This safe does not stand upright on its own, and when the door opens it tips over. It has to be fastened to the floor or ground in order for it to even be functional. This is not mentioned anywhere in the description, only in the manual it comes with. If you are okay with that then it works
For the money and what I needed it for, it is perfect! Sturdy protection (not fireproof and/or 300 lbs) for storage of my firearms. Bolted to the wall anyway, so it just cant be just carried away. I guess I would have liked it a little bigger, but that takes me to the next level and I didnt really need that. Electronics work well and easy to operate.
Was looking for a small footprint and affordable gun locker. This seemed to fit the needs. It will not stop a thief from getting to your contents if they are determined. However, it will keep kids away from your firearms. I attached two 1x4 wood strips to the wall in the studs and then affixed the locker to the wood strips. Much sturdier than using drywall anchors. The shelf brackets were too low for my shotgun. So, I attached a 1x4 to the top bracket to raise the shelf up about 4 inches. You can see in the photo. I added two motion-detected puck lights to the ceiling affixed by magnets. It lights up rather well in the dark. Overall, happy with my choice and the footprint. Packaging was well done by the seller which was needed to arrive undamaged. Seller provide the door accessory after contacting them about a broken gun rest that they replaced.
Packaged well, arrived on time. Conforms to the product description and the user manual is clear and concise. No, it wont stop a determined thief with enough time and the proper tools, not at this price point. But for what it is billed as its peace of mind and enables me to conform to the restrictive gun storage laws in the nanny state I live in. Take the plunge and buy it.
As other reviews have stated, this isnt to keep thieves out of your guns (and really, if they want to get in and have the time to spend, almost no safe will work). This is a mid-tier safe intended to keep my kids out of my guns and for that it works perfectly. You cannot put large rifles with optics in here though. Youll have to remove the optic at the very least. If you have a big gun collection or fear people trying to break in then youll want to look elsewhere. If you want to keep honest people honest, make it so kids cant just come across your guns (in that back closet you think is hidden but isnt) and dont have a lot of guns then this is great.

Safe does not stand upright, extremely wobbly and tips When door opens

Great Fit
Just as described. Plenty of room and I really like being able to lock the top box.
Not bad not great
Came a little banged up. After this one arrived saw one better for the same price at sportsman warehouse
Its ok
If it wasnt so thin and the came with the right screws I would have given it 4-1/2
Awesome for what I wanted

Cheaply made for the price
Considering this was pricey, its pretty cheap looking and the lock is easy to break into. Overall disappointed.
