Review on Secure Your Outdoor Possessions with Master Lock 719D Steel Cable and Integrated Padlock by David Bott

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Too picky about padlocks and deadbolts

I bought this to protect the surge protector I use on my caravan. It was even recommended by the manufacturer, but my issue is that the locking mechanism is very finicky when it comes to security. If you do not insert the cable end perfectly into the lock, the cable can be pulled out of the closed lock with a good tug. Several times I thought I'd locked it, pulled the key, pulled the cord, and the cord came straight out of the lock. The end of the cable must be inserted with great care so that everything is correct. It's possible the one I have is buggy as other browsers don't seem to have the same issue, but I'll look for something else that I can use with more confidence anyway.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • I'll keep quiet
