Been There, Done That: That new window feeling

I’m embarrassed to say we’ve had our new windows for 10 months now and I’ve yet to clean them. Literally, the fancy way they tip in so you can clean top and bottom, inside and out, was the reason we chose these windows.

The salesman spent an hour in our kitchen with a sample window explaining what it was made of and why it was superior to all its competitors and all about the financing. Blah, blah, blah — show me how it works. He gave us one quick demonstration and out the door he went. After the installation, I tested out one window to see for myself how it worked and then walked away like it never happened.
