Marvin Ultimate Push Out Casement

Last year, we were impressed with Marvin's Ultimate Replacement Casement and it looks like now they've released another window in the line, this time, it's the Ultimate Push Out Casement.

It appears to have the same innovative 'flip around' functionality as the Replacement Casement, making it a snap to clean, but with this window, Marvin has removed the crank hardware and made it so you simply push it open and lock it into position with a sash limiter. Not having the crank handle is a nice option and there's no question it cleans up the aesthetic of the window sill. But the lack of crank and the manual operation poses a problem for having screens, which Marvin gets around by making the screen swing inward with a little knob.

This looks like a nice addition to an innovative line of windows from Marvin.
