I'm thinking about replacing our current slider with a Pella slider with the enclosed blinds. If you have a Pella slider I would appreciate feedback how do you like it is it worth the money?

We didn't have the blinds but we had inserts (mullions) that you put between the glass. I would get a lot of condensation in between the two layers which would drip. Cleaning the doors meant cleaning four surfaces to each side because we had to remove the the clipped on inner panes. Although I loved the feel and look of my Pella door, I didn't put one in my new house because of the reason above. I imagine with the blinds between the panes, you might still get the condensation if it's on a sunny side of the house.

Condensation between glass is only attributed to "seal failure". That is when the seal between both pieces of glass leaks.
With most manufacturers today, that is covered by the warranty. Pella does make a decent, but expensive door. Their windows are less desirable. Be careful if you are working with a contractor. Pella salespeople tend to use confusing terminology with their homeowner customers which is designed to make independent installers seem less educated. |
