Pros & Cons
Pros
It's heavy enough that i think it will deter a casual thief or * head, and has some fireproofing which is a big bonus. Only complaint is not about the safe, but rather the amazon sale.
Comes with one factory-installed permanent 5-digit code to open lock. The keypad lock is very user friendly. The digital lock sure speeds up entry and works smoothly.
Cons
The handle is flimsy. Internals are all plastic. The heavy duty locking pins are some sort of painted plastic or very light metal. The lock is sticky.
Once opened, there was a substantial dent just above the door. I’m thinking the seller ended up getting a bunch of damaged safes and is trying to resell them. Disappointed in the quality and workmanship of the safe.
Every time i try to unlock it, the same issue happens. Keypad refuses to accept the code.
Highlights
Quality
Was impressed with how sturdy it is.
It is hefty and feels very well made.
The item description says this unit requires 4 aa batteries.
The instructions mention that the handle is designed to "give" in the even that someone attempts to force it open.
Price
You can find safes for less money, but you won’t find any that offer as much protection.
If you are looking for a solid safe this is a good option here for the money!
It was large enough to hold 3 yrs tax returns
It’s smaller than i really wanted but i’m satisfied with the overall price and sturdiness

Multiple packages in a row that have arrived in bad shape.
Second, it arrived with a dent on one corner.
It must have been dented before it was packed at the factory.
Competitiveness
I looked into a variety of safes of several different brands and concluded that sentry offers the most for the money.

But you can force it back the other way to pop it back into gear

On safes with the internal compartment in the door you need to use the emergency keys to open your safe if the batteries die

Dont know about you but those keys would be lost in my house within a month

On this safe you just slide the battery door open on front mechanism and pop in some new batteries
