What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the cedar mailbox post for its attractive appearance, durability, and natural weather resistance. Many highlight its rich color, aromatic scent, and curb appeal, with reviewers noting it feels sturdy and well-built. The cedar's insect resistance and rot durability are frequently valued, especially when sealed or stained. However, many note the post falls short of USPS installation standards, requiring extension or modification. A few mention inconsistent workmanship like splinters or rough surfaces, though most resolve these with basic sanding.

Rough and knotty
Out of a stack of about eight posts, I chose the particular one that was least flawed, that being it had no cracks or chips. However, the finish was marred by black, markings one face of the post. I got the idea it was a backyard operation or somebody assembling multiple product .

Cedar but too short
Would RecommendOnly cedar post I could find. However, like other reviews have stated, the post is too short and the build quality is poor. I needed to add a wood screw or two to keep it from moving when I opened the mailbox. To be one inch above the USPS minimum height, with my yard grading, I could only get 12" of the post in the ground. To still use this post, I bought a three foot section of 1.5"x1.5" angle aluminum. I screwed this to the bottom 12" of the post and trimmed off about 10". This served a...

Shrinkflation?
Would Not RecommendI bought this post to replace a previous cedar post that had been purchased from Lowe's. The previous post had been damaged so I thought this would be a direct one for one replacement. What I discovered is the post is shorter. The distance from the arm to the bottom of the post went from 57 in to 52 and 1/2. The length of the arm jetting towards the street had gone from 19 and 1/2 to 15 and 3/8. The short vertical piece above the arm had gone from 18 and 1/4 to 14 and 5/8. I'm sure that cost pla...

It'll work, but the wood was highly flawed
This is pretty sturdy holding our large metal locking mailbox but the wood was cracked and had a lot of flaws. It looks like it was haphazardly put together. We reinforced with deck screws.

Would RecommendI liked cedar post over the pine post. Had to install because of post master requirements.

A little short
Would Not RecommendThe post looks good. Construction quality is not the best, but that is not the biggest issue with it. It is too short. From where the mailbox sits, to the bottom of the post, is 55.25 inches. The USPS Installation guide states a mailbox should be installed 41-44 inches from the road surface. So, if you were installing this in a surface even with the road, this would leave 11.25 - 14.25 inches of post to put in the ground. If you have a curb, you might have a little more. If you have a slope lea...
With a few deck screws, it's perfect!
Would RecommendThe price was right and it's the perfect length if you follow the specifications from USPS about how deep to bury the post. The securing nails were insufficient to hold the post together long term so I reinforced those with deck screws. It looks even better than I'd hoped it would.
