What Customers Are Saying
The mailbox is reported to be sturdy and have a good locking mechanism, but some customers experienced issues with leakage, difficulty accessing mounting holes, and lack of support for replacement parts. The large mail slot and ability to hold a week's worth of mail were appreciated, but the inability to leave outgoing mail when locked was a drawback. Overall, the mailbox seems to have a mix of positive and negative aspects based on customer feedback.

Doesn't lock securely
Would RecommendThe appearance

Did not hold up
Would Not RecommendThe box itself is fine, but the lid is junk. It's held on with cheap, loose pins that almost immediately fell out. I got lucky the first few times and found it when it fell, but it finally fell under my deck and it seems to be gone forever. The manufacturer website doesn't seem to have replacement parts for this model, either. Would not recommend as it's only about a year old but had problems from the get-go.
It looks good and was easy to install

Decent but misleading
Would Not RecommendThe mailbox comes with two keys but on the manual and the key ring, it says go to our website for more keys. I went to the website and it's not valid. I called the manufacturer and it says for more keys, call this number. I called that number to be told they don't provide extra keys for this model.
Easy to open with key attached to card.
Would RecommendPerfect size for house and mail. Add a ring doorbell video cam.to it.

Doesn"t meet UPSP requirements. Not a legal.
Would Not RecommendNot even weather resistant. No flag or way to send mail out. It's going back. Does not meet USPS requirements.

Poor deterrent to rain
Would Not RecommendMounted on side of house, with some protection provided by eave of the roof. Almost every single time it rains mail gets wet. This would be excellent box if it was under more protection, But being mostly exposed shows its design flaw for keeping moisture out. Used for about 10 months, and now will be buying something that provides better protection.

Great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow! Really nice mailbox. I love the sleek style of this mail box. It is very sturdy and well made. I love the space that this mailbox provides for larger mail items. I don't have to worry about my mail being crammed into the box! Very nice!
