Are you thinking of installing just inserts or the whole window frame? And are these a double hung window or something else like an awning or casement? I have replaced maybe a hundred windows with inserts. American Craftsman is the brand I'm most familiar with - available from Home Despot. You remove the inner stops, parting stops and sashes then tip the new insert into place. Then caulk inside and out as required and reinstall the inner stops. They are Very easy to install and work great. IMO they are the best bang for your buck. They run under $200 for most sizes including special order. Second best bank for your buck is an Anderson insert. They are more attractive then the plain white vinyl American Craftsman but install the same way. They are not a double hung insert but rather a single hung; ie, the upper sash is stationary so only the bottom opens which is fine in most applications. If you are thinking about replacing the entire window - where you take out the old frame, brick molding, and inner trim then I too would go with a good aluminum clad unit. If you go that way then you will have to deal with the outer trim where it meets the siding and the inner trim. For inserts his estimate is a bit high for the unit but his estimate of $25 per insert is a bit low. I can do one in about 15-20 minutes plus haul away the old window. I generally estimate the install at about $50. Reminds me I have about 8 of them to do before fall. Got to get over to the customer's house and get them measured up and on order.

Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
