4.0 out of 5 stars GREAT mailbox--unless you get a package, March 10, 2007

This locking mailbox is sturdy and easy to install and use.

However, we bought it especially because we order quite a few books (from Amazon, of course), and we wanted these treasures to be secure if we were away when the mail came. This mailbox is designed to make it just about impossible to insert anything thicker than one inch unless it bends easily. We convinced the thing to do what we wanted by removing an extension piece from the inner door and bending back the top of the inner frame--now it can accept a box 2 x10 x 12. That was NOT easy.

We wish the manufacturer had planned for small package delivery.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice mailbox, February 23, 2006

My wife and I liked the style of this mailbox, so we bought it. It has a locked storage compartment, so you can go away for a week and not have to stop the mail. It appears well made with heavy gauge steel (and the mail stays dry when its raining outside).

Because its rectangular, you want to make sure the post is plumb while it sets in concrete. You could always shim the mailbox with washers to trim it later if need be.

Only issue is that it takes a bit of wiggling to get the key into the lock (the key hole weather shield sticks a little).

Overall we are very satisfied with this mailbox.

3.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't accept some USPS priority mail boxes, June 26, 2006

This review is from: Architectural Mailboxes Oasis Mailbox, Pearl Gray (Lawn & Patio)

I bought this mailbox because I order frequently online and receive most of my packages in USPS priority mail boxes. Boy, was I disappointed to find some priority boxes wouldn't fit. While the opening is big enough to accept the priority mailboxes, the way the "hopper" is constructed keeps them from being deposited. Otherwise, I would have rated this mailbox 5 stars. Note: this does NOT refer to the Junior model.
