This is a great rustic mailbox that accommodates modern-day mailings such as large magazines an envelopes.  The only down-side to this mailbox is that it doesn't lock.  This is not a concern where I have the mailbox located, but if you want your mail to be locked this isn't the on for you.  Other than it not locking which is part of the design and not a flaw, it's an excellent mailbox.
