There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It has two quirks: It has a slight vampire drain on batteries. You can solve this one of two ways, either hardwiring it to a common available and cheap USB source or any 5 volt DC wart, or, replace batteries twice a year no matter whether you think you need to or not, and if you use it for daily carry, replace them maybe every four months.
Second quirk is gas strut that opens heavy door. On the one I use every day I have had to replace gas strut twice since 2013. On the other one gas strut went for eight years. The good news is 7" extended and 5 1/8 compressed with 18 lbs of force are two for ten bucks on the bay and two for 13 bucks or so here. It takes about two minutes to unscrew the one in there (by hand, you need zero tools) and screw in the new strut.
Now this is NOT a superhigh security device. But no small quick access pistol safe is. No matter what you hear, none are. The ballyhooed fort knox now has half a dozen easy exploits. All small to medium safes can be opened by a teen with access to youtube or even a 70 IQ burglar with a prybar. These give you legal protection and keep away the noisy people, and work for younger kids.
What I love about this safe is it is hands down the fastest and most likely to open on the first try with the buttons alone -- in total darkness as well -- of any quick access safe. Speed and certainty MATTER. The data show that homeowners have only a few seconds to get to their firearm in many break ins, assaults', burglaries turned into home invasions etc.
here is how you set this up for ultra quick and certain button push access: Set your combo to four pushes of a single button. Say 4-4-4-4. OK so on this safe the first press doesn't count. It only lights up the buttons. so if you can put your palm anywhere on the top front of this safe you are going to light up the all buttons. At that point you can see the fourth button, it is just the last button on a line of four illuminated buttons. Just start pressing it. If you press it four times, five times, ten times, it doesn't matter it is going to open.
In fact if you press the three button twice to start by accident, if you just move over to the 4th button and start mashing it, the safe is going to open. So you do not have to wake up startled at 3am by a home invader in your home and wait to start all over if you press one wrong button. Just get right over over to whatever button you picked for your sequence and start tapping it. If you press #2, and then #2 again by accident, and then press #4 button any amount of times, at least four times or more, it will open!
Just make sure to maintain this like any major safety tool, like your smoke alarm or fire extinguisher. If you notice lid starts to get slow, then order up a a new strut or two and get it in there. If you hear the solenoid latch click start to get softer or slower sounding replace the batteries with new Duracell's. Or even if you use it just once a week, replace batts at six months.
The standout - very fast, quick release. You can choose from a 4-6 digit security code. Button's are un numbered, which will make it more difficult to hack. Once the code is entered the lid pops open quickly, giving you immediate access to your firearm. You can attach it to the floor, the wall, or a nightstand with the included lag bolts for extra security.
The Cons- The very thing to keep unwanted hands out can cost you time. After set up, and a few "practice" openings, I've found I can get the pistol out, and ready for business time in less than 5 seconds. But like all self defense situations, its best to practice "real world" situations by opening it several times. You must press a button first to "wake up" the keypad, which means if you have a 6 digit code, you will have to press 7 buttons. Not difficult once you've tried it. The buttons are a bit mushy feel wise, they don't make any sound that would let you know you've pressed the right one, so again, its a little bit of practice.
Overall I give this safe 5 stars. Security is high, entry is quick, size is important for hiding. Any safe can be cracked with the right tools, and time, but being that the average robbery/ home invasion lasts 12 minutes, I have piece of mind with my pistol not being stolen, kids can't open it, and if I need to get it out fast, I can. Great Product.
The safe itself is very strong. Nice thick walls and pry-bar proof. I am very pleased with it. The bottom is padded which is nice but the side walls are not. Since I anchored it down to my desk I don't have to worry about my gun banging around inside. But if you are planning on moving this safe around a lot, you may want to improvise and cut-out/ glue some soft foam to line the sides with. Feel free to ask questions in the comments section and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

I wanted something to store a pistol that would keep out small hands. This works perfect and it fits inside a drawer near my bed. Totally discrete, safe to store a pistol, and quick access should something terrible happen.
