We were in desperate need of replacement windows. Even through our need was great, I should have kicked the Champion saleman out of my home for the lack of respect he showed towards me and my children. He seemed nice, but his sales presentation was long and took a difficult toll on my small children. When I told him the price was too high, he continued to press...hard. My little ones were tired and fussy, my older children needing my attention, and after two hours, I gave up and decided to sign. After all, we did need the windows and it seemed like the only way to get him out. I was hopeful that maybe things would work out despite the awful experience of a Champion sales presentation. We just had our windows put in and I now realize that hell we endured was a sign to run, not an opportunity to fill our need for safe windows. Our sales man touted the fact that Champion does not use middle men. Imagine my surprise when a truck shows up with a contractor's name and number on the side...and it's not Champion. The contractor proceeds to complain about how far the campground he's staying at is away from my home, how hot it is outside, and then proceeds to ask me odd questions about swimming in my neighbor's pool and if my neighbor wants to sell his trailer (who cares...if you want to know, go ask after the job is done). The crew was weather delayed for 2 hours (even though we did not receive rain, I guess he did where they stayed) and then was 2 hours late beyond the reschedule time. The contactor showed up at the end and told me who and how much for the check, and then left. No walk around or asking if I had questions. The windows look fine from the inside, but when I went outside, it just made me sad to realize how much money I wasted. Champion touted their superiority in quality of installation, but it was a sloppy mess. Overspray on the glass, visible foam spray, bowed siding, all sorts of caulk problems (caulk on the siding, "drippy" ends, and messy, rushed caulking), corners that don't line up, and one window that has an odd fit are the things I found after walking the house. I was angry that Champion used a traveling subcontractor for the windows and even more upset at myself for agreeing to this nonsense. Champion is sending someone out this week to address the issues, but it won't change the fact that the salesman was pushy and inconsiderate, the installation was a nightmare, and I still have to deal with Champion to address the issues that should have never happened. I sincerely hope the sales representative is ashamed of his behavior in my home and re-evaluates his sales tactics as I would not wish that experience on anyone. A complete waste of time and money. Do yourself a favor and find a local company that doesn't rely on ridiculous sales pitches and actually runs it's own installation crew.
