What Customers Are Saying
The Trex composite decking is a durable and low-maintenance option compared to traditional wood. Customers report the product is easy to work with and available in a variety of attractive colors. However, some issues have been noted with the condition of the boards upon delivery, including scratches, dents, and warping. The decking may also be prone to scratching and staining, and some feel it is overpriced for the quality. Overall, the Trex composite decking can be a worthwhile investment, but customers should be aware of potential quality control concerns.
Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.Floor boards warped
The boards were warped from the shelf braces not being level. Caused the boards to curl up on the ends that made installation difficult. Talked to associate on next trip and they were going to fix shelving.
