Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
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 RecommendI replaced all of the horizontal boards (>1500 board feet) on my deck, including stairs with Trex Transcend. I simple got tired of re-staining the wood every 2-3 years. I stained all of the vertical wood to come close to the appearance of the Trex. I did all of the work by myself. I thought installation was relatively easy. Aside from a few boards that were delivered with flaws (they were replaced at no charge), I encountered no problems with the boards aside from some minor warping. That was...

Useful when picking a color for larger projects
Would RecommendIt did the trick, but took extra effort to get it. These sample boards a useful when trying to choose a color for larger jobs. I bought them after I set up a consultation, sponsored by Lowe's, for a deck. Two weeks later, I received a call from the Lowe's contracting desk to tell me they no longer provide these services.

Great looking deck
Would RecommendFinished product comes out looking really nice. Just make sure you order plenty of the PVC plugs to conceal the screws ahead of time. Rope Swing is a color that sells fast and availability is sometimes difficult.

Beautifully crafted!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been looking into flooring for months and none have compared to the craftsmanship of Transcend! The grain is absolutely beautiful and it is not flimsy or rough feeling like so many I have tried! Definitely recommend!!

Very Nice
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Spiced Rum color would be beautiful for a porch or deck, the weight is very nice and very easy to clean up...all I used was a damp cloth. I love the fact that this is recycled materials and splinter free. Just knowing my kids could play on the deck and not worry about getting splinters is such a big deal to me.

It’s a sample..
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered this sample, as I am an interior consultant, I wanted something to show clients when recommending this product. As this is just a sample, it serves its purpose. This did not come with any literature about the product, or its cost.

pretty
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the way this decking looks. I think it would be awesome to have a whole deck made out of it. The color is great and the feel of it is nice. I am sure that a deck made of this would last for many years and still look great.

Looks Like An Improved Generation of Trex
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am comparing this to some Trex product on my deck that is just over 10 years old. This is a good improvement over earlier generations of Trex. The color coating is substantial, and if scratched, holds its color well. The texture looks more like wood grain than some older Trex I have, so this will be less slick when wet or covered with a bit of snow. This very solid, and I am hopeful that it will have outstanding durability and mildew resistan...
