Any experiences with either Pella or Softlite sliding patio doors? I'm looking to replace the existing in-swing door with a slider. We really liked both doors, and both had a lot of good features to recommend them. Specific models are the Pella 350 series and Softlite Kingsroyal. The Pella installer was very detailed about how they would install, while the Softlite dealer gave a more generic installed cost. Both would be vinyl-framed argon-filled low-e double glass without blinds or grilles. The specifications for u-factor and condensation resistance are similar. The Pella is quoted about $1000 more than the Softlite installed, although we're expecting the Softlite's price to increase if they encounter any difficulties during installation.
