1.0 out of 5 stars Keep Away from this Safe, April 20, 2009

I would think twice before buying this safe. I've had it a year and have always had a problem opening it. I've always had to enter the combination multiple times before I could get it to open. It grew increasing bad, requiring more and more tries until this weekend when it would not open at all. Customer Service is not available on the weekend. I reached them on Monday and their solution was to hit the top and front with a rubber mallet. It opened after entering the combination three times. I had to purchase a new electronic part at $25 + tax and shipping. Stay away from SentrySafe electronic key pads.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Safe Overall, May 2, 2008

I originally purchased this safe to easily access the contents. Because it has an electronic keypad, I thought it would be just the ticket. The problem is that it also requires a key to open the safe. When I considered this safe to buy, I thought that I could just leave the key lock unlocked. But to lock the safe, you have to push the lock tumbler in. Otherwise the safe will not lock shut. So much for quick access. You have to have the key every time.
Overall, the safe is well built and comes with a nice locking interal shelf. The fire rating is decent and comes with floor mounting hardware. Sentry has an excellent warranty and covers most items in the safe if you bother to make a list of them and submit it back to the company.
Would have been five stars if it had not been for the locking requirements.

The Safe is now safely fastened to the concrete floor and we have placed personal items in it. We now have our fingers crossed that we are able open it as it took several practice attempts with the combination, (while the safe was open) to successfully open. It's well built and thus far we are satisfied with the purchase as we've owned Sentry safes previously.
