Solar ST200B00 Group Jumbo Size Steel Rural Mailbox, Black

Customer Rating:
Summary: No more little pink notice slips from the mail carrier!
Comment: My uncle has a box like this, and I have often admired it. I am delighted to say goodbye to trips to the post office to pick up every little package because I have dogs.

This mailbox is huge. Most packages that are too bit to fit in there would probably be delivered by UPS anyway. It comes with the hardware inside, though we had to buy some additional brackets to get it mounted.

I highly recommend this for the modern online shopper :-)

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!

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.
