I just installed this product and the water heater has not been put in yet, but overall, I would say this recessed box is a must to have the best looking system when installing an exterior model. I would have purchased an interior model vs. the exterior. Keep in mind that this box is technically for a new build. If you install this in an existing area you will need to take down sheet rock at minimum to install properly. I only gave 4 stars for features because there is really not much to say about features. It would help if the holes on the bottom were pre-drilled for you since this box is model specific, but I have plenty of tools included calipers so it is really no big deal. I suspect it is done like this just in case you need to enter the box elsewhere with the plumbing. The box appears to be well made and arrived with no dents or scratches. It is a "pure" white color but I painted mine to match the off white color of the house. If I am able to do it, I will update this review with another pic after the water heater is installed. I would definitely recommend and purchase again.
