Best Bay Windows
Discover our picks for the best bay windows currently on the market. We should say this at the outset, most window manufacturers make bay windows, so choosing the top five is pretty much the same as choosing the best window companies in general.
Nearly all manufacturers buy the basic bay window "box" from companies like Bay World - so the basic framework of bay windows are nearly identical from company to company. (Unless you are doing a custom onsite project.) The window company buys the box and then inserts their windows into the bay box and puts some nice finishing touches on it.
Andersen Bay Windows
Andersen Windows is a well known brand and their 400 wood series is an excellent window. The 200 series is a bit more of their builder grade wood model and their A series is their high end and VERY expensive wood clad window. They also make a composite 100 series that is quite nice, but perhaps a bit pricey for what you get. Our recommendation would be the 400 series woodwright bay window.
Marvin Bay Windows
Marvin Windows & Doors is also a national brand that perhaps more than any other big name on the market, gets consistently good reviews from both homeowners and contractors. They make a wood series called the Ultimate that is expensive, but very nice looking and of high quality. The only other two window models they make are fiberglass windows called the Infinity and the Integrity. The Infinity is the nicer and slightly more expensive of the two, while the Integrity is less expensive and is available in an Ultrex exterior and a real wood interior option.
Sunrise Bay Windows
Sunrise is mostly an East Coast manufacturer that makes several vinyl window series that are always somewhere near the top of installers lists for best manufacturer. Their premium series is the Restorations, while their Vanguard is one step below this. Either one of these, along with the Verde model, would make for excellent bay windows.
Okna Bay Windows
Okna is perhaps the least known company on this list, but enjoys excellent reviews in terms of their vinyl windows. Their 800 series and 500 series are both top notch windows and both available in a bay window. Okna has a division called HiMark Windows that carries the exact same window models and series, but usually are priced a little higher because the installation is done only by certified installers.
Gorell Bay Windows
Gorell was sold several years ago to Soft-Lite, but still markets their windows under their name. They have always had a good reputation for a high quality vinyl bay window. The 5100 series or the higher quality 5300 series is your best bet for getting a high quality product, hopefully at a competitive price.
