Product Recall: Window opening control devices sold as kits or installed on 100 Series casement windows

Our Take

→Andersen Corporation's recall of opening control devices on its 100 Series casement windows highlights a persistent quality challenge for the Wisconsin manufacturer in an increasingly competitive replacement window market. The company has faced multiple safety-related recalls over the past five years, suggesting either manufacturing consistency issues or design validation gaps that competitors like Pella and Marvin have largely avoided. For a brand built on heritage and reliability, repeated hardware failures erode the premium pricing that justifies Andersen's market position against cheaper vinyl alternatives.
