I love our new mailbox!!  We received it super quickly.  I made decals and had my husband put it up as soon as he could.  I blocked out most of our address, but left a little to give you an idea of how it looks.  Our old mailbox was tan, but got horribly rusted by our well water sprinklers.  I hope the black hides the rust a little better.  Time will tell.  I highly recommend this mailbox.  It's pretty and the actual interior of the mailbox is bigger than our old one.  It should accommodate small packages easily.
