The safe came with damaged edges, bulging outside of the case, cracked plastic surrounding the keypad. Additionally, the unlocking handle feels flimsy as it will break if pushed hard. I noticed similar reviews outlined and had assumed Sentry Safe would have corrected these faults.

Seems to be a high quality safe for storing my important documents. I only hope I don’t have problems with the keypad but am fairly certain it will last as I’m not one to open frequently. I do like the ability to add additional codes which should afford flexibility between family members if needed.

Loved my old safe with only a key but decided to go digital with key. I am not disappointed! The door opens smoothly, the inside is very roomy. I love the filing drawer and I organized all my paperwork for my family. The only disappointment was that the internal drawer lock is flimsy, and only one side connects. So I can’t use the lock part. But having a drawer is nice

The safe is the right size for my needs, easy to set up and easy to operate. My issues are with the bolt down instructions and the position of the rear ports. No instructions in the manual for the SFW205EVB rear bolt down option. When I drilled through the center of the top right port, it came out inside in the drawer slots to close to the side of the enclosure, no room for a washer or the head of the bolt much less a wrench to work the bolt.

We got the safe to store original trust documents, at the suggestion of our advisor. It is very sturdy, very heavy. The set up and registration instructions are clear. The Sentry folks' follow-up on line has been quick and helpful. Should we have a fire or flood, I'll repost to let you know what survived.

A safe like this is something I have wanted for a long time. Pretty happy with the quality. It did arrive with a dented corner I found after I removed the packaging. I didn't feel it was bad enough to warrant sending it back for a new one. Where we put the safe the dent is not noticeable and does not affect the function or usefulness of the safe. I bought a safe, not a show piece.

This is the second sentry safe of this type I’ve purchased. I love the simplicity and durability, and has a pretty good fire rating. The only thing(s) I don’t like, is there’s no secondary option to open the safe, so if the key pad goes out there’s no other options to open the safe. Most other safes I own have the secondary key option. The other issue is the lack of shelving. Other than that I’m pretty happy with the safe

I think it’s a fine safe but I think the handle could be made to exert just a little more force before purposefully slipping on the actuator. I know this is to protect the components of the actuator and I know, my safe being water resistant, seals tighter than most, but I find that it’s better if I use one have to depress the handle and the other hand to push in the door slightly.

The safe was easy to get set up, has plenty of space in it and the moveable shelves in it are very useful. It is our second Sentry Safe and additional piece of mind. Also spent less on it than we thought we would have to for a waterproof and fireproof safe.

We like the safe very much and it will serve us very well. However I have one very big complaint. THE accessories are way over priced. This is leading us not to buy any. And would not recommend anyone to buy any Accessories For that reason. Sorry just my opinion.
