Good: I like the Penguin sign and catchy commercials on TV. Not much, if anything. I would VOTE zero or -1 stars if possible.. Bad: I see the company as having a serious lack of integrity and I would NEVER suggest my worst enemy buy anything from Penguin.. Improvements: HONESTY, FAIR PRICES, INTEGRITY. REDUCTION OF GREED .....l.. Other: I worked at Penguin recently. In 2 days of training, it was OBVIOUS that my idea of INTEGRITY and Penguin's were solar systems apart. It would a chance to make a lot of money in hard economic times, I am so broke right now and I am receiving food stamps to survive. Yet, I could NOT and would NOT lie, cheat and bs customers out of money. I am in need, but I refused to adhere to Penguin's dishonest, and corrupt ways of doing business..

1 hour energy demo lasted almost 4 hours and wanted $68,000 (yes really 1/3 the purchase price of the house) to replace all the windows in the whole house. After telling him to get out several high pressure sales specials came up, still ended up throwing them out with great difficulty. Stay away from from Pengiun

Good: Love the windows you can tell the difference not only with the heating bill, but also you don't feel the cold coming through them.. Bad: We had our windows installed in July of 09 and let them know of a flaw in the slider and that one of the windows we are unable to close all the way and lock now the stripping in coming off another window and still nobody will respond to us they say someone will call you in with in 72 hours, but no one calls us to make arrangement to get these items fixed not happy at all if this is how you treat your valued customers then we will not get the rest of our window replaced!!! NOT HAPPY!!!. Improvements: If you say you are going to call your customer back then do it! get things fixed don't make the customer wait 6 mo or longer we are not pleased with how we are being treated.. Other: We have no problem informing the BBB about the quality of service and how once you get your money nothing gets fixed and very poor customer service!.

We ordered two sets of windows ( five windows each ) back when company was Statewide and they were very professional and thorough in their presentation and installation. Have enjoyed a considerable savings in heating expenses and also rebates at tax time the year we installed. The second set of windows were slightly off measurement wise but ths was caught by the installation guys and brought to our attention promptly. Since they pried they themselves on having EXACT measurements before the windows are made , they made every effort to make temp adjustments until the replacements were ready and came back AHEAD of the proposed date to correct the minor adjustment ( ie we couldn't even tell the difference right away until they showed us and very easily could have let it slide if they were less than honest. ) The attention to detail they displayed was above and beyond what most companies would voluntarily give, and we are considering our next set of windows soon. Hoping that the reviews here are not indicative of the switch to PENGUIN as a change in business practices, but now wondering and will be very inquisitive with our next representative.

THESE ARE THE REAL FACTS OF PENGUIN WINDOWS. STARTED IN 1979 AS STATEWIDE WINDOWS / STATEWIDE INC./ STATEWIDE ENERGY / STATEWIDE ENERGY SYSTEMS. THEY HAVE OFFICES IN LAKEWOOD, MUKILTEO AND VANCOUVER WASHINGTON. THEY NOW OPERATE AS PENGUIN WINDOWS AND HAVE AN OFFICE IN DANVERS MASS. THEY CURRENTLY HAVE A B.B.B. RATING OF B. THEY CURRENTLY SHOW 49 COMPLAINT AGAINST "'PENGUIN WINDOWS" OUT OF THAT 32 ACCORDING TO THE COMPANY WAS RESOLVED, HOWEVER, THE CUSTOMER WOULD NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THAT FACT. BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THIS COMPANY SELLS A WINDOW PRODUCED BY GREAT LAKES WINDOW. THEY HAVE A DEAL WITH THEM TO SELL IT AS A PENGUIN WINDOW. PENGUIN WINDOW DOES NOT PRODUCE THERE OWN PRODUCT. THEY CHANGED COMPANY NAMES DO TO THERE EVER GROWING REPUTATION AS HIGH PRESSURE SALES PEOPLE. THEY DO A WATER BOIL DEMONSTRATION THAT WALKS A VERY FINE LINE OF DECEPTIVE BUISNESS TACTICS AND A HEAT LAMP DEMONSTRATION THAT IS TRULY BOGUS. THERE TEMPERATURE GUNS ARE LOW END THAT YOU CAN PURCHASED AT AND HARDWARE STORE AND THEY A REALY JUST FOR EFFECT. THEY PURPOSE LIE ABOUT THE LENGTH OF TIME FOR THERE SALES PITCH JUST TO GAIN ENTRY. THEY WILL ALSO TELL YOU HOW ALMOST EVERY WINDOW SEAL YOU HAVE EITHER HAS OR IS GOING TO FAIL. NOW YOU ASK HOW DO I KNOW ALL OF THIS. AS A LICENSED CONTRACTOR I HAD TO DEAL WITH A CUSTOMER WHO WAS ALMOST BROW BEAT TO BUY THERE WINDOWS. SO I MANAGES TO GET AN INTERVIEW AND WAS HIRED FOR THERE SALES STAFF. I WENT THROUGH AN EXTENSIVE TWO WEEK TRAINDING COURSE BY THERE TOP SALES PEOPLE FROM WASHINGTON STATE. WE WERE EVEN INSTRUCTED TO REMIND SENIORS OF REVERSE MORTGAGES TO PAY FOR THERE WINDOWS. I QUIT AFTER THE TRAINING WAS OVER A DELIVERED A RATHER NASTY MESSAGE TO THEM ON HOW I FELT ABOUT THERE SALES TACTICS AND WARRANTY THAT IS NOT WORTH THE PAPER IT IS WRITTEN ON. I NOW TRY TO EDUCATE ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN ABOUT THIS COMPANY. I HAVE MANAGED TO KEEP MY SMALL CONSTRUCTION BUISNESS GOING THROUGH THESE TOUGH TIMES BY BEING A PERSON OF INTEGRITY. THIS COMPANY MANAGES TO STAY IN BUISNESS BY ARRANGING REVERSE MORTGAGES.

The quality of Penguin windows does not justify the expense. It would take more than 20 years in energy savings to recoup the cost. I installed Milgard a few years ago for less than half of what Penguin was going to charge. Absolutely no problem with Milgard windows and I have several very, very large windows. If you have lots of $$ and don't know what to do with it, by all means go with Penguin.

Penguin has called our family emergency phone number three times a day for two weeks. This phone number is never given out or used for any reason apart from medical emergencies. After six requests, Penguin refuses to stop calling at times such as 6am. Penguin ignores the donotcall registry and ftc complaints. We must now involve the WA state attorney general to stop the calls.

I signed Contract based on presentation. But contract is in collision with presentation: does not have even close warranties they promised, allow them to hire subcontractor. Sales person present BBB rating as A, actually it is B. I believe that windows are good quality but I am not buying from dishonest people. When called to inform of canceling sales person was rude.
