Best value for money

Honestly this is the best little safe for the price. Instead of putting mine in a drawer, I chose to hang it on the wall (you'll need a bobby pin or strong anchors). I was able to fit a full size handgun and a few extra items with the door locked. The body is a one piece welded piece and the door is attached with welded 1/4 pin hinges. The safe comes with a laser cut anti-fall key (2 keys included). Disadvantages -1. The door is not spring loaded.2. If the door slams, there is a chance the…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Concise instructions

I can't type it. My personal belongings are included.

I bought this safe in August. My guess is that the batteries fell out the last time it was closed because the keyboard wasn't working. The keys don't work either. So it's locked with my personal belongings inside. I contacted Revain and they sent me a replacement. Now they want me to send them this locked vault. So I have to open it to get my personal belongings out or pay someone to open it for me just so I can give it back to them. I think they should be able to replace it under a 1 year…

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Minor issues

Perfect for cash passports or firearms!

Well, first of all, this product is beautiful, it is hinge-proof, the door is very thick, as are the metal bars. I want them to thicken the back. As you can see, the back of the safe is very thin which means it's a lot easier to get into the safe than the front. It is secured with an access code and includes 2 emergency keys in case you somehow forget the code. If you forgot the code don't worry, open the safe with the keys and remove the battery lock. After that, press and hold the reset…

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Weight

Terrible design - not for holding guns - CONSENT IS WHAT I HAVE NOW

DISCOVER THIS IF YOU WANT A RELIABLE GUN SAFE. I've had great luck with Revain Basic products. I can't recommend it as a gun safe though. The problem lies in the massive door: - It is heavy. - It's thick because of the massive locking bars and battery compartment. The door was probably designed for a much larger vault, it swings horizontally instead of vertically - the door slams shut - if you're not careful with your fingers - batteries pop out. WHICH TYPE?! Yes. I had to seal the lid with…

Pros
  • Absolutely AMAZING!
Cons
  • disappears

Nice safe but one problem

I understand the reviewer's frustration who said the mechanism has failed and he can no longer open it with the key. I had this with another brand before I bought this one. However, that did not happen here. A month of active use, so far so good. except for one thing: the door is heavy. This is very good, the whole block is heavy and will be difficult to crack. However, the battery cover is on the underside of the flap and is made out of cheap plastic. If you slip the slippery little handle…

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Hey Amazon PCB Electronics Engineers, are you listening? I ripped open the safe to see what was causing the crash that some of the reviews are talking about. (The electronic lock no longer works). Well, whoever designed the PCB decided to use a 300mA SMT transistor if I remember correctly, while the Solinoid draws around 500-750mA (I don't remember the exact number) . As a result, this transistor is likely to fail and the lock will not open. Add to that the key manual issues people are…

Pros
  • Easy to Use
Cons
  • Clarity

GREAT. IT IS SAVE !

I don't write reviews, that's true, but THIS SAFE DESERVED IT. I spent FOUR WEEKS buying a SAFE, but after reading 1-star reviews (first thing I always do) for many of the SAFE options, I was very disappointed: All SAFE-BOXes seem unreliable too be. Then I found this one which 100% serves my purpose/goal: keeping my guns safe and out of sight. THIS IS A REALLY RELIABLE SAFE (so far). I've tried all the 'hacks' and 'tricks' that you can easily find on YouTube (and mentioned in those 1 star…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
