Failed After Just 5 Weeks
Would Not RecommendI was initially impressed with this mailbox. It looked well made, felt sturdy, and installation was straightforward. Unfortunately, after only five weeks of normal residential use, the rivet holding the bottom-right door hinge completely broke off. The mailbox was never abused—it was only opened and closed gently a couple of times a day to retrieve mail. There’s no logical reason a hinge rivet should fail this quickly, which makes me question the quality of the hardware used. A mailbox is some...
Poor lid alignment
Would Not RecommendI purchased this product back in April and I didn’t install till July. When I went to install it the mailbox lid did not stayed shut. The inner lip the holds the lid close was riveted too low. I went back to store to get a replacement and Lowe’s stated it was past 90. It was 4 days after the 90 days of their poor customer service. I went to check on the same manufacturer mailbox in the shelf the they had same defect. Poor product and Lowe’s selling poor quality products.
Weak door attachment.
Mailbox door is attached to the box by one rivet on each side. Rivet hole enlarges over time as the door is opened & closed leading to door failure and no choice but to replace the box.
Great product
Would RecommendGreat size! My packages will nicely fit inside! I love the sturdiness of the metal. And it’s a plus that my magnetic cover will stick and make it pretty!
