Architectural Mailboxes 2681R Marina Wall Mount Mailbox, Small, Red

so cute and sturdy, added curb appeal in the house bcoz of the color

I'm an artist. I bought this mailbox so I could paint on it for a friend of mine. It was the right size and it holds colour really well if that's something you're looking for.. if not, it's still a really nice sleek black mailbox. Definitely worth it!

Architectural Mailboxes 2681B is well constructed and the metal is of a satisfying weight. The paint is smooth and there are no sharp edges. There are bumper pads under the lid to reduce noise when the lid is dropped. Overall, this is a well-thought out product. Inside size is 9 ⅝ x 6 ⅝ inches.

The mailbox is nice and sleek looking but the top arrived totally scratched up. I received it in the midst of painting the exterior of the house and things were too crazy here to bother shipping back but I was definitely disappointed with that and when I look at it now I wish I had exchanged it when I first got it. But, other than that, it's a really great size and neutral enough that it fits well with a variety of housing styles.

The lid is hinged to the body by a pair of grooved pins, each held in place by means of a circlip in the groove. My box was delivered in an undamaged package but with box bent at one corner and one pin dislodged without sign of circlip. I straightened the damage and substituted #6 screw with locknut. I cannot imagine the box was packed in the condition received yet I'm puzzled as to how it could have been damaged like this in transit. The materials, workmanship and finish seem good. The box was not difficult to install. The overall appearance and performance are quite pleasing.

Arrived quickly and well packaged. Smaller than expected but since the majority of our mail is delivered in a community mailbox, I just wanted something to replace the old outdated wooden one we had. Also, the black colour matches the new parcel drop off bin I purchased from Amazon too 😊
