Has anyone here used plastic lumber, such as Evolve by Renew Plastics or LeisureDeck by Plastic Lumber, made from recycled HDPE? These are not composite plastic/wood products, or vinyl, but 100% plastic. They are a little more expensive than Trex, but appear to be maintenance free, with a longer lifespan (50+ yr warranties vs 25+ yr).

Thanks,

Geordon

How hot do they get in the summer? If people like to walk with bare feet, it could be a problem.
