Honeywell 3040D Digital Security Box

I got this safe in the hopes of using it to store my sidearm when not on duty. However, I quickly discovered that if you turn the knob hard enough, you can simply force it open. It is not a security safe - if you're trying to restrict access to low security items, it might work; but since it cannot be bolted down, and can be easily be forced open, I am hard pressed to even call it a safe. It's more a latching box.

Perfect for college dorm room

I got the lock box and immediately had problems with the electronic mechanism. Sometimes it worked...sometimes it didn't. Ans then after about 3 months or so my roommate bumped into the coffee table it was sitting on and when it fell (less than 2 feet on to carpet) it broke open completely disabling its ability to lock with or without the key. I was there so I am sure of the circumstances. Worth $44.00+, not in my book. I would probably have been better off or at least as well off with a cheap sheet metal cash box and a 3 ring lock! I used it to keep my controlled medications in. In the end, I found they were just as safe in a shoe box!

I have owned this product for about 4 months now. I treat it very well. It sits in my closet on a shelf. About 3 months after having it the Keypad shorts out. I push in my 4 digit code and it does not unlock. Instead the inidicator light starts having a blink attack. Then I have to hit it with my fist in order for it to work properly and then i type in my code again and it works. Plus, for some misterious magical reason my key no longer will turn the lock to manually open the safe. I use this safe every day. I am now waiting for the day when hitting my safe doesnt make it work right and I wont be able to get into my own safe. Then I will be the one breaking into it. Trust me, buy something else.
