Everytime I see Trex mentioned I wonder if I am the unluckiest guy or how on earth some of you get a totally different experience...

I had trex twice, Once in FL voluntarily ( bought it) - that stuff is heavy as hell BTW. After a couple years it started making waves and drooping between supports (built to spec, not too spaced out).

Then I moved back to Cal, and inherited more trex on my upper deck. Looked fine at first. Couple years later, same deal, it looks like waves on the ocean, it bends/drops between support beams... As far as I am concerned it's total *$hite* - there's about one 1ft between supports and it's still sagging in between. Real wood for me going forward, maintenance and all - the downstairs deck is redwood and the same age, and it's still straight !
