4.0 out of 5 stars
A Great Little Peace of Mind, January 30, 2008
I picked this up for a pretty good price and was pleasantly surprised to see it said Made in the USA when I got it, cool. It's big enough to hold some of my papers, data discs of family photos and a couple other things. It gives me real peace of mind whenever I leave the house that even if the worst happens I'll still have some of my most important stuff. They even offer a replacement program where they replace it for free if it does ever serve it's purpose and melt down protecting your stuff!
From their website, it will protect USB drives, CDs, DVDs, memory sticks, etc. from an average fire. I think it protects pictures adequately, but it won't protect floppies or negatives. It's maximum internal temperature should only get to about 350F, so theoretically anything that could survive a half hour in that should make it.
If you want to store things like tax records or have flood risks, don't get this; go get their hanging folder unit that's also waterproof. Another important thing to remember, this unit promises "privacy" not security, so if you need to keep stuff secure this isn't for that. You can order replacement keys for it, I think for $12, so if your kid wanted a peak or someone steals it, no protection.
There's not too much to say about functions, the only moving parts are the key slot (two keys included) and the lid which functions in both the super exciting open position and the somewhat less exciting, but equally necessary closed position. Let the good times roll!
The *only* reasons I give it 4 instead of 5 stars is the locking mechanism is a tad cheesy, though functional, and it's not wide enough to place an 8x10 piece of paper in without folding it. I'd still recommend this unit highly. It's not much money for a 1x security investment.

Personal belongings safekeeping box, May 22, 2009
This item is a must have for households who wanna keep personal belongings safe. It's heavy and big, which means you can fit many important documents inside, like birth certificates, Social Security cards, IDs, cash, wills, life insurance policies, etc. It's fire proof, due to the plastic exterior coated over solid steel and the steel interior. It can be stored anywhere and comes with its own keys.

Great for safe storage, February 24, 2009
This product is great if you have items you need safe. It's the perfect size for documents and small valuables. It not only protects from fire but if you want to feel a little more secure about your valuables its perfect. Also great if you like me spend hours looking for documents when you really need them.
