I was asked this week, "Which storm door is better, Larson or Pella?" To be honest, the acknowledge lies in what you are looking for. If you want a fullview door, that is where you have a full pane of glass that you can take out and replace with a full screen, then I would say go for the Pella opt or Ashford model instead of the Larson Signature series model. The intuit is simple: the glass is held in place best and tighter on the Pella than on the Larson.
Pella Selects and Ashfords have their glass held in by four (4) plastic retaining strips; all the way colse to the window. Larson, on the other hand, only has two (2) retaining strips; just on the vertical. Over time, the glass and screen tend to work their way loose, then rattle back and forth in the frame. This doesn't happen with the Pella. Now if you want a roll screen, the story is different.

A rollscreen storm door is where the top window can be moved up-and-down and the screen is attached to it. Thus, when you pull the top window down, the screen is revealed. When you move the top window back up, the screen is self-storing and rolls back up onto a tensioned dowel, thus becoming "invisible.
Larson's version is called a Tradewinds; Pella's version is called a Montgomery. The Larson door is made of thicker metal, development it more rigid and stronger than the Montgomery. It also has more weatherstripping on it to keep out drafts. The Pella, though, has a smaller metal frame but larger windows.
