I like how this design clearly broadcasts our house number. Recently, the numbers started shriveling up and peeling off. I contacted the manufacturer and they do not sell replacement stickers for this unit. That said, be prepared to buy a whole new plaque in 2 years.

I like the view that you get from either side of the number plate. The mail carrier commented on how the number plate assists with the distribution of the maial.

This is a very nicely made plaque. It adds some beautification to your mail box as well.
It brightly lights up at night when car lights reflect off it.

It looks great when new, but after a couple of years the reflective background and numbers peel up and eventually fall off. It would be nice if the manufacturer offered just the replacement background and numbers and not the whole item.

This is a great product, I purchased it at a store and could not remember where when a piece of farm equipment broke it off, so I located it on amazon.com and was pleased to receive it in a short time, I am pleased with the product and with amazon.com.

I just happily removed this address plaque from the fence after installing a metal one from another brand. The plaque was put up a couple of years ago, and its plastic and vinyl components have not held up in strong Florida sun.

When the plaque was new, it didn't look bad, although it is all plastic and cheaply made. The reflective background and the numbers were a pain to apply. Applications of 303 once a month kept the black plastic frame edges from fading too badly, but eventually the numbers started to flake off, and the background loosened up. I don't recommend this product.

I thought the reflective background was already applied to the plaque, but it's actually a decal you must apply yourself. It's difficult to position perfectly into the recessed area & very difficult to lift up to reposition or to remove air bubbles. I recommend using a credit card or driver's license to push out the bubbles as you go along. Even using that technique, I was left with several small bubbles which probably contributes to the peeling problem others have experienced. While it will serve its purpose of clearly displaying our house numbers, it isn't very attractive & I will be ordering a custom made replacement.

This product lasted 5.5 years in the very strong FL sun before needing replacement. The numbers did not curl, but faded. The background adhesive paper began to loosen at edges at the 5 year mark. Our FL sun is brutal & this is durable for our location. Purchasing a replacement for my mailbox. Looks great and easy to ID location from the road.

this item did not fit my older style mailbox, so I had to rig it to fit, I like the style and the way this item works

I bought this product and it looked great for the first year, but the stickers started to fade and peel off. I tried to locate replacement stickers for the product and could not. I contacted the maker and was told that I should go ahead and replace the whole product. RIP OFF!! They want me to spend $17 for a $1.00 worth of stickers, no thanks. If the company wanted to keep customers happy and not rip people off, they would offer the stickers without making buyers purchase the entire address plaque.

I DO NOT recommend this to anyone unless you only plan to be in the house for a year.
