Wood effect decking brands

We're looking for a composite decking material that convincingly looks like wood. There are lots of brands like Ultradeck, Dura Deck and Assured Composites but I can't tell what's best. Any recommendations?

"TimberTech AZEK products are perhaps the best (and most expensive) of all the composite decking manufacturers. Its capped polymer boards are covered by a 50-year fade and stain warranty. Additional product lines include TimberTech Pro with 30-year warranties and TimberTech Edge with 25-year warranties"

"The best, in my opinion, is Trex decking as they are a solid deck board unlike Dura decking with is a honeycomb construction inside, and the way you fix the boards is different. Trex is definitely the way to go for a long-lasting wood effect board.



Hope this helps."

"I would recommend looking for a slip proof surface. I come across many types from wood to plastic but they're all very slippy when wet."
