What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the composite decking for its realistic wood-like appearance, exceptional durability, and minimal maintenance requirements. Reviewers consistently highlight the rich, detailed wood grain in colors like Spiced Rum and Island Mist, noting the boards look indistinguishable from natural wood. Many emphasize the heavy, dense construction resists warping and splintering, with some reporting decks remaining vibrant after eight years. The recycled material requires no staining or sealing, and grooved edges work seamlessly with hidden fastener systems. A few customers report occasional warped boards upon arrival or note the surface becomes slippery when wet, though most remain highly satisfied overall.

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the color and texture of the product. It looks and feels like wood. I scratched it with the scissors and it does scratch but the color is the same all the way through, so no big deal. It sheds water very well. Would love to replace the treated wood on my front porch with this. But one thing I would need to consider is the very heavy weight of the product and whether the existing joists under my porch would support it adequately.

Durable deck board
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This deck board is durable. They are also weather proof. They feel pretty good on your feet when you step on it not very hard like I thought it would be. The color doesn’t look cheap and either does the product. They come in several colors so the hard part is choosing which one to pick. They have matching railing you can get to match the deck also

Love the Look
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In my previous home, I had a huge wooden deck. My husband spent a great deal of time and money repairing, staining, and cleaning it. Trex deck boards are beautiful, realistic, and are made from 95% recycled materials. No staining or repairing required. I love the realistic graining which makes for a slip-resistant surface. The warranty is outstanding. The Spiced Rum color has a lovely variation in color which is very realistic.

Love the lighter color Trex- Deck Board !
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this recently, and of all the Trex products I’ve seen so far, this one is by far my favorite color. The lighter color really looks more like natural wood. It’s sturdy and I don’t think it will scratch when you pull porch furniture across it . I’m thinking with the lighter color it may not get too hot after it’s in full sun for a long period of time. This is a color that will match any color home you own. It’s great!

Beautiful!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this sample to test. This product is awesome. I can only imagine how beautiful it would look on an entire deck. The product is very sturdy and would probably last for years. It is looks just like wood grain. It is heavyweight. The tongue and groove assembly will make it very easy to install. The spiced rum color is a realistic dark wood stain color. Definitely a great option for a maintenance-free deck!!

Fantastic Durable Board!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I received the sample board of Transcend Spiced Rum Deck Board I was immediately struck with the solid and heavy feel of it. This is no ordinary board! A medium shade of brown, it's finished with realistic wood grain all along the course. The grooves along the side of the board suggest a tightly locked way of creating a very solid and beautiful deck. This is an exciting option for a well-constructed deck!

Beautiful Quality Decking
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a nice sized sample of Spiced Rum by Trex deck board. I love the color and most importantly the quality of the decking board. It is comfortable to walk on and is a rich color that looks like it will hold up very well on our outdoor deck. We currently have a good deck of a good size and I am definitely considering replacing our wood boards with this deck board. The boards have grooves and look as if they will slide together quite eas...

Trex Transend Island Mist Decking
Would RecommendLiked it so much on our new deck that I have decided to replace all of the railing on my other deck with the same. The old wood took a beating in the sun, but the Trex holds up and keeps its color.

Nice option for long term
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This board seems to be very sturdy and weather resistant. I left the sample outside during a few crazy rainstorms to see if it would hold up or weather. I even had my dog chew on it for a bit to see how strong it was. It seems to hold up amazing. The one issue i do have is that the wood looks extremely fake. It doesn't have any authentic look to it. The dark coloring is nice and could pass off as a dark painted real wood if you did not look clo...

Heavy duty with great color
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This deck board is heavier than I expected, which reassured me that it was a solid product. I loved the rich color of the Spiced Rum. The color was true to the picture. It did feel a little slippery under the foot of a sock... but I don't imagine walking too often in socks on the deck. Another thing that made me nervous was the deep wood grain grooves. While it makes the decking look rich, it proved to be hard to clean. I did a mustard test, by...
