Ours can open all the way either left or right side, or a bit on top (opens inwards on all sides). The way it opens up top is nice to get some circulation going, and is also secure enough to be still covered by insurance in unlikely event someone would break in (appartment is on the first floor, but somewhat elevated. Bottom of the windows are about 2m from the ground).
We also have a mesh on the outsite of the frame to prevent insects from flying in regardless of which way they open.
