carlos rodriguez: I loved everything from quality to having 3 keys and all mounting hardware

RachRach: It was safely packed in a Prime box, and its own box, cradled in styrofoam. And because of that, I trust that even if it were accidentally dropped by the mail person, it wont get all dented. It is made sturdy as heck. The bronze is good looking. It is hefty though. I wouldn't lie if it took mighty muscles to tackle the installation. Yes, instructions were clear and easy to follow. And no, installing the box wasn't a breeze. If you're hesitant, just have a handy person do it for you.

There are holes below which is an option for those who prefer to put the mailbox on top of a metal post. Also sold by the seller. To each his or her own preference.

Since it was hooked on the wood siding and not the brick wall where the old mailbox was, when mail is dropped in, the lid makes this loud clunky sound, loud enough to be heard while indoors. But that's okay since that's the whole purpose. I want to know when mail has been delivered. I'm not saying that in a negative way.

The size can accommodate 2, maybe up to 2 & 1/2 weeks of regular sized letters, postcards, including an estimate of 5 catalogs or magazines, tops. So, this mailbox size is perfect for the wanderlust...

vibrantboredom: Simply the best balance of aesthetics, security, size, and price I’ve found in a mailbox. And I’ve purchased two of them—got one at our last house many years ago and have also replaced our old mailbox at current house with it. Holds up well in the elements and looks good near our front door.

FelixFelix: This mailbox is STURDY. I was surprised at its weight (about 20 lbs).

It was easy to install, just a bar you screw on and then the mailbox hooks into.
It's large enough to fit small amazon padded deliveries. I'm not sure what the other reviewer was saying about being able to reach in, I tried and wasn't able to.

The keys are fine, on the manufacturer website there are also options to swap the key lock with a combination lock, which is nice.

Cheche: So far so good no issues yet although some mailman did not know how to use it, left letters on top of it.
Maybe have an arrow to show how to open it.

Will call them to do so.

Amazon Customer: Nice security features the only drawback the mailman found it a bit difficult to load

Amazon CustomerAmazon Customer: We purchased this mailbox a few months ago because we rebuilt our porch and couldn’t find a mail slot to go through a steel door. Even though we live in a very safe neighbourhood, some of the neighbours told us their mail was being stolen so we wanted a locking mailbox.

This “townhouse” mailbox is very solid and seems to be better made than the lighter weight ones we found in the big box stores. It is large enough for a magazine. The lock seems good quality as well. We left off the silly plastic flag and house numbers that came with it. Our house is a 150 year old Victorian and the style of this fits nicely! We’ll see how it holds up to our Canadian winters or hot summers but so far it still looks and works great!

It was a little tricky for our contractor to install and we put in extra supports in the wooden wall because it is heavy. But the end result is beautiful.

PBT: Replacing one that is too small for flyers and A4 size mailbox. This one can handle the bigger size mails. Wish it has a handle to open the mail slot.
