MI Windows Costs And Quotes

Explore MI window costs and prices from past homeowners and consumers who have used their series. MI is a large window manufacturer who sells lots of windows to builders and large contractors. MI isn't typically thought of as a high end vinyl window manufacturer, but instead as a builder grade manufacturer.

Their higher end windows, the Energy Core Series, offer more energy efficiency to consumers, and this is probably what I would recommend for consumers who want to maximize their long term value from their home windows. I wouldn't necessarily recommend their lower end or mid range vinyl windows for most projects.

MI 1650 Window Bid

I recently replaced 14 double hung from Window Nation for $7500. We've have issues with them though and I haven't loved Window Nations customer service. So for my next phase I went with Window Universe who replaced 14 windows with MI 1650 -- that was the same price $7400.

Their customer service was good, but the windows seem like they aren't very high quality. They are boxy and don't match the style of the others. Any advise?

Dylan, Window Nation can be a good outfit, but their different branches can offer differing degrees of customer service. I'd probably prefer what they sell to most of what MI sells. MI makes a decent window in their Energy Core series, but the rest of it I could do without. Matching different styles is tricky though. Maybe go back to Window Universe and tell them you want a step up window and see if the hardware matches at all. If they sell an upgraded MI window, the hardware should match. This would be my first step.

MI 1650 Series Pricing

I'm in the process of doing a whole house redo -- roofing, windows, gutters and doors.My contractor suggested going with MI 1650 windows, but it doesn't seem like you think these are the best windows out there. I asked him to find a couple of other options and he suggested the Provia Aspect series and the Simonton 5500 series. The MI 1650 series came in at $20000 for 41 windows, some of which are half rounds and some are transoms. A few bigger ones, but most of them are average sized. The ProVia came in at $23,500 and the Simontons came in at $22,250. Was curious what you thought of the options.

Christopher, the MI 1650 window is not nearly as good a window as the Provia Aspect series or the Simonton 5500 series. If it were me, I would go with either one of these for the extra couple of thousand dollars. They are definitely going to pay off in the long run in my opinion.

MI 1615 Series vs PT 5410 Sliding Doors

We are set to replace 2 sliding glass doors and 14 windows and our Florida home. We have two quotes so far and I'm trying to get a sense of what my best option is. I'd love to know which you think is the better option.

1st Bid: CWS Aria sliders and MI 1615 sliding doors: $10,375

2nd Bid: PGT 5410 sliders and PGT sliding doors: $11,650

Jennifer, I like CWS as a brand of windows, but I'm really not a huge fan of MI windows. They are a good sized company, but they concentrate on builder quality windows, which is not a good recipe for long term value. The PGT window and slider bid is the better of the two as PGT makes good windows and patio doors. It is absolutely worth the extra cost in my opinion.
