Read the reviews and customer comments below the article here on the One Time: https://www.deckstainhelp.com/one-time-wood-deck-stain-review/

A few positive responses but more negative.

I am interested to get your opinion on the best available stain on the market  for our location and wood type.  I don't have a preference for oil or water based, just want the best.
