Review: High Quality, Heavy Duty Safe - Excellent safe - very pleased with this purchase. After looking long and hard for an adequate safe for multiple pistols I own, I came across this safe by chance, and overall, it had everything I wanted. Other safes I was looking at were quite small, looked flimsy, and even though they featured biometric capability, the user reviews left me very unnerved - some being broken into by children, while others being broken into with a firm strike with a fist. I am sure such stories were rare, but the fact that such incidents occurred left me highly wary of making a purchase. Not only is this safe larger than most within this price category, but the door and (4) bolt locking system is very robust. I was very pleased to see how solid and well built everything looked, and the heft / weight of this safe leaves me feeling confident that my firearms will be kept safe from curious children. Some users mentioned the carpeted shelves being flimsy and easy to give way. Yes, the shelves are very basic, but I had no troubles securing them in place with several firearms worth of weight that did not cause them to tilt or break free. Further, they are adjustable, allowing you to place them in differing areas, based upon your storage preferences. The locking mechanism feels very robust and stout - you can feel the (4) heavy duty bolts locking firmly into place, and the door has a nice solid heft to it as well. As for the keypad, it was very easy to program, and is very easy to use with soft push button keypads that allow you to input a (5) numerical code - everything except "00000", which would be ludicrous to use. I prefer this numerical keypad style of entry versus biometrics, as the more I read about biometric access, the less certain I felt. I am sure there are some excellent biometric safes available, but I simply like the basic numerical entry - safe, simple & effective, especially if you need access without fuss & bother. One of the features I like about this is the fact that if an incorrect code is inputted more than (3) times over, the system will lock out for a full (2) minutes, which will discourage a curious or malicious person trying to crack your code. In terms of security, this safe can be bolted down to the floor, which is wise to do, if you have the means to do so. The included bolts are very heavy duty, and would be very effective in keeping anyone from removing this safe from your residence. Without the bolts (despite the 100+ lbs. weight of this safe), a malicious person could pick up this safe and walk away with it - demonstrated by the fact that our FedEx driver carried the safe into our home. Access can be made with the keypad code that you enter, or in the case of battery failure (or forgetting your access code), the safe comes with (2) skeleton style keys. What I like about the keys is the fact that the key entry is 100% hidden behind the removable keypad, which is not obvious at all. One would have to be knowledgeable about this feature to utilize it correctly, so I really like this hidden aspect. However, it is highly prudent such keys are hidden with great care, as curious minds could easily ascertain this information with a basic Google search. So, if you have young children or teenagers alike, be 100% sure this set of keys is in a locale they could never find - with them, access to the safe is moments away. One aspect that would be nice is interior LED lighting, as it is quite dark further back into the safe itself. However, you can easily find auto illuminating LED's for this very application, so this is an easy add-on to a well built safe. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase. I feel confident that this safe will vastly discourage anyone from gaining access to my firearms, and I trust that this layer of protection will keep my family safe, as I always want to be as responsible as possible when it comes to firearms - especially with curious children who simply do not know better, no matter how much they are taught or drilled. Whether your intent is to store firearms like me, or other valuable possessions, I feel that this Sentry Safe is one of the best on the market when you break down the size, pricing and features. I am very happy with my purchase, and look forward to utilizing this safe to its fullest potential.
Review: Generally pleased with my purchase. There were some issues associated with it but no show stoppers. - The safe arrived early, kudos to the delivery personnel. Initially, they could not find the safe on their truck because side of the shipping box with the address label was face down and separated from the rest of the box. I presume this was a loading issue and some items may not have been secured for transport somewhere along the lengthy journey from China to Northeastern US. Generally pleased with the purchase. A few issues to highlight. The safe has about five or six scratches or bruises on the exterior; none major. Probably the result of handling. The safe was dusty inside and out. The left front shelf bracket was loose with two screws dislodged and unable to be firmly reinserted. I made a workaround. The safe must have been sitting in a warehouse for some while. There was some white powder material in various places inside the safe, probably from the insulation and (rough) handling again. Some of the interior covering material was loose. Likely, again related to repeat handling. Finally, the door handle is a little loose. Quality of product – A. Shipping and delivery – A-. Condition of product – B.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the electronic keypad fireproof? If there is a fire, is the key the knly way in?**
A: The keypad is definitely not fireproof. It is nade of plastic. The way to go in is by key in case of fire.

**Q: I want to store gold and silver. How much weight can each shelf hold?**
A: I apologize for the late response but the shelves are able to hold 30 pounds in the center. SentrySafe stands behind the quality and workmanship of our products with a manufacturing warranty, after-fire replacement program (Fire-resistant safes), and a superior US based customer service team. For questions about our products, please contact us at 1-800-828-1438.

**Q: Does this safe come with a key, just in case you forget the password?**
A: Yes, this safe does come with override keys.

**Q: I am thinking about offering these in my rooms that I rent out via AIRBNB - are the codes easy to set for new clients? I am trying to find the type that you normally see in a hotel. What do you think?**
A: The codes are easy enough to set/reset on this safe.  This safe, however, is WAY BIGGER than a hotel room safe, which is typically only big enough for jewelry, wallets, passports, tablets & phones.  I love this safe as it holds 2 standard jewelry boxes of my stuff plus room for some file folders holding important documents.  But then maybe the  clients you rent to NEED a safe big enough to hold a laptop or brief of paperwork, etc.  We LOVE this safe;  our Police Dept. advised us to bolt it to the floor for added protection.

### ⭐ Things you should know
*by J***S on August 12, 2020*

The safe came and is the right dimensions, thickness; it's large and can fit a lot of valuables. The problem is there is an EXTREMELY BAD smell on opening the safe, unlike any other safe I've smelt, and the safe has EXTREMELY HIGH HUMIDITY WHICH IS VERY VERY BAD FOR VALUABLES. Isn't the POINT of a safe to be able to place valuables in it???!! I put in baking soda two days ago and the smell is still not diminished. This was not clear to me despite reading the full Q&A (almost 100 questions) and reading all the reviews. Let me quote from the first page of the manual: "NOTICE: Do NOT store delicate items directly in your safe. SentrySafe products which offer fire protection have a proprietary insulation that has a high moisture content. In addition, the SentrySafe advanced safe close airtight to offer water resistance, which may also cause moisture to accumulate inside your safe...Please open your unit once every two weeks to avoid moisture accumulation. If you choose to store delicate items such as jewelry with working parts, watches, stamps or photos in your safe, we recommend putting them in an air-tight container, prior to placing them int he safe for storage. SentrySafe will not be responsible for any damage or loss of items placed in the unit due to moisture. Do NOT store pearls in this safe....No computer disks, audio-visual cassettes or photo negatives..." I am considering returning this thing but want to see how much I can de-humidify the safe. It's ridiculous how difficult it is to store valuables in this safe given it is basically like a sauna inside it. It is very bulky and I have it in an awkward place in my house and do not look forward to trying to ship this back. (I am also having a problem with the keypad). Do NOT recommend!
