Step2 595200 MailMaster Plus Mailbox, Walnut

I had no choice in buying the mailbox. Its certified by the Property Owners Association. The color is not resistant to UV light; compare to the mailbox on the right. Its extremely faded. I did not install it; after I bought it, the builder did the installation. Ive had it for 3 months and no problems. So, Im still a happy customer, although if it werent for the Association, I would not have made this purchase.

The Step2 595200 MailMaster Plus Mailbox Walnut color was really nice. I love the darker brown tone of color that this mailbox offered. The only thing I had problems with was getting the bolt and nut to hold the flag tight. Seems it is easy for the mailperson to push it down farther than the indention where it is to rest. Other than that, I was very pleased!

This was a replacement mailbox, but almost identical to our previous one. It is actually better made than our last one and if we need another in the future (thank you, mr snowplow), we will buy again.

No problem

Sturdy construction. Easy installation if you drill pilot holes for the lag bolts to attach the unit to your 4x4 post. A ratchet is handy for driving the bolts home. So simple a monkey could it. Would recommend this mailbox over other high priced units. Should take you about 20 minutes if you have a Philips screwdriver, nut driver or ratchet and something to drill the pilot holes. Four sets of peel and stick numbers from 0 to 9. Easy peasy japaneesy.

100 % better than old one!!

This mailbox is very well put together. So it will be standing for a long time. I like the walnut color because it stands out more than others. The only issue I have is the wood still shows to the back cover.Looks tacky but well built. Happy with purchase.

So EASY to assemble !!! Once the post was set it literally took less than 10 minutes to finish assembly... Looks very good and appears to be sturdy. The use of a cordless power drill is recommended but not necessary... Quality !!!

The walnut color is very pretty, and stands out more than the typical grey ones. It fit over our wood post from the last mailbox we had, with the same openings for attaching. Very pleased!

I put up a Mailmaster plus back in October/November. Our old mailbox had been bat-thumped so many times the door wouldnt stay shut. That old mailbox gave great service, but it just could not withstand the many visits by the county boys. You know who Im talking about, the juveniles/post-juveniles who have nothing to do late at night in the middle of nowhere (TM) but drive daddys truck around burning daddys fuel so they can destroy the mailboxes of old people who cant fight back. The brave warriors of the starlit county road who do not have to rise at the cocks call because they dont have to go to work (like the old people). Well, my mailbox was found by the County Shurf three miles from my driveway, still intact. All they could do was tear off the little plastic flag and tear the box off the post. In spite of the irritation, it was a little humorous seeing all the dirt plowed up around the post. That mailbox put up a fight, I can tell you that! I reckon they put a chain through it and used their truck to rip it from the post. I suspect the flag was torn off in frustration as I found it a few yards down the road, lying in a forlorn tire track. After donning gloves, I picked it up and put it in a plastic bag. For fingerprints, yanno. (Thanks, CSI !) The deputies took the parts of the dismembered box (bagged flag and all) along with the forlorn tire track casts and said wed hear something when they caught up with em. Were not holding our breath. But! in this great new century, all I had to do was turn on the computer, run out to Amazon and order another one which arrived in a few days. Its a great box and I suspect its very beauty attracted the roving eyes of those young men (how do I know they were male? Oh, please!) Its lovely curves, its voluptuous come-hither roundness atop a graceful post no doubt was irresistible to them. Not to mention doors on both ends which allow you to place mail in the box and retrieve mail without having to stand in the actual county road to potentially be run over by a local aged county resident. So stands my new mailbox by the side of the road and is a friend to man. At least, folks think it is pretty. All the mailboxes along our road are new and shiny now, but none as lovely and serviceable as our faithful Mailmaster Plus. Thanks Amazon! A great product, a great service and a terrific mailbox.
