Just finished my deck and the difference between treated lumber and composite was huge
I built a 12x16 foot deck last spring, one side with pressure-treated pine and the other with a basic composite. After one winter in Ohio, the treated wood has already warped in a few spots and needs a fresh coat of stain. The composite side just needed a quick hose down and looks exactly the same. I thought the upfront cost was too much, but now I wish I'd gone all composite. Anyone have a good brand of composite that doesn't get super hot in the sun?

My Trex deck in Arizona still looks new after five brutal summers.

Forget fading, @wendyj24, I wonder if it gets too hot to walk on barefoot.
