Withstood everything but an out of control car! November 23, 2008
J. Siclari (NY, USA)
A couple of years ago, we had an epidemic of mailbox baseball that destroyed several of our mailboxes. We get a lot of mail so we want a large mailbox which increases the target size for the vandals. When we put up the Oasis mailbox, it stood fine until recently. A driver coming down our street swerved to avoid a deer and hit the mailbox. It took an automobile to break the box. That's good enough for us. We bought another one.
 Not as secure as you might think November 15, 2008
Miss Tress (Auburn, WA)
I went to our local hardware store to look at the Oasis. The clerk in the store was explaining how it worked to another customer and I was looking on. When he opened the ingoing mail door (not the locked portion) I stuck my hand in through the opening and pulled out the mounting hardware box and mounting instructions that are in the bottom of the mailbox. Needless to say neither I or the other customer bought this product.

Larger than it looks August 28, 2008

We installed this at our medical office because of a conflict with the post office. The bottom is pretty large and holds everything except XRays.
A Sturdy, Well-Made Mailbox w/ Some Security July 15, 2008
Steven K. Rody (Knox, Indiana United States)
This is a high-quality product. It is well-made and is finished well. The entry door is designed and operates much like a standard, US post office, mailbox. When open, the rear portion of the door blocks access to the lower chamber of the box. Mail drops from behind the entry door into the lower chamber, when the door is closed. The door to the lower chamber is secured from the outside front by a keyed lock. The mailbox itself is all painted, heavy-gage, steel construction. It should not be easily damaged by inclement weather conditions or light impacts. It is doubtful a single swing of a bat or club would severely damage it. I also doubt if an exploding plastic soda bottle would do serious damage to the box.
The security level is low, but sufficient to prevent the casual passerby from reaching in and extracting items. However, I feel quite sure the lock could be easily picked and the lower chamber door could be pried open by a determined thief.
The box has a flag and the entry door has an inside-mounted clip to hold outgoing mail, for those individuals whom utilize mail pick-up from their home mailbox. However, there is no security with this feature.
Those who want to mount the mailbox on a post should consider purchasing the optional 46-1/2 in. long, tubular steel, mounting post. They may also want to imbed the post in concrete. It will require about one (1) cubic foot of concrete (apprx. 150 lb). The mounting plate on the post fit right up w/ the four (4) mounting holes in the underside of the mailbox. Threaded-fasteners are supplied w/ the post. It makes a great looking and highly-functional, finished package.
One additional thought, those homes on motor routes that have newspaper delivery will have to retain their present newspaper receptacles as this box has no provision to receive and hold a newspaper. Although, a newspaper receptacle could be mounted to the side of the mailbox, the highest point on the mailbox mounting post is too low for directly mounting the paper receptacle.
