Tools and Hardware Reviews of Solar ST200B00 Group Jumbo Steel Rural Mailbox, Black
Customer Review: Not to happy
Summary: 2 Stars
I had to beat the dents out of it. I could tell by the packaging that it was damaged before it was shipped.Customer Review: Okay for the price
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this because my letter carrier does not want to bring my packages to the door. The only thing I found that I did not like
is the door does not stay closed. Other than that it serves the purpose I bought it for.
Customer Review: Plastic Latch is Junk
Summary: 1 Stars
The plastic latch is junk and replacements are not available at dealers, to get one you have to fill out a written order, write a check and mail to company, no internet orders and they will not just send you one. When the latch gives out the door falls open and your mail gets wet.Customer Review: Plastic parts do not age well outdoors
Summary: 2 Stars
I agree with other reviewers that the problem with this box is the lack of available replacement parts for the plastic latch which WILL fail. Simple plastic part now not available at all as far as I call tell. Will spend more for a box with metal latches (such as Gibraltar brand)for a replacement.Customer Review: Product suffers from cheap latch and flag
Summary: 2 Stars
These mailboxes are widely distributed available at lumber yards and
hardware stores as well as on line.
They are conventional design of galvanized steel and are not hot dipped. They will rust quickly as soon as a scratch appears in the thin zinc coating. The paint bonds poorly to the zinc coating and quickly (one year) comes off in large flakes.
The Plastic latch and flag hinge quickly UV degrade become cracked and brittle as they lose their plasticizers. Parts are not readily available and are relatively expensive.
In short this is a once durable product that is now so cheapened as to be unsatisfactory. unfortunately there are few alternatives on the market at reasonable prices.
