After one of my neighbors decided texting was more important than avoiding my mailbox while driving, I was in need of a replacement mailbox. Rather than let his insurance pay for a cheap mailbox, I chose to build my own "post" out of steel and cedar shiplap, and needed a nice mailbox to top it that would go with the updated design.This mailbox looks nice, is a good size, and was fairly easy to mount. I chose to use a metal plate with blind threaded bungs for mounting, but you could easily use a piece of wood cut to fit with a few screws.Overall, this is one of the nicer looking mailbox options I've seen, and is very sturdy. Hopefully the neighbors manage not to run over this one!

I bought 3 different mailboxes to try for a brick-in installation. This one is the best. Solid construction, a natural built-in flange around the front, and a flag that is easy to remove and relocate. Great finish, nice magnetic catch on the door. Couldn’t be happier.

I paired this mailbox with the black colored Mayne mailbox post. This combination has received many compliments from my friends and neighbors. As for the mailbox, it is made of nice quality. Door opens and closes with ease. Stays shut when not using. Flag holds it position. This does have the full copper look. Not a bright or flashy copper finish.

Surprisingly sturdy, well made, attractive mailbox. Replaced a much more expensive box that someone smashed, and I like this one better. Happy with this purchase.

First, this is a very high quality mailbox—nicely finished and lovely hinge and magnet closure. Doesn’t really look “copper” per se, but a nice color. It is designed to be installed solo on top of a post (which looks silly because it’s huge) and the hardware doesn’t come with it, so you have to get creative. We custom cut a piece of wood to slide underneath and then bolted that to our post. If you are not handy with a variety of tools, buy another box, but if you are up for a challenge, this is a lovely option and much nicer quality than you will get at a big box store.

Love this mailbox. Very high quality. Solid thick metal, not flimsy like most of them. I looked at a lot of mailbox options and this one is my favorite. The hinge design is great, unlike all the crappy mailboxes with cheap side pins that barely hold the door on. The flag is also superior to the cheap plastic crap. The magnet seriously holds the door closed - for sure no hanging doors with this one. Unfortunately, our mailbox post was designed around our old mailbox (extra large instead of large) and we couldn't figure out how to mount it on the existing post properly. Sadly, we went purchased a new version of the style we had but I really wanted to keep this one. If we're ready to replace the entire post down the road, I'll repurchase this one.

This is a great looking mailbox, very sturdy with a magnetic door that stays closed. My installation was on my older 4x4 horizontal mount. Used pressure treated wood under box with galvanized bolts and nuts. Took some planning and a lot of painting on my old post, but the results are worth all the time that I spent looking for the right mailbox. This looks amazing, nothing cheap about this one. I get my medicines delivered from the VA: now they will fit with magazines and an occasional box. I also ordered and used the gold address numbers on the box. 3" on the sides and 2" on the door, Look's like I have the perfect mailbox!

This is a handsome, seemingly robust mailbox. It is quite large, which is what I wanted as I don't always collect may mail everyday (long rural lane, weather, lazy). Finished installing yesterday. Looks great, will report back if there is a sturdiness issue as other have reported, but it sure doesn't look like there will be.Issue is the install. They sell separately a bracket whereby you can mount this to the top of a vertical 4x4 post. I think this big box would look funny atop a skinny 4x4. That was not my install anyway, around me folks mostly build a horizontal 4x4 extending out toward the road from a 4x4 or 6x6 vertical. (first photo). The solution is to make a flat mounting board to screw/nail to the horizontal arm, and attach the box to that. Many mailboxes allow attaching to such a board through the sides of the box, screws through holes in the "hem" if you will. This box has no such holes; you instead bolt in through holes in the bottom and hence must put holes in the mounting board, too. (second photo)Things to plan in advance:1. You will need a 1-1/2 inch thick (actual) mounting board for this kind of install due to geometry of the bottom (using dimensional lumber, say a 2x6 or 2x8 which are actually 1-1/2" thick). I used two layers of a 1x nominal (0.75" actual)2. you will need bolts and nuts, stainless recommended, 3/8" by 2" (4 in number)3. I ended up drilling the holes in the wood 1/2" rather than 3/8", because otherwise they need to be placed perfectly precisely (the holes in the bottom of the box are unforgivingly 3/8") to get everything to fit.4. Lastly, the holes are 4" apart side to side. Given the a 4x4 horizontal is actually 3-1/2" wide, this is a very tight fit for the the nuts/bolts to straddle the 4x4 one you've screwed the mounting board to same, but doable. (third photo)So, more involved to install, but ultimately I am happy with the result.
