Customer Reviews for Trex Transcend 1 in. x 6 in. x 1 ft. Island Mist Composite Deck Board Sample - Grey

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This decking sample is sturdy and well-made. It’s a great color, texture, and would make a great deck.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Its a very sturdy material and love the color. The texture is really good. Will definitely recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is a very nice color and it's thick. We were looking for a type for our backyard to create a patio and this one has a nice tint to it and it feels really sturdy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the gray color, it gives me a coastal home feeling. It seems heavy and seems durable, but when you look at the back side and edges, it appears to only be pressed wood. There is a very thin top layer for the look and I wish it was somewhat deeper. Hopefully this board is treated in some way, so that it lasts a long time. I don’t know how long it will last once the weather gets to it. It doesn’t look like much protection against water. Overall great color and seems pretty solid, just worried about how long this will hold up.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received just one 1-ft piece, so I wasn't able to try it as an actual deck. The color is beautiful and the material looks very sturdy and durable. It's light enough to install yourself and looks super easy to install.

Good product and good service from Home Depot personnel.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Extremely durable and absolutely beautiful. I Use Trex for several different projects and I could not ask for anything more. This stuff is just great. I will recommend this product to my friends and family. Thank you, Trex for such a great product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this sample to see if I would like to use it in my home. While the sample itself was of good quality, it was not what I would use in my home we are building. The only reason I gave it 3 stars was because of the quality. Maybe others have and might even have used this, I cannot see us doing so.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was nice to see in person and decide why other colors can build around it. Highly recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received my Trex - Transcend 1 ft Sample - Island Mist it is a beautiful mix of grays. Being from a construction family who built decks using only Trex and have trex on our own deck i know the beauty and durability of this product. Trex boards out weigh traditional wood deck boards hands down.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked this style, the island mist is pretty. It’s strong and durable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an excellent deck sample and I sincerely love the aesthetic texture of it. It's only a 1 feet sample item but the product can be used in a variety of ways. I'm currently using it as a small shelf space item on my wall. It can hold small books and other treasured items. It is not large enough or sturdy enough to hold televisions or full-size stereo systems but it can hold small computer speakers. The nature of this material is faux wood. I definitely think the item will hold up with time and I sincerely think the manufacturer of this item will improve the material in the future. I love this item!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a nice style that I could see in my home or deck. Very different but in a good way. Overall I like it.

Rating provided by a verified purchaser

I am reviewing Trex Transend about six years after I rebuilt my redwood deck. I got tired of having to do extensive maintenance every 3 or 4 years on the redwood but the last straw was damage to the sub-structure from carpenter ants. After six years, my deck looks like new. I am not exaggerating. I live at 8300ft elevation in Colorado. At this elevation UV exposure is usually a problem with fading and deterioration of most plastics. The other day I brought a spare board out from the basement and compared it to the deck area with the most sun exposure. No fading, no deterioration of any kind. High traffic areas like the steps leading up to the deck also has no wear. My only complaint is that the simulated wood grain is a pine tree pollen magnet. Every late spring I pressure wash it with soap. Takes less that an hour to restore the newness. Did I mention extensive maintenance to my old redwood deck? I also made several custom assemblies such as a handrail and custom covering around the railing posts. I assembled the pieces with water resistant white wood glue and I painted exposed cuts with matching spray paint. Six years later, still like new.
