bottom all the way down) so they are aligned correctly when locking the window (a bit tedious but a very minor design flaw). I'm not exactly sure why the top half comes down a little when i close the bottom, could be due to the magnetic seal causing a little shift and pulling down? Either way, still very good quality vinyl window for a reasonable price.

Overall i am happy that my home is warmer and the windows are definitely top quality and great on their features.

Was torn between Anlin and Okna. Went Anlin, it had almost all positive reviews online vs mixed reviews on Okna. A lot is on the installers but a few of the negative after care support reviews on Okna got to me.

That screen is old school storm window - I grew up with them but they were aluminum back in the day.

Would you know the ingredients of the vinyl? Does it have Titanium Dioxide and tin in large amount? What is the quality of the foam inside ?

If you had a choice between the Okna 500 and 600 series, which would you pick? The higher series is supposed to be "better" but when I looked at the numbers the 500 has has better U-factor and SHGC. The sales guy for the 500 said it's because the 600 has that extra support bar in the sash so they can't put insulation in that part, which makes it lose U-factor value. I liked the idea of the extra support bar but I ended up going with the 500 due to better numbers. For 500 it was U 0.26 and SGHC 0.27. For 600 it was U 0.27 and SHGC 0.29.

Do you know of any installers of Okna windows in the Twin Cities? I'm close to deciding on Provia Endure windows.

Hi Jeff, Im in the proces of replacing my windows in CT. I have watched all your videos and am about to go for Infinity. I have also heard about OKNA Starmark. What are your thoughts on this? Anything better than Infinity within the same price range?

Hey Jeff, what are your thoughts on Wincore 5400 versus Okna brand.

Great review. Wondering if you plan on reviewing anything from ORIDOW windows out of China?

I’m getting new atrium 8300 series. Is that a good window?
