Amazon Basics Security Safe with Programmable Electronic Keypad |Net Volume 19L (Black)

very nice productsturdy and usefull

I purchased it mainly because of the perception that it is a great value compared to other brands, like Goodrej and Yale. You get a lot bigger safe for less than half the cost of other brands. What I read is that all lowend safes are equally good or bad, unless you step up to the certified category. The cheapest Yale certified safe is about 4 times the cost, but you get a smaller safe and still get no fire safety, so I didn't see a point to invest more for the type of things you would intend to store at home (after all, it is not a substitute for bank locker).The safe I bought (1.2cuft) has plenty of room inside to store even A3 size papers with folders. There is a removable separator, in case one needs more vertical space. The safe seems sturdy, but it is light enough for one person to move it around, which means it needs to be bolted to a solid wall/floor or the thief could as well just carry it out. There are videos on the internet that show how to pick the lock on the safe with just a pen, but this one came with an updated lock design so hopefully it is not as easy to pick. After all, it is just a deterrent and I think it will do well for that purpose. While the shipping box was not concealed, there is nothing big (like a picture) that indicates that there is a safe in it (which should be the case to avoid unnecessary attraction).Now coming to the installation, I bolted it to the wall myself using a Black and Decker drill. The manual recommended using a 12mm bit, so I had to go and buy one locally for Rs.100. I first made a smaller hole and then made it bigger using the 12mm bit. I wanted to follow the instructions in the manual blindly, but they wouldn't have worked as is. After drilling the holes, the manual tells you to slide back the safe and then insert the expansion bolts, but the sleeve on the expansion bolts is larger than the hole on the safe so there is no way that is going to work. The right way would be to separate out the sleeve and nut and insert the nut and sleeve first and then slide the safe back to align the holes and then screw the bolt. In fact, if I look back at the illustration in the manual (see picture), I can see that the bolt is to be inserted without sleeve. I made a few mistakes that cost me a lot of time, so listing them here so that others can avoid them:- I didn't check if the depth was exactly 2" and for a couple of them it turned out to be 2 to 3mm more. This made it hard for nut to catch the bolt. Had I checked before inserting the nut and sleeve, I could have inserted some folded paper to prop the nut from the other side.- I didn't ensure that the bit is centered before starting to drill. For the very first hole, I ended up making a bigger hole at the other end of the hole (inside the wall). This made the nut rotate inside the wall as there was too much room. I was able to use a very long screw to flip it back.- I didn't ensure that hole is cleaned so the dust got into the threads and made it harder to catch the nut and sleeve. If you have a vacuum cleaner, use that to suck out the loose dust, otherwise at least use a hair dryer to blow it out.

Third class. And being an Amazon product they don't even give you the option of returning. They haven't even replaced it nor refunded the money. Don't by Amazon basics products. It is a waste of money. You are dumped with damaged third grade product

The media could not be loaded. Not really the best in the market, BUT best at the price and solves the purpose.It weighs only 47kgs and the Del. Agent easily carried it upstairs.You need to bolt it to wall or floor to keep it intact. Bolting option is only at the bottom.Pros:1.Design is such the hinges stay compact within side dimensions.2.Price,3.Good for Home Office. I use mainly for important dox,Passport, minimal jewelry.4.Size is big enough to hold property dox files(no bending or stuffing in) and is fire-proof.5.Weighing at 47kgs, I put it on a stool. No bending or sitting on the floor. I don't have that much space either.6.It also has Emergency Keys option if there is a battery or Numeric Dial complaint.Cons:1.You need to be extra careful not to damage the front number pad dial (though hi-quality plastic). 2.Also, the battery changing is flimsy and a menace. The wire may get de-soldered or come off with front facia if not handled properly. (But, you may not be changing batteries quiet too often).3.The inside Non-Woven fabric is not good. They should have provided a much better quality I believe.4.The Emergency Key can be used only on opening the Numeric Dial front facia. (On YALE brand Lockers it is visible and adjacent to the dial itself on the front).Verdict :I purposely went for the Numeric Locker type, so that I can ask my home to open incase Iam travelling and or any other emergencies.The Indian customer is used to Heavier Lockers like the Godrej (the incredible hulk). But you need to shell out another min. 30% more atleast.(But a locker like this is a one time purchase right ?!!!).Depends on your budget and purpose.

Its an amazing product, heavy and goid quality material,safe secure with number lock and keys are also provided for emergencyThank you amazon

The product is ok for the price, but the number lock built quality is very bad. The nob of the number locks lock broke at the first try. Then we had to look at few old reviews and realised that the number lock design had been changed completely. It looks very cheap and not at all strong.

for the price its great, it looks cool, easy to set password, the locking system is really good…the storage capacity is absolutely appropriate as per my want.

The product is as described on Amazon. However the build quality could be improved. As soon as I opened the door of the product, the inside electronics module came out. I had to use a strong adhesive to put in back in this groove. It is working fine and there for no complaints in that respect.
