    My parents had a deck made out of some kind of plastic that looked and felt like wood at their old house. It looked good and didn’t seem to have any issues after like 15 years. Haven’t seen that stuff anywhere else. Maybe it’s too expensive.

      I just made a deck with that a few years ago. There are actually two types: composite (wood covered in plastic) and full plastic. The boards are perfectly straight and it’ll never need stain. It was definitely more expensive, but it’s nice up here in Michigan.
