Does the mail get wet in the rain?

My mail box is exposed to the rain and I have not had wet mail yet. But here in Los Angeles were not getting much rain. I can say that the design of the box is very smart and it would take alot of rain to get your mail wet.

NO, It does not because the top does not open. It opens front just under top ,unless you pry open door & leave it stuck with a mail.

Not a chance... this thing is very well built. Just installed mine less than a week ago. Poured rain last three days. Totally dry within.

No. The box is closed all around. The lid on the front prevents rain from getting in.

I have a small overhang on my front porch, but when rain/wind come from the west, the whole porch/mailbox does get wet. I;ve had mine abt a year and my mail has never gotten wet.

Yes. In the event of rain, you can't leave anything in the canopy area, it will get soaked.

The box says yes, but they have not been wet other than light rain. It has seals around all openings and I am pleased with them.

Yes I have left it out in the rain. The controller should not get wet but it is on the back of the panel near the top of the unit. The the panels at an angle it does not seem to be an issue. I really love this product I just can not wait until the accessories are available for purchase. I want the 30' extension cable accessory.

Should be fine if it happens to get wet. I wouldn't leave it in the rain for long though.

I wouldn't say it's "water proof" but I don't think that it wil be damaged by rain.

No it does not. I have not had any concerns with that or with rain. I am extremely pleased with this product.

Just open the box and quickly remove your mail. I never had problem with rain. Changed batteries 4 times and still the unit worked only "sometimes". Today, FEB 10, the alarm DID NOT go off when the mail was delivered, BUT DID GO OFF when my wife opened the box and took the mail out. What good is that ?

I live where it snows and MELTS FAST in the Spring. Haven't noticed any terribly wet mail. But, if it is left open even slightly your mail will be soggy.

I do not think you could leave them out in the rain. I am very happy with them I use them for all my USPS shipping and will order them again soon.

No. It's hard to keep things dry when it's raining hard but this box does a good job. You can see in the picture that the top has sides to it that cover the bottom section. It does pretty well at keeping the rain out. I am pleased with it myself.

It seems to be just friction, but it works very well. I have used mine for several years. The door has never fallen open on its own, and I have never had wet mail.

I have not used this backpack in the rain. But judging from the feel of the material I would say that it is not waterproof. It might be slightly water resistant.

I've had mine since last fall and they have been outside through rain and snow and I've had no problems with them getting wet.

Yes, We live in the Pacific NW where it rains all the time and not sure how many months we have had it now, but it looks the same as new and I think it may be over a year old in fact. It is very cute compared to the old run of the mill mail boxes that are metal and rust in this weather.
