Step2 595200 MailMaster Plus Mailbox, Walnut

Good, solid, mailbox in my opinion. Would buy again!

Plant a 4x4 along the side of the road and bolt this thing to it. Once the post hole is dug it takes about 20 minutes to install.

Our previous mailbox was a step2 also. It got damaged by a snowplow so we replaced it with this one which is darker but similar. Its very roomy - holds good-sized packages. FYI, the snowplow didnt take it down, only broke off a small piece that didnt affect the mail part but trying to tape it back on just made it look shabby, so we got a new one.

Perfect mail box. Excellent construction. Typical durable Step 2 quality. Follow the instructions and youll be all set until the next snowplow or, as in my case, a plowed driver takes the box out again.

For me the cost to replace and the ease of replacement of an old wooden mailbox, was easier to do with this Step 2 mailbox. I opened the Step 2 box in the house and put the the two pieces together on a table. It took sliding the head of the mailbox onto the base. The instructions say this process takes two people, but I had no trouble getting the two pieces to fit with ease and without assistance. The next process entailed securing the two pieces together with screws on either side of the head of the mailbox. I pre-drilled holes, then inserted the screws with my cordless drill with ease. It would have went faster had I had someone (or something) there to help support mailbox in a standing position, but I got it done in about 15 minutes. The next day I carried the entire mailbox outside to the post. It was not heavy. I slipped the base over the wooden post with ease, and slipped a bungee cord around the base to hold the two pieces together and upright, while I worked on pre-drilling holes for the two bolts that go in the front of the mailbox. Getting the bolts in goes easier with the right tools. I had a cordless drill and drill bits to pre-drill the bolt holes, but did not have a cordless drill socket adapter, so I had to use a manual socket wrench which meant twisting those 2 long bolts in to the wooden post while on my knees, and using a lot of muscle, effort, and time. Once done, it stood upright and strong, and most assuredly will withstand the weather. Im glad I got it.

Good quality and easy to install.

I was very pleased with this product

The mailbox was sturdy and looked just like the picture. It was easy to put up with another persons help. I also ordered the 2x4 that holds it up.. I am very pleased with the product.

I purchased my first one of these about 15 years ago and it held up well till recently. A wayward drive hit it at full speed, square on, and it was a little too much for any mailbox to survive. I live in northern Ohio, so it has been subjected to all kinds of snow, cold, heat, sun and snow plows. No complaints - held up extremely well. Hope the new one does as well. Like the walnut color a lot. Installation tip: Take the time to install your 4 x 4 post plumb. I see so many of these installed leaning to one side or another.

This seems well made. It was very easy to install. I was able to reuse the post from my old mailbox which was a time saver.
