It works as described. The instructions and programming the combination are straight forward and easily done in less than five minutes tops. The locking mechanism looks very stout it appears to be casted vs stamped sheet metal like other brands, I was very impressed with that feature. If you're looking for an affordable safe to secure valuables or a firearm. This safe should be considered as a viable option. I own two other small safes which were much more expensive. The First Alert safe is of the same quality and craftsmanship as other top tier safes.

It works as described. The instructions and programming the combination are straight forward and easily done in less than five minutes tops.

The First Alert safe is of the same quality and craftsmanship as other top tier safes.
Pros:
- Easily holds handgun (check for what size you own first though, but it seems like it would hold most sizes smaller than a 50-caliber). :)
- Holds my handgun (in its holster), 2-3 extra clips (probably more), small flashlight, cable for safe (since I don't use it yet), & room to spare
- Feels very sturdy, not light/cheap
- Comes with 2 keys for when the batteries need to be replaced, or if you forget your code
- Very easy to set your own code (I believe you can choose between 4-8 digits, so you can customize for how many digits you want to enter...obviously, the more digits you use, the more difficult it is for someone to just guess the combination)
Cons:
- This doesn't apply to the safe itself, but the batteries that came with it ended up corroding & leaking clear liquid & brown goo after only 6 months. I suggest getting your own batteries (the ones that came with it were the brand Precell or a similar name, I think)
**Update** the provided batteries lasted 3.5 mos. with daily usage. Replaced with higher quality batteries. We’ll see if they make it longer.
