SONGMICS Safe Box, 2.2 Cubic Feet, Security Safe, Dual Locking System, with Keypad, Manual Override, Adjustable Divider, Hidden Compartment, Anti-Theft, for Home Office Hotel, Black ULBX120B01

This safe is exactly what I was looking for and couldn’t find in any other brand. The only thing that would’ve made it better is if it was fire and waterproof, but I purchased fireproof bags to solve that. The locks seem very strong and the set up was very simple.

I was excited to get this safe. Until I got to inspecting it. It is heavy. 96lbs or something close. The front is solid and thick. You can feel it. The sides however are super thin. If you apply enough pressure to the sides you can feel it flex. Knocking on the side just makes me sad. When I was 10 years old if there was something in this safe that I wanted and I was a little P***k and had some basic tools, I could have gotten into it in prob 30minutes. Now I could get into it in prob 3 with the right tools. I would have sent it back if I didn’t live on the third floor and just too lazy to move it to my car in the heat of AZ. The interior is cool. Cheap material. But soft to the touch. The inner lock box is made out of the same plastic that every clip you have ever shattered is made out of. Wouldn’t stand up to a butter knife. It’s there just to keep eyes off of whatever if opened in the presence of another person. But if that person wants in they will be able to with a little effort. The beeps of the keypad are not able to be silenced. Which sucks because it’s high pitched and wakes up my 1 year old. LED inside is not very bright and was hanging off the door when I opened it and only secure when I added double side tape. The hidden compartment is cool and big enough for two full size hand guns possible a third. If you are trying to protect you goods from kids it’s great as long as they are not little determined s***T’s with no fear of consequences and have access to power tools or a blow torch. If your place catches fire and that safe is in it with your stuff inside, it will burn way before you even know the place is on fire. If you need protection for really valuable items from professional thieves or even crack heads, then don’t buy this safe. It and your stuff will be gone or just your stuff and you will be left with a $300 box with a hole in the side caused by one of your own tools. I’m pretty sure if you spill something on it it should be fine. If it gets submerged then everything in it will be as well. The mechanism has that hollow clinky sound to it. And it feels a little lose to the touch. As if the dial is not solid and fused to the bolt mechanism fully. You can turn left and right about 1/6” with way before it engages. Take this for what you will. Just know that I’m a very detailed individual that knows quality and I also know poor quality. This is in the lesser middle area. Could be a good safe if most of these things were corrected. But who is going to do that? Not me. The keys look cool but are cheap. Non magnetic which kind of sucks for hiding purposes. I’m waiting for the chrome paint to chip off. If this company upped their game just a little bit they could compete with the more reputable manufactures. Until then this is just a visual deterrent and nothing more.

This is to me, a very quality safe. I like everything about it, except that you always need one key to open it. It would be nice if you could use the code only. Besides that, I feel my important things are very safe.

Decent security features. Takes a moment of reading the instructions to get a handle on programming the keypad. Make sure to change the password and the administrator password. The computer records the date and time and what password was used every time the safe is opened. Good to use if you share the save with a confidant like your spouse while still seeing when they access it. Surprisingly light for 2 people to carry off, absolutely miserable for 1 person to carry off. The mailman left this at the end of my driveway when he delivered it. Definitely bolt this to something heavy with the included fasteners and if you don't, put a GPS transmitter inside if it gets carried off during a burglary. Anyone who steals this and has no background in lock picking is going to have a hell of a time trying to get it open. They don't make lockpicks for this type of lock that are readily available and you have to fashion the tool to pick it out of home made parts and have considerable skill and STILL need the passcode or second key to open it. Pretty good alternative to the similar Tiger King design and the brand is almost impossible to find locksmith reviews online tearing it apart, though there are a few on the Tiger King safes. Safe is not sold as waterproof or fireproof, so don't expect those features. Get a fireproof/waterproof safe if that is a big concern and don't get the electronics wet. Still able to open with the second key if the battery goes out and has a charging pack to recharge externally if batteries inside die. Takes AA batteries.

Though the directions to the operation of this safe seem complicated at first glance, it is really simple to lock and unlock. It seems a well-made safe & quite secure.The only thing I do not like is that you MUST use a key each time you open it and that this keys seem flimsy & poorly made. I am afraid that they will break with frequent use.

like the safe -- you can put in your open code and you still need the key to open the safe -- has some good options

We’re pleased! Instructions were a little hard to understand, but otherwise safe is doing well so far.

You can’t get into it easy, you have to use a key and combination
