Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

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.

Price


You can find safes for less money, but you won’t find any that offer as much protection.

While ups delivered it a day early, there was no advance notification and the driver merely left it at my door.

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.
