Re: have you ever used Trex?

My next door neighbor just had his deck built with it. He likes it except that he thinks it looks somewhat like concrete instead of wood. The lack of splinters is great for their 4 year old. It added about 5K to the cost of the deck over pressure treated - 2K over Cedar. (it's a pretty big deck). You have to use more closely spaced than usual pressure treated 2x10s to support the deck since TREX is more flexible than wood.

I wish mine were made of it, since I'm due to treat again :-(
