SentrySafe Black Fireproof Safe with Digital Push Button Keypad, Home Safe For Money, Documents, and other Valuables, 1.23 Cubic Feet, SF123ES

This is a good, sturdy safe. It’s a good size for securing several items. Along with my important documents I will also use it to store several handguns. The safe can be secured to a wood or masonry floor via 2 lag bolts and masonry anchors that are included, although you will have to drill the holes through the bottom of the safe. Only a problem if you lack the proper drill and bit. I looked into a variety of safes of several different brands and concluded that Sentry offers the most for the money. Many are not fireproof at all, and those that are fireproof are not rated for as long or as high a temperature as the Sentry safes. Now, I did experience 2 minor issues: first, the delivery information stated that the safe would be delivered inside my house into the room I want it placed, and that I would be notified by text ½ hour before delivery on the specific day that is given when the order is placed. While UPS delivered it a day early, there was no advance notification and the driver merely left it at my door. He hadn’t driven off yet, so I told him that delivery instructions specifically said delivered into the home, and he stated that it is ILLEGAL for him to enter my house! So expect to have yours left on your porch and carry into your house yourself. And it is heavy! Second, it arrived with a dent on one corner. Oddly, the shipping box was undamaged and the safe is packed in styrofoam. It must have been dented before it was packed at the factory. I called Amazon customer service and told them that I would prefer not to send it back, but would like a rebate on the price equal to what I would have gotten by purchasing a scratch-and-dent item from Amazon Warehouse. A couple of photos were emailed and the rep quickly quoted me a refund amount that was most satisfactory and it was issued as an Amazon Gift Card. All-in-all a good experience. You can find safes for less money, but you won’t find any that offer as much protection.

I am very happy with this particular Sentry model. I just received it last week via UPS, and the UPS driver had to push it in to my home, or actually from his truck with his legs because of its weight (over 90 pounds). The only negative thing I would say about this model is that its handle appears and feels kind of on the cheaper side on account of it being made of, I think, plastic. But it is not like a gorilla or a professional wrestler is going to be accessing it anytime in the future, or at least trying to discover and capture its contents, so I guess I can live with it being the price I paid for it. I read the other comments before finally deciding on this model and noticed a couple of negative comments from consumers regarding this feature, and all I have to say is that you get what it is you pay for in the end. I priced a couple Sentry Safe models with metal handles, and they each were almost $1000, or just under that at $800-$900. All and all though, like I already stated, I am satisfied with its features and roomy interior, up until now anyway. Also, the shelf inside is made of plastic, which was a bit disappointing to me, since I purchased a smaller Sentry Safe through Amazon.com in February 2013, the X105, and its shelf was made of the same metal with which the safe itself was constructed. I was expecting the same kind of shelf, but I have to remember that the first safe I purchased back in the earlier part of this year wasn't to protect against fire. This one is made to withstand a fire so maybe that has something to do with its shelf being made of the plastic-type material. I don't know, since I am not a fireman nor even know anything whatsoever about what kind of material is best, when it comes to protecting an interior's belongings from fire or flood! I decided to purchase this safe only because I needed the extra security room for my valuables. I already had filled the first one up, being that it only has 1.0 cubic foot of space. In fact, I might need to purchase a third one soon, if my purchasing habits keep going the way they've been going lately. In the near future, you'll probably notice an additional review posted on a bigger more expensive one. Probably one manufactured by Sentry. I highly recommend this safe by the way, as well as the Sentry 1.0 cubic foot X105 if you're SentrySafe X105 Security Safe, 1.0 Cubic Feet, Black looking for one a bit smaller.

For the price I paid, just over $200, I really wasn’t sure what I would get. Would it be a cheap piece of garbage? I am happy to say that it is a very high quality product. It is heavy which is a good thing when talking about a safe to keep your documents and valuables. It has a surprising amount of space inside plus shelves and pockets to organize. It has four large stainless steel bolts in the door. In fact, my only suggestion to make it better would be to add rubber feet to prevent it from sliding. I am not a rich man but what I have I want to keep. This safe will definitely help me do that.

The safe seems good but I was expecting a bolt down kit and a light inside. Not the case.

Heavy duty- it does weight approx 60 lbs So decide where you’re going to put. Get help it’s not the easiest to move. Great Safe and easy to use

Push button only (a key would have been nice as a backup) but i really can't complain about anything. It works very well. Not very heavy, so i recommend bolting it in place

The safe is a good size for documents, jewelry and other valuables which need to be secured. The safe is very easy to install and get operational—a matter of 15 minutes with a proper drill

It is a good one but not really spacious.

Very satisfied

Resonable value works ok

Very easy to use

Dear [Customer Service], I recently purchased one of your safes with the expectation that it would provide secure storage for my valuable items, including important paperwork. However, I am deeply concerned about the potential damage to my documents due to the humidity and persistent odor emanating from the safe. If my paperwork were to sustain damage because of these issues, it would be a significant loss for me. I urgently request that you investigate this matter and provide a solution to prevent any further damage to my belongings. I appreciate your immediate attention to this matter.
