Would Not RecommendLowes was days late on their "same day delivery", delivered damaged, and refused to assist me on multiple attempts to get a refund. Not cool!

Defective Trex
Would Not RecommendThe product was warped on each end causing a dip in the deck once installed. When I took a piece back to Lowe’s they took no responsibility and even insulted my intelligence by suggesting it was an installation issue, when the piece I brought back obviously wasn’t installed! Very disappointed! This is the second time I’ve had issues with Lowe’s and this particular store manager.

Check it out carefully and have lots of furniture
Would Not RecommendMoved to house with existing large deck that needed new top boards as the pt 1x6 's were in bad shape and planned to use the Trex grey boards to replace. Checking Trex website for info they claimed joists I had on 16" centers were fine for residential and 12" joist centers for commercial. Well it looked great until the first hot summer day and this is only in PA ,my deck looks like the ocean with all the waves in it and if any joists are not perfectly level and I mean" PERFECT" it only magnifies...

Good looking deck boards
Would RecommendGreat looking boards. My deck was right at 20' long, thankfully I did a picture frame boarder around the edges. If I did not and I planned on using just one board across, they wouldn't have worked. The first 4-6 inches on each side of the board were warped up and were beyond saving. But I didn't need those 4-6 inches on each side, so they worked great for what I did. Temperature sitting in the sun is not nice on the skin. These were the cheaper options of composite decking so them having the a...

Did not receive order
Order was not delivered due to an alleged broken forklift that leaks fluid. Why not bring spill absorber that is sold in the store.

Nice boards, curled ends.
Nice boards, but the ends curled up prior to being installed. We had to cut maybe 18” off each end to get them to lay flat. That’s a lot of waste. Good thing we ordered enough extra to deal with the ends curling. The shorter length boards may be better.

Too hot for Texas heat!
Would Not RecommendThese deck boards are awesome EXCEPT they get soooo hot. Hotter than concrete. I like to walk out on my deck barefoot but you can't with these! Even around the pool you have to wear your shoes. They install easily enough and they are always pretty to look at but boy are they Caliente!
