Review on Decaller Stainless Steel Wall Mounted Mailbox With Key Lock And Transparent Waterproof Cover - 15.4" X 12"X 4.8 by Mike Diaz

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The bottom hinge will not open past 30 degrees and it's only very thin sheet metal

Looks are Very good. I bought it based on the looks, but the top hinge hits the wall and requires you to mount it with spacers to keep it away from the wall. It's great way to hang this. "NOT!"Even worse the Bottom hinge is not only based on 2 tiny screws, but the screws are in the thinnest Sheet Metal you can imagine and even worse, when you open the bottom, it only goes to 30 degrees down before the inside of the sheet metal hits the rubber bumpers attached to the bottom. as a way to keep you from opening the door too much and pulling the door off. Great Design. "NOT NOT NOT!"I thought about spaceing it away from the wall, I could live with that, but the bottom hinge? I thought the only way to salvage this would be to cut out the sheet metal, and pop rivet a piano hinge in place. then paint all the butchery done to re-engineer this mailbox. I learned a lot about mailboxes on Best Buy thanks to this mailbox and I only had to pay $11 to return this lemon. WHAT A CROCK.I went to home depot and bought a true Stainless Steel Mailbox that is sturdy, and attractive and well made. I found one at Lowes and bought it and I will probably return that one, but both of those were usable. THIS ONE WASN'T.

Pros
  • We received our mailbox so quick! We love it! Its very modern and adds the perfect touch to our home
Cons
  • The key lock can malfunction or break easily
