I have used the solid North Dex composite cedar decking. I like it. I have had it installed for over a year and no major downside to go with the savings, so far. It has faded to almost a light brown, instead of the original cedar color. Personally, I prefer this, as it doesn't get as hot. The traction seems to be good. It is no longer slick looking either, also don't mind this. I have not tried to clean it yet, but am adding on a bigger deck now, and plan to buy an power washer to clean it. Doesn't really need it yet, but I want a power washer anyway. I installed the first deck with stainless steel screws with a very small head, these mushroomed a little, but less than the screws that claim not to mushroom. For my current deck I am using a nail gun, with finishing nails. Definitely better, faster, and you can barely see where they go in.

How many boards could the mongols horde if the mongol hordes got bored?

The mongol hoards would hoard all the boards they could hoard as long as they had room to hoard more boards.If the mongol hoards liked hoarding boards, (I'm not saying they do) then they would hoard boards like no other board hoarders. They may even hoard as many boards as a woodchuck would chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood. But if the boards they hoarded were mongolian hoarding boards then they would hoard as many hoarding boards as they could hoard before they horded normal boards. If they could only hoard normal boards then they would hoared all the boards they could hoard before they got bored. Damn mongolians
