Description:

In our opinion the first acceptable permanent type solution vinyl siding from Owens Corning you can put on your home. Thickness rings it at .044 which is very respectable. Limited to 3 most popular profile options though. Lacking in color darkness and variety by today's standards when this was still in production a very good siding.

Pros

  • Acceptable Thickness at .044
  • Good looking hand sawn embossed wood grain

Cons

  • Lacking depth of color
  • Not enough profile options
