The safe works perfectly but I didn't realize how hard it would be to move without any handles. The outside surface is actually slippery which makes moving it even more difficult. I don' t know if I really like it now that I know it is tough to move. As for recommending this safe to others I can only say "maybe." I will say yes to the question below but I say it with hesitation. Any chance you sell handles for this unit?

I just hope, if ever needed, that it actually works. I read the reviews before purchasing, and I agree. It is NOT a safe. The locking mechanism is very flimsy. And the unit is heavy and awkward. Definitely needs a handle or two. But I bought it to keep valuable papers safe in the event of a house fire. So I trust I am secure in that aspect.

This safe has taken the place of multiple other containers. I really like how much it holds and the built in tray for the hanging folders is great to have too. I wish it had a Pocket built into the front or back of the inside, or even the top to put small things in like spare car keys, just so they aren't in the bottom or causing bulges in the hanging folders. I would also like to have some kind of edge on it to lift with because I don't always get into it where I store it.

I also bought a small one and the sm2 key opens it also. I could not hardly believe it! This is the worst thing I can think of? Unbelievable! That a Company that makes Safes. Would be like this? Now I have to Waste my precious time to mess with it and get it right! This is Terrible!!

I have owed a similar safe box for many years also made by Sentry. This model appeared to be sturdy and of high quality but the trouble began Christmas day. Apparently, we misplaced the keys while opening the present. (They where found the next day across the room). Sentry's web-site lets you order new keys for $15 but it was my opinion, the safe never had any keys in it. I wrote that to the company and they were kind enough to respond the next day and promised to send me a new set of keys for free. Which they did. In the mean time, having found the original keys, we were unpleasantly surprised to find the keys did not work in the lock. For some reason, they would only insert about a third of the way and yet they still turned the locking mechanism. I returned the safe to Walmart the next day. I have since ordered and new safe model H2300 and received it yesterday . Although it is not the same size as the original, we are VERY happy with it. 5 stars for the new one.

When moving I packed the safe in a box with cushioning and the movers dropped the box and the outside if the safe cracked in several places. The keys are thin and break easily. Broke a key in the lock and had to break open safe. Just not a good overall value for the money.

the lock and key didn't work. extremely heavy, it's actually a small safe, that should be put in the description since "file" makes you think you can carry it. you can't. on the bright side, Walmart was quick to credit the return, including shipping, since the product was defective.

Large with lots of space. File folders for nicely. I haven't had a fire so I can speak to how it holds up then. Only down sides I have is that the key doesn't want to go in and you have to fight it a bit, and it's heavy and slick so moving it can be a pain though I guess that can help prevent it being stolen.

we can put our important papers in it. Only thing I would add would be easy handles on side. And I wonder how the moisture barrier works as to why not to put some valuables because they might be damaged. won't the important papers be damaged by the moisture?

Even in this digital age there are important documents like auto titles, wills, birth certificates, etc. that you need to keep safe. Our document file is big enough for all of these, yet not too large to keep in an unobtrusive place. I appreciate having this fireproof /waterproof box, as I've had a couple of friends lose their papers to house fire or water damage. This box may help us avoid that hassle.
