i purchased it to go with a solar heavy duty mailbox. not enough metal. this is especially true in my case, using a heavy duty box. please, do yourself a favor, and don't throw your money away on this post. the upright post is thin but probably sufficient for the purpose. cheap chinese design. however, the support post that actually holds the mailbox is too thin to do the job.
The heavy snow caused the bracket to break right off. This product was very easy to install, but it won't hold up very well to harsh winters. We've only had it about 2 years, and the bracket which supported the mailbox became rusty and weakened near the post. I don't think it is fixable. One good encounter with the snowplow this winter, and it was all over.
I placed my order of your mail box and post on a wednesday evening and delivery was on thursday, super fast. No problems recommended. very easy to assemble and good quality.
This was the Amazon suggested post for use with the Jumbo Rural Mailbox ST20B and it was just plain too flimsy for this size mailbox. Do not buy this post set for large mailboxes unless you want to do manual modifications to it. I had to go to the hardware store to make support brackets to attach the arm to the post and then another support bracket for under the actual mailbox.
