We bought this same mailbox well over a year ago, might be 2 years now and my husband modified by adding a 3D printed laser cut name tag for us and of course the security sensor. My husband's favorite color is red and he needed a bright red mailbox. The color does fade so I recommend spraying it with a UV protectant spray/sealer if it is going to be in direct sunlight for the entire day, like ours is. We purchase this as our replacement for the 1st one that is fading because we didn't spray it with sealer.  It's a great mailbox, we love the color, the size is wonderful for small packages and a nice strong latch.
