Sentry Safe Safe Box, 14.3 x 15.5 x 13.5, Black & Pendaflex File FoldersLetter Size, 8-1/2" x 11",- Key, Classic Manila, 1/3-Cut Tabs in Left, Right, Center Positions, 100 Per Box (65213)

Exactly as described. This is good fire/water protection for important papers. The lock is for privacy and not theft deterrence, but that's really how the company describes it. While it does weigh around 50 pounds, reviews stating its weight is a theft deterrent are only correct if you live in the land of anemic burglars.

Worth the money ! Good quality ! Lock and easy to use ! Performance is great

A bit heavy, seems heavy duty, key can be better, if you fill it up with files the file holders push forward and the lid won’t close correctly, it needs a stopper at the end of the little rail.

The unit itself met purchase expectations with regards to overall quality, build, storage space, etc. Works fine for needed purposes. Only minor concern is the very flimsy key. These units are used to store valuables (jewelry, documents, etc.); would feel more comfortable if everything conveyed strength.

this safe seems extremely sturdy, it’s very heavy which i was not expecting, however it makes sense with the size of the thing, which i was also not expecting. hopefully we’ll never have to put it to the fire/waterproof test, but something tells me our documents would be just fine. for this price i expected something smaller but i’m not complaining!

My husband and I don't have a lot of space, so this one is a perfect fit for us. The size is perfect, and if locks great.

Very good quality. But I am 78. Couldn't move it at all.

Between my wife and I, over the years we've accumulated 4 of these fire safes, for legal papers, passports, bank records, etc. We do NOT keep valuables in these because anyone can just pick them up and carry them off. I label each one as "DOCUMENTS ONLY, NO VALUABLES" and they are on the basement floor. Do not place them on a wooden floor because in a fire they could fall through to the basement and they will not sustain that kind of fall. I have never had to try them in a fire (thank god!!!) but I trust the Sentry brand and I feel our paperwork is as safe as it can be outside of a regular bank vault. I recommend everyone have at least one for those important papers. Don't forget to put the birth certificates in there, too!

Looks sturdy but hopefully never have to find out if it works

All quality

UK buyers note this box is designed for USA A4 hanging files so UK A4 hanging files won't fit. It does take A4 wide paper - see pic (contrary to other reviews) but only takes "letter size" hanging files. In the UK I only found 3 or so outlets on Amazon that sell this size, since most UK outlets sell "A4" size which at 31.5cm wide is 1cm too wide. Otherwise a sturdy box that looks like it will suit our needs.It is quite heavy and with no handle is a bit cumbersome to move around. Unlike other reviewers I'm not bothered about the simplicity of the lock (we didn't get it for security, just for its fire proof capability) or the plastic clasp. The clasp is likely to melt in a fire but that's fine so long as the contents are protected. The supplier also states in the instructions that the box will need prizing apart after a fire but, so long as you register for the warranty, they will replace it for free. So no worries there. The lack of a handle is a bit annoying and the lack of a model that takes 31.5cm wide hanging files is perplexing for a product sold in the EU. Otherwise very happy so far. It also arrived 3 days early so well done SentrySafe!

At first I regretted not buying a smaller safe. The lid on this one was hard to close (until I figured out the trick) and this thing is really heavy. Yes it's fireproof (that's the main point, I know) but yeesh it's bulky! I had a smaller model (same brand) in the past and it was easy to stash on a shelf, pick up and move as required, etc. Inexplicably, SentrySafe makes that next size down just a little too small to fit letter-sized documents (we folded/rolled up a few). I wanted a safe big enough for a document or two, not a whole stash of documents and was annoyed I had to choose between something too small or too big.After a couple weeks, I'm warming up to this big clunky beast now. I've found plenty of important files to put inside it... now that I have such a nice place for them! And I do like being able to fit file folders, not just loose papers. I put my small objects in file folders too so everything is beautifully organized.I may never have a flood or fire (should hope not!) but I enjoy the peace of mind this gives me. And if nothing else, having a safe for any really important documents (eg. passports, wills for myself and parents, etc) makes it easy to find them on the rare occasions I need them. I'm not asking myself "what did I file that under???" and searching through my larger file unit for something I haven't seen in years.Actually, it was the stress of a misplaced passport that prompted me to buy this new safe in the first place (my ex kept our old one. If I'd kept it I wouldn't have had to search my house for my passport during my move! Drat).When this safe arrived, I lugged it into the house and wondered if I'd have trouble getting it up a flight of stairs I'm a petite female and my back isn't great. I was able to carry this upstairs without any grief --just get a good grip and lift with the knees!As for closing the lid, I learned that if I just put my elbow on the lid and put some of my weight onto it, I can snap the lid closed effortlessly. Otherwise the seal is hard to squish. Unless I put my weight on it, I simply can't get the lid closed.It comes with 2 elastic straps that are meant to go on the inside of the lid. Presumably as a place to stash small objects. The straps don't stay in place at all, not even for 2 seconds. I wasn't expecting straps with the product, and don't care. If you are expecting them though... um, don't.I found another use for the straps... so thanks SentrySafe for the perfect patio-umbrella ties!

This is the perfect safe for home or office.Plenty of room to store all important documents and valuables.The only issue is there are no handles to lift and carry the safe. It is quite heavy and some may have trouble moving it.
