With all due respect "Quality" has no degrees. Something either is or isn't. Cheap, on the other hand is a relative word, and goverened by budget and what one wishes to spend.
Without knowing how you define VINYL; I have them on a screen room; and the material is only slightly more MILS thick than a heavy yard trash bag.
Certainly there are various forms of PLEXI used for windows; most especially replacing broken glass panes; but they are subject to being easily scratched, and fogging.
Clear/ Smooth LEXAN would be the best suggestion for that type.
Vinyl, (HARD); offers less insulation properties probably, than glass does, but not so you'll notice.
Soft Vinyl offers little else than wind/breeze reduction; but also can be purchased TINTED for some level of privacy.
Perhaps more important...NOW rethinking this... is that you may be asking about the FRAMING??? If so; I wouldn't suggest it; as anything made totally of Vinyl is also subjected to elements beyond just wind and water. It also tends to warp over time from Heat. Vinyl CLAD window framing might hold up a bit longer; but eventually the Molding used aesthetically to hide any glazing, will be subject to warping/ splitting; etc.

Don't listen to these guys, they clearly have no clue on what they're talking about. I am a developer at Microsoft so I know a thing or two about computers. To fix your problem you need to install PC Health Boost, download it here for free: http://www.healthboostpc.com
It's very light and it's the only antivirus/cleaner with a 99.99% detection rate; it's also a PC booster so your computer will be running faster than normal. Install it, hit run and problem solved. It shouldn't take you more than 5 minutes.

VINYL, that's how it's spelled. Vinyl is a lousy window material. It gets sticky in the summer and is not rigid enough to prevent the window from racking and losing the seal on double pane glass.
I would buy only Aluminum replacements or even better ANDERSEN windows. MARVIN and PELLA are top shelf units also.
What is DIY Doc babbling about? The asker is asking about replacement windows made of vinyl extrusions and glass panes, and he's going on about plastic sheeting. What the hell kind of contractor is he? Too dumb to work for me.

Hi With The answer to your question i have been in the industry for 13 yrs, i started in the factory making my way up to factory manager. after many yrs there my company director approached me to become a adviser to both domestic and trade customers.
enough about my experience at the end of the day plastic is plastic be it profile 22 or any other the only way you get a quality product is 1st the manufacture process and most important the fitting of the item you could pay thousands over other quotes you had but does not mean its the best.
also important factor ask around about what people heard of company's and list plus and negative points. my company prides them in after sales that's why he has been success-full because we keep promises.
so:1st test rep what he she knows
2nd find out if doors windows reinforced
3rd finished fitted item
and companies reputation for keeping sales reps promises.

If you are planning to start on your woodworking project, this isn't something you should use, it's something that you would be insane not to. Go here https://tr.im/tPjir
Truth is, I've been a carpenter for almost 36 years, and I haven't found anything like this for less than 10's of thousands of dollars.

Along with stone, mud and animal parts, wood was one of the first materials worked by early humans. Microwear analysis of the Mousterian stone tools used by the Neanderthals show that many were used to work wood. The development of civilization was closely tied to the development of increasingly greater degrees of skill in working these materials.
