What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this composite decking for its rich, natural appearance, exceptional durability, and minimal maintenance requirements. The Saddle color is frequently described as beautiful and fade-resistant, while the material is consistently noted as easy to cut, install, and work with—even for DIYers. Reviewers highlight its weather resistance, splinter-free performance, and 95% recycled content. Most customers report zero maintenance after extended use and would recommend it for future projects. A few note the boards measure 5.5 inches rather than standard 6-inch width, the surface becomes hot in direct sunlight, and the material is heavier than wood, though these are generally viewed as manageable trade-offs.

Perfect Look
Would RecommendI ended up going with Trex deck boards when the price of lumber was about as expensive as composite. In the end, I'm glad I went with composite so as to save me from the constant staining and maintenance that the later years would require. I have a ton of pine trees over my deck and I find the pine needs don't stain the duckboards like they used to on regular wood deck boards. I also decided to use the camo tool to install the screws so as to not have screws on the face of the boards and have th...
