Window profile system advice

Hi,
Wonder if anyone here has any experience in the area of picking a double glazing installer, based upon the quality of the profile supplier they buy from.
I've had 3 quotes from local companies.
One uses Selecta Profile 70, they came in at £3300.
2nd quote was from someone that uses EuroCell, that was slightly cheaper at £3100.
3rd Quote was supplied using Profile 22. But they come in at around £5400.
These are all without a quote for a composite door, so it's just purely windows on a like for like basis.
I really liked the last guy, but that's quite a sizeable difference in price.
Thoughts on the manufacturers?

I was leaning towards that anyway. The windows I have in at the moment are reaching on for 22 years old. One of them is made with Profile 22 and it has faired much better compared to the others that I can't find the label for but are clearly different.
I have had a better quote from another Profile 22 installer at £4700. But actually I've realised that I don't need so many windows with opening. I could probably save £300-400 by changing the design. I think if I could wiggle down to £4k I would be happy with that
Thanks for the advice.0
