Went through a house fire
on September 21, 2019
Posted by: anonymousbuyer
from Defiance, OH
My house burnt down in a fire and I lost everything. The entire house had to be demolished, all my furniture and clothing were lost, everything. Except my lock box! The outside was (of course) burnt badly. The plastic latch had melted against the outside. We had to take a small hatchet and break the latch off. But when we opened it, everything on the inside was in perfect condition. I lost everything in the fire, but at least this one single thing made it through!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I had a safe I got from my job that is about 15 years old. I decided to upgrade it. This safe works perfectly with my needs. Nice unit and price.

Just what I needed

I recently moved and needed a safe place to store my documents, jewelry, etc. I am a little bummed I can't store my pearls in there, but that's ok. It is the perfect size and easily carried because of the handle. Let's just hope I never have to actually use it...if you know what I mean.

Locking mechanism is trash.

from Eaton, CO
I have 2 of these safes and neither locking mechanism works. I have no doubt the the actual safe is quality, but the locking mechanism is not useable or reliable. I cannot get the safes to lock, even with downward pressure.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
