Good price, but FYI, this is like a hotel safe - neither fire nor water proof.

They're not thief-proof either. I've seen stuff about how easy these are to open without the code.

Yep. Couple years ago it was bouncing it and turning the handle would open. So sentry fixed that by adding a magnetic pin. However you can now use a strong rare earth magnet to pull that pin down. As long as people know this upfront and don't expect impenetrable safe it's good to stopping most people getting instant access to your private or personal items.

Doesn't really matter - your stuff is still safe... forever...

That is the beauty of this safe. It actually becomes even safer.

If you wish to keep it secure, I would recommend bolting it to the inside of a much larger safe.

It's in-store only. Until the 27th I believe.

Possibly, but at normal price. Depends on how many they sell I suppose.

Buy much cheaper small safe. Fill it with junk. 'Hide' in an extremely obvious place. Hide your real valuables in a much better hiding place. Burlgar makes off with junk. Simples.

Burglar reads this and now thinks to looks in all hiding places.
Much cheaper safe now a waste of money.

Yep, it's like the little "hidden" wall safes a few years ago that were built into the back of electric wall sockets. Then they were advertised for sale with a big advert in a national newspaper.
Safes like this are still good though, if you just want to protect against casual thieves, distraction thieves and dishonest cleaners etc.

Thought this was a good deal, then realised I'd have nothing to put in it :worried:
