These can differ from 58mm profiles to 65mm and 70mm. As a general rule stay away from anything that is below 65mm. Above 65mm you have some people tell you that 70mm is better for a whole variety of reasons, however there is only ONE major advantage to 70mm frames, when you replace old wooden windows, 70mm hides the paint lines, 65mm windows will need trimming up. All other aspects of 65mm and 70mm 3 or 5 chamber system are the same, Security, energy efficiancy etc.

Remember that although the is difference in performance between 65 & 70mm a meter of raw profile
All PVC windows are manufactured from extruded profile. I am not going to tell you which extruded make the best windows because that is not the case. Remember that the profile is only one aspect of the overall finished window and a good profile put together badly is worse than a bad profile make well.
Also remember that the route to market for some of these products can take on many different paths it could be, like Anglian extrude their own profile, fabricate their own windows and Install, however it could also go from an extruded to another fabrication to a trade depot to a local builder.
Some profile manufactures produce more than 1 profile so be careful you may have heard good things about a particular extruder not a particular product e.g. the difference between a Ford Fiesta and Mondeo, entirely different products one manufacturer.
only cost £3 - £4 a meter and a 65mm only saves about 30p a meter but it is usually a sign that the locking system and other components are also lower quality.
Below I have listed the major profile extrudes that sell in the UK for you to decide who makes the best window.
Rehau have a very good name among window fitters and is a very good window system, however be careful with the single leg knock in bead, great for fitter not as secure or as energy efficient as a double leg bead
Edge 70mm - - Fully sculptured profile and beneficial 70mm
Tritec 60mm - Cheaper product not as desirable as the edge.
