YMMV.

Consumer Union would get more accurate product reviews if they used a
dart board.



But, for the benefit of others, I wouldn't rely simply on Consumer Reports.

Here's a few comments about the stuff made by professional contractors:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Simply put, Eon SUCKS! Don't waste your money on this poorly engineered and
unbelievably misrepresented (Consumer Reports 04 endorsement) product."

---------------------------------------------------------------------

"Eon decking is the worse decking material I ever used. My client picked it
out. Trying to use the installation instructions, we spent two days trying
to install the decking. It was impossible to install the decking per
instructions and we did the best we could with it. The expansion and
contraction of the decking material is so great that it is dangerous to walk
on.

After three years, my client (whose husband has died) called me in tears
wanting to know what could be done with the decking. She had written to Eon
and they wrote back and said the decking was installed improperly. After we
had installed it, we found they had just changed the installation
instructions!

Stay away from Eon, it is the worse of the worse decking made."

----------------------------------------------------------------------

" .... I won't offer any warranty on Eon decking anymore.
