It is super cute and modern, but installation is terrible
Likes:<br />- Shipping was way faster than what it said it would be. I got it in less than a month, but anticipated shipping time was more like 6-8 weeks.<br />- Very sleek and modern looking.<br />- For the price, it does not look cheap.<br /><br />Cons:<br />- The only con is installation. I could not get the screws to go into the number sign to save my life. I spent way more time trying to get the screws in than what was reasonable. I had to try it both ways. Eventually, I got the opposite end to go into the sign instead, but I had to use a wrench to help hold and tighten it. Then I had to remove the black thingy (I used a pair of scissors) and put it to the opposite side so it would stick out the amount it's supposed to stick out - which I used electrical tape to reaffix it. The screws were so bad and annoying to get into the sign - I can't say enough that this was the most frustrating thing to deal with.<br /><br />Mine did not come with a bluerprint like I read that someone else's did.<br /><br />Others said that they needed glue to set the screws into. I had glue on standby just in case, but I ended up not needing it. I predrilled holes into the house using a 7/32" bit. After I did that, I gently used a mallet to tap either side of the sign into the house. When it was all said and done, it seems pretty darn secure - but I suppose time will tell! I suppose I could have used glue, but it doesn't seem like it needed it.<br /><br />The manufacturer needs to resolve how the screws affix to the sign itself, or figure out some other way that customers can attach it to their house.<br /><br />The only reason I am giving this 3 stars is because of how much I had to work and fuss to get the screws to attach to the sign. Had I not had that issue, I would have given it 5 stars because I like the look and design of the sign so much. SO buyers beware, the screws may give you fits and you may have to mess around with that a lot!
