Justto make it more complicated, I recommend Choice Deck (Weyerhauser product). I helped a neighbor install the Trex, but when it came to my own deck, I used the Choice Deck. I ended up using marine grade stainless steel screws drilling and countersinking each one. But the deck has held up incredibly well for the last eight years. The material does grey some. My deck is baked by the sun all year and pounded with rain in the winter. Additionally, we have a salt environment (one house from the ocean).
The previous deck was stained redwood and was thirteen years old when I replaced it. I have no interest in any of the products except as a customer.
