Easier and less expensive than building your own. Nail fin seemed a bit flimsy, considering the weight and size of the window, but after proper installation it appears to be fine. The blocks are not all perfectly even, but it's very difficult to tell unless you're looking very closely. I only just installed it, so I can't speak to how well sealed the blocks are, but I don't really foresee a problem. Overall very happy with the product so far.

You Won't Be Disappointed
Needed extra light in bathroom so we decided to install a block window on interior wall of bathroom and utilize the light coming in from laundry room window on other side of wall. My husband didn't use the strips provided but rigged up his own system for installation which didn't take us long to install. We were both surprised how well this block window was made. The window is somewhat heavy but with 2 people installing it's not super difficult. Highly recommend if you're looking for a quick quality unit to install without all the hassle of hiring a tiler.

    Really beautiful window
    The window is very pretty. Its real glass so the price is a great value. We installed it ourselves but man had we had it to do over we would have enlisted a lot more help. It's heavy!!! So for a 57 year old man and a 55 year old woman, it was quite the chore. But, worth it. Great quality window. We still have some trim work to do on it, but here is a photo of it from outside at night.

      Excellent window
      Glass block window purchased for installation in shower. Excellent product - sturdy, well made, silicone glue holding blocks is perfectly uniform. Excellent packaging of window with sturdy styrofoam inserts and sheeting. The one negative is that the window has two warning stickers on the glass surface that CANNOT be peeled off - they need to be scraped off, with the help off "goo-gone" or some other solvent, an unecessary pain in the axx. However, window itself is excellent.

      Easy Install with Help
      Window was a very good choice to add light to a dark shower stall.

      Great Value!
      These windows have been great in replacing old metal drafty one in basements. I use PVC Trim boards and mouldings that will not rot to trim out the windows with a more finished look.

      Great Window Made In the U.S.A.
      This is a well made window that looks great. It is very heavy to lift so get some help to install it.

      exactly what we wanted
      We needed more light in our walk-in shower so after much thought found this window. It is perfect installed in the wall of our shower - looks great and lets in the light we needed. Home Depot shipped if much faster than we expected so that was great. The only problem is, it's very heavy so lifting it overhead was a bit of a challenge for my husband. It also came in a flimsy box for it's weight so it was torn open from the handling of UPS. But, it was packed very well and no damage.

      Very good deal
      While the, "nail up strips" are virtually useless, the window was an easy install using shims to hold it in and a few tubes of high grade, 100% clear silicone as the bonding medium. The customer and every other trade that saw it was very impressed. I couldn't have purchased the block for the price that the window came, complete. I would purchase and happily install this particular product again. It was shipped quick and wrapped in enough bubble wrap to wrap a battleship...

      Exactly as advertised. Note, I should have paid more attention as I thought the glass blocks within my unit would be the same size, however they are two different sizes per row.

      Good quality product. We needed for our shower to fill a spot so we could hang a sliding door. Worked well.

      This window was so easy to install. It looks great in my shower. I had the wall cut out and the window installed in less than an hour and 15 minutes. If you don’t want to be seen from the outside you might want to consider not using their Wave pattern Blocks and use the Snow pattern blocks.

      I was looking for glass blocks to build a small privacy bathroom window when I came across this. I found a suitable size and placed an order for one of them. It arrived in about 10 days, well packed and undamaged, which is always nice!. The nail-up edging makes installation easy. This cost less than the glass blocks, holders, mortar, etc. would have cost. Best of all, it was a real time saver. The quality looks OK and I am happy with my purchase.

      The Home Depot photo of the window didn’t look like what we received. We expected the blocks to be the same size. Otherwise, the window was well made and packed very securely. I would purchase this product again.

      Seems like a great product. I mortared it in and everything seems great so far. It’s only been a week so no big test to it as of yet.
