What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this composite decking for its exceptional durability, realistic wood-like appearance, and low-maintenance nature. The Island Mist color—a medium gray with rich grain textures—is particularly celebrated for its authentic look and versatility across home styles. Reviewers emphasize the material's sturdiness, weather resistance, and ability to hide scratches through consistent coloring. The grooved design enables hidden fasteners for a seamless finish, and many find installation straightforward even for DIYers. The 25-year warranty reinforces confidence in long-term reliability. A few note minor concerns about surface thickness or rare color inconsistencies, but most consider the product exceptional value.

Heavy Duty

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a sample of the Mist deck board. I have to say before I could even open the box it was soaked by rain and snow, which was awesome b/c it showed me it could weather the elements! The color is amazing and how sturdy it is also is great. It has a 25 year limited warranty on fading and staining and I love the fact its 95% recycled material.

SOLID AS A ROCK

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The color and texture look very much like wood. It's a very pretty product. I would imagine it will wear quite well. It does scratch (like wood), but the scratch doesn't have much of an impact on its appearance because it's the same color all the way through. The one possible negative is its weight -- very heavy. Which will not be a big deal for new construction, but having the proper support for an entire deck of this product would be somethin...

Amazing Product!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] On my adventure of trying to find the perfect material that I would like to have a deck made out of, I came across Trex decking Transcend Island Mist. I was impressed by how heavy it was. That it was made out of recycled materials. Living in Maine the winters can be harsh, so I took my deck board sample and placed it outside with snow, and ice. I was impressed that I could scrape solid ice off of it and not see any real deep scratches.. I ...

Awesome

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sample provides an excellent impression that the full size product is well made. It is thick material and very easy to clean. It has a nice look and feel to it. The color is just right for my liking. It appears it would be easy to assemble due to the side grooves it has. It is quite heavy in weight. I would definitely purchase in the future and recommend to family and friends.

A quality product

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a sample of this deck board and must say if I was in the market to redo or install a deck, I would highly consider this product. It is a very sturdy piece with a beautiful color. The sample also has a nice texture and finish that one would want for a deck. It looks to be of very good quality.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow...better than what I thought. I can wait to start on my new deck! These boards are well made and are reasonably priced. They are thick, water resistant, easy to install and made to last! My deck is going to be my new favorite place to be. I love the color I choose. (The have several to pick from) I am sure that though out the years I will have to repair and replace things in my house but my deck will not be one of those.

Nice looking

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got a sample of this to see if it's something we may consider. I like the color but would choose something more in a brown. We live in the North and get alot of snow, not sure how this would be to walk on with the ice and slippery conditions we get. It's very thick not a flimsy piece of decking.

Trex Transend Island Mist Decking

Would Recommend

Liked 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.

Color Problems Ruining Deck Look

Would Not Recommend

I am using Trex in a 1000 ft sq deck job. I decided on Trex Transcend Island Mist. A third of the way through I started running into boards that have serious coloration discrepancies with the rest of my deck. My vendor contacted the Trex rep to address the issue and two days later, nothing. I am stuck waiting. The product might be good, but color quality control is very poor. See attached photo. What would you do in the middle of this big of a project? Take a look at the photo, the boards on t...
