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.
