Amazon Basics Steel Security Safe and Lock Box with Electronic Keypad, for Cash, Jewelry, Documents, Black, 0.5 Cubic Feet, 13.8" W x 9.8" D x 9.8" H

This drawer safe, like all similar safes, is really more of a security box than a real safe. That can also be said for safes many times more expensive, though. A burglar could take the whole safe and open it later. It includes bolts for fastening to the drawer bottom, but in most cases the entire drawer could be taken, so I probably won't even use those. For what it is, it seems sturdy and serves its purpose. It's also very easy to use. I bought it because a family member has the slightly larger model and is pleased with it.The lock has been updated so that it's more difficult to pick and the batteries seem secure. It's easy to reset the number code and the master code, which is a second number code for opening the safe. Set your code by pressing the reset button beside the batteries and enter three to eight numerals, then the # key. To reset the master or second code, press 0 twice, then the reset button, then the other code you want and the # key. It might come with a preset master code so be sure to enter two new codes of your own.To initially open the safe, remove the keyhole cover, insert one of the keys, and turn the key and the knob toward each other. Then open and insert the batteries and set both your number codes. Test before closing the safe. Directions are included. It can then be opened with either of your number codes or with the two keys in case the batteries die or you forget your codes.This fits in my nightstand drawer but is too tall to fit in my kitchen drawers. The height is about 4-5/8". The inside is large enough to hold two compact pistols, jewelry, small tablet, or similar items. The depth is reduced by the thickness of the locking mechanism on the inside of the lid, though, so thick items won't fit.This should be enough security to keep out young kids, friends of friends, or any visitors with sticky fingers or who are overly nosy. it probably won't protect things from a burglary when you're not home. The larger models will bolt to the floor or wall framing and would be a more secure, but this one conveniently fits in a drawer. I had a similar one that cost over twice as much but I like this one better so far.

I’m really happy with this purchase! The safe is compact but has enough space for my essentials like passports, small valuables, and some cash. It feels sturdy and the locking mechanism works smoothly. Setup was easy and it came with clear instructions. Great value for the price, especially for basic home use. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a simple and reliable safe! By the way, I just bought another one, the 0.5 cubic feet model, for my sister, since I've been very satisfied with my first purchase of the 0.7 cubic feet one.

The design is straight forward and easy to understand. If I needed another I would buy this again. Be sure to bolt is down. For what it is intended to do, it does well.

It is not fire-rated, so please don't buy this if you're looking for that. Spend another $30 on something else.That said, the quality is adequate for me; the security on this safe is good enough to protect our documents in a secure location. It seems durable enough for every day use but would definitely be opened easily by a crowbar or something.

Very secure safe for my personal documents. It isn’t super heavy and was easy to tuck away and hide in my house. A thief could carry off the whole safe, but it does come with a bolt to secure it if you want. Basically you can bolt it in the floor or a shelf. It comes with a backup key in case you forget your passcode too. This is exactly like the safes in hotels and cruise ships but bigger. I like that it has a shelf inside. That way I can keep documents separate from jewelry boxes. Great value for the money and gives me peace of mind.

We really like this new fireproof box. It feels a bit flimsy but does the job. The weight is great middle ground, not too heavy. We obviously haven’t tested the fireproof abilities but just trust that it is😂

This is a fantastic safe. Took me 5 minutes to read the instructions and 5 more to get everything ready. I installed it in a little cabinet and looks fantastic. Feels very strong and has multiple ways to unlock it in case you forget your code or run out of batteries. The price is amazing as well.I bought the smaller version and it has plenty of room to add sheets, social security card, passports and other documents.Definitely worth it!

Does exactly what it's supposed to do - store important materials, away from prying eyes or securing them. Bought one a couple of years ago, very impressed with the built quality, the sleekness, the overall value for money, and the capacity. When I needed another one a few days ago, I knew exactly which safe to order. Setting up a pin to open the door was easy, especially with the simple to follow instructions in the booklet that comes in the packaging. I use the pin feature to access one of the safes, while only using the key for the other. They have served me well so far. You won't be disappointed getting one of these.
