SAGGY
Would RecommendTrex recommended 16" OC for my deck. This material sags with time. If you are going to use it, I strongly recommend 10" to 12" OC. You will like it better when it doesn't sag after 10 years of use. Otherwise, I appreciate the colorfastness.

Buy extra fasteners.A lot snap during installation
I had to think about a 3 or 4 star. Ultimately, 4 is the fair rating because the Trex decking itself is exactly what I wanted and I know it will outlast me. It looks great and was easy to install. My problem is with the Trex universal fasteners. They are cheap trash. Approximately 20% of the fasteners snapped while screwing them in meaning I had to choose between unscrewing the fasteners that worked and starting that row over or just leaving useless fasteners in the deck building only one o...

Delivered Broken
Would Not RecommendI ordered Trex decking at 16' foot length, to much to carry on my truck so I paid extra for delivery. Of the 19 boards I ordered I found 5 that were not damaged. It appears that they send every board that other customers rejected. Trex is supposed to be different that lumber. The boards were stained, multiple various unknown stains; damaged and broken by likely a forklift Terrible all the way around. I hope they will make it right. I am waiting on a call.
