Customers are saying

Customers find value in the Wi-Fi Smart Mailbox Sensor for its mail notification feature, which conveniently alerts them when their mail arrives. The easy setup process is also appreciated, with users describing it as simple and hassle-free. However, some customers express concerns about the requirement for a bridge to operate the sensor and the relatively short battery life, which necessitates frequent battery changes.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    Batteries die rather quickly requiring me to unlatch the product and change the same. The outside of the mailbox comes off causing the bridge to not work. Lots of upkeep for sure. Also, have lost the ability to know when it is opened and mail placed in the box by the postman/woman.

    Finally got the ring mailbox sensor installed. I asked the person who popped up on you website if I needed the bridge for this item and they said no. As it turned out I did need the bridge to make this work. So please make sure your employees know this. So the sensor has been installed and is work we’ll.

    Works for me, no bridge but I did use the included antenna. I link it with my doorbell camera that will show the mail truck go by.

    I bought this for my son. He forgets to check his mail often and lives in the city. This lets him know when someone opens his mailbox.

    Nice Idea but needs some work

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased one of these to receive alerts for my community mailbox. I have been using it for a few weeks with mixed results. The good: It works in a community mailbox with the antenna inside. I get an alert saying "You've Got mail" from my Amazon Echo Show every time there is a delivery. The bad: The batteries drained after only a few weeks of use. I was told it was due to the cold weather. I have also had connection issues, but I suspect those were mostly due to the battery drain issues. Overall, when it works it's wonderful. But having to constantly fuss with it to get it to work right is an annoyance. I don't regret buying it, but they have some bugs they need to work out.

    Works well, disconnects from the bridge sometimes and the mail box door is pinching the wire a little bit
