Customer Rating:
Summary: Very nice mailbox
Comment: This mailbox was just what I had been searching for. The only possible drawback is that the handle is plastic. I hope it lasts with years of use. Otherwise, perfect!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Big 'Un
Comment: Good, solid mailbox. Simple to install the hardware. "Hardware" is plastic! I hope it holds up to the weather.
While my local postman looks for more and more reasons to have me trot down to the local Post Office to pick up parcels and large envelopes, I look for ways to avoid this. The huge size of this baby thwarts these lazy postal efforts. It is a "big 'un" and will hold ALL of my daily mail.

Summary: Product suffers from cheap latch and flag
Comment: These mailboxes are widely distributed available at lumber yards and
hardware stores as well as on line.
They are conventional design of galvanized steel and are not hot dipped. They will rust quickly as soon as a scratch appears in the thin zinc coating. The paint bonds poorly to the zinc coating and quickly (one year) comes off in large flakes.
The Plastic latch and flag hinge quickly UV degrade become cracked and brittle as they lose their plasticizers. Parts are not readily available and are relatively expensive.
In short this is a once durable product that is now so cheapened as to be unsatisfactory. unfortunately there are few alternatives on the market at reasonable prices.

Summary: Plastic Latch is Junk
Comment: The plastic latch is junk and replacements are not available at dealers, to get one you have to fill out a written order, write a check and mail to company, no internet orders and they will not just send you one. When the latch gives out the door falls open and your mail gets wet.

Summary: Nice mailbox if you can use it
Comment: The box is OK, though the bottom is a bit flimsy. The problem is the mounting. I have a round pole and it is impossible to get brackets for this size. Everybody has it for the traditional T-1 size but nothing for this one. Obviously whoever came up with the big mailbox idea didn't think that people might want to put it on their existing pole. For now the box is sitting in my garage till I figure out how can I mount it or decide to send it back. It is pretty frustrating.
