•   In the first place fiberglass windows are durable. They are do not expand in hot summer days and do not contract in cold winter time. The fiberglass material does not conduct heat or cold. So when it is very hot or cold outside. You can touch the frame of the window inside the house. It is going to be the temperature inside the house, not the outside.
•  Fiberglass windows have  much cleaner look. The frame of the window is much thinner than vinyl windows have. The frame and both sashes have a genuine wood look. So if you have smaller windows in your house you are not going to loose viewing area. Instead you may increase the viewing area. It depends what kind of windows you have in your house. 
•  If  you are tired with your window color you can change it. Although fiberglass windows come in all kinds of colors, still you can paint them. With vinyl windows you get the color for life, it is not paintable. With fiberglass you have that nice freedom of choice.
