    As someone who has used those multiple times : the heavier the window, the more the power feeling becomes fear

      When it unhinges weirdly and it’s kind of hanging from only one corner? Man, I had a heart attack.

      I do love these, though.

      Indeed, I’ve seen it in most of Europe, just saw the meme in another community and crossposted it

      can you slide you window open, so it’s 100% open, or just like half open?

      After having these windows forever, I can agree that I would prefer sliding in some cases. I think a tilting window that can also slide sideways would be endgame.

        I had a house that had these. The garden door was tilting and sliding, but not swinging. I would have liked all to be rhis way . Swinging steals the space of the swing.
