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

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!

The Amazon Basics Steel Security Safe is reliable and easy to use. With an electronic keypad, it's perfect for securing cash, jewelry, and important documents. Its compact size fits well in small spaces. Highly recommended for anyone needing a sturdy and convenient safe for their valuables. Great value for money.

I was looking for an efficient, durable and cost effective safe with a keypad and this safe really met my expectations! Great quality, easy to program and perfect size! I would say the size is equivalent to your standard hotel safe, maybe even a little bigger. I would highly recommend this item and definitely would purchase again.

Pros - solid feeling, not too big so can fit under bed or on a shelf, allows for bolting to floor or wall, easy to open (once you figure out the trick, see Cons below), interior easily will hold proudly 4” worth of 8.5”x11” paper lying flat plus several bulking items (think jewelry boxes, hand guns, other valuables). I saw the photos of it surviving someone’s fire, and it looks like it would last a fire awhile but because there are holes for mounting, you might want to get a fireproof pouch to put inside as well or fill the holes. Due to the holes, definitely not waterproof but it might be enough to fill holes with caulk?Cons- took awhile to figure out the code thing… the trick is to follow instructions and when it mentions press #, the trick is to press AND HOLD # (which wasn’t mentioned). After that it is easy. The safe probably could be broken into with medium effort, but for theives looking for a quick pick, they’d probably take a pass especially if it’s bolted in. Probably not fully fireproof, and definitely not water proof, but work around might be doable (see Pros above).

this safe is so easy to set up and works perfectly and is so well made. Thank you for making this great product

This is just what we needed to store a few things. This item is thicker and heavier than our last one. Also, having back-up keys is a life-saver ! Great product! We received this item quickly as well!

I needed an inexpensive safe for home office use. After comparing several different safes, I decided on this Amazon Basic Safe because of pricing. I'm so glad I did! The interior is much bigger than I imagined. The felt like bottom is a plus for jewelry items, and the set-up was a breeze. I like the digital entry and having the key back-up is a great feature in case of battery failure or misplaced code. I highly recommend this safe. It does the job and saves you money in the process. Another HR for Amazon Basic products!

AmazonBasics Security Safe 0.5 Cubic FeetGeneral:I purchased the safe from Amazon Warehouse Deals (the item was backordered and I wanted to get something in place before traveling). I couldn't even tell that it had been "refurbished" or "used". All of the necessary pieces were included-2 keys, instruction manual, 4 anchors and the safe itself.If you are concerned about the safe not being fire rated, just buy a fire resistant bag and call it good.Install:I had zero issues with the installation. I ended up only using two of the drywall anchors that were included. I was able to use 3" lag bolts into a stud for the other two. Overkill? Probably, but that safe isn't coming out without the stud attached to it. I read a few reviews of users saying, "the included anchors didn't fit through the hole of the safe". That is by design. Simply take the anchor assembly apart, slide the bolt head and washer through the safe and reattach on the other side. Just an FYI, the included anchors are designed to be used in masonry or brick but will work in drywall. If you just plan on mounting it to the wall, go grab a few carriage bolts with some spring toggles and you should be good to go. Mounting to the floor? Get a lag bolt with a good "bite" to it. Sink those suckers in and you are ready to go.Usage:Keypad was easy to program and the backup keys worked great. Things that beep drive me nuts so I went ahead and got rid of the pcb mounted speaker immediately. Simply unscrew the two phillips head screws, disconnect power (I might as well tell people to play it safe) and pull the the PCB assembly. You have a couple options here.1. Poke a hole through the speaker (long cylindrical piece making the obnoxious sound).2. Put a glue or epoxy into the speaker.3. Put a small piece of duct tape or electrical tape covering the hole (if you want to have the option of removing it at some point).4. Use a soldering iron and desolder the connection points (I am a bit of a perfectionist and like things to have a clean appearance).5. Take a pair of pliers and rip the darn thing off.I have had zero troubles with the safe of the operation of the safe so far.Pros:*Easy to install.*Secures to wall very securely.*Piece of mind living in an apartment that valuables can't just get swiped.*Good size, which makes this easy to stash away in a closet or inconspicuous location.*The two shelf spaces. It makes organizing the safe much easier.*Heck of alot better than my old "safe" that I could open with the end of my fingernail clippers.Cons:*Beeper is annoying.*Beeper is annoying.*None.Summary:You are getting what you pay for here. Sure, it isn't Fort Knox but it will stop or slow down would be robbers/roommates/junkies/maintenance men with sticky fingers etc. I plan on buying a couple more just because, I am an American, and that's how we role.Enjoy!
