Honeywell Safes & Door Locks LHLP1103G 30 Minute Fire Safe Waterproof Safe Box Chest with Carry Handle, Medium, 1103, Black, 7.3 litre

I felt that it was a solid piece and will keep the necessary things protected.

The box arrived VERY banged up and ripped, but the safe inside seems fine. No cracks or issues opening/closing. The keys feel a little cheap, so I would be gentle unlocking it. But the safe is VERY heavy for the size and seems sturdy. More than enough room inside for a stack of papers, IDs, passwords, etc. But the size is SLIGHTLY too small for papers to lay flat, so they will be slightly bowed. Overall it's as expected.

Probably more my mistake than the box's. I wanted a portable safe that I could use to secure my money as a traveling vendor. I loved my old safe until the lock jammed and I found out with one flick of a screwdriver I could open it. So I was looking for a stronger locking mechanism. This one is better, but I was still able to break in when I was having problems with the key turning properly. Having the key turn easily has been a problem for me with this safe.I would put up with the weight, it is VERY heavy if you have to carry it around, if it had a more secure lock. I will use it for now but will keep looking for something more secure. Fire and Water resistance are not as important to me as security. If you don't need to move it a lot and are using it secure papers not money, it is probably an excellent safe. It seems to seal tight to prevent water access and all that weight must be great for fire protection.

I like the way it seals when you close the lid. I keep it in my non fireproof safe for valuables. It's not huge but it's beefy. Eat your Wheaties before you spend time yarding it around. It's got some weight. I love it and it works perfectly for us....thanks....JT

We ordered a Model 1103, as described above, because it claims to hold letter-sized paper flat. Honeywell, right? Reputable company, isn't it? The safe had over 1300 reviews, with a 4.5 overall rating! Wow! We just got it delivered today. Here are my immediate impressions. I strongly recommend reading them all before hitting that order button.The Good: This thing is built like a tank, and is remarkably heavy, but the outside and inside linings are almost entirely made of plastic. This is somehow not reassuring for fire resistance, but they claim it is. Should you trust them? Your decision. The latches seem very secure, and the lock would not be easily pried open.The bad: Here is the first head-scratcher: When we put our will in, it bent slightly at the edges. (See photo for visual evidence.) I measured it, and the interior depth is 8 3/8 inches, a good 1/8 in. narrower than standard paper. Any idiot would say it should be probably 1/8 in. wider than the paper, so it's 1/4 in. too narrow.Why, I ask myself, would anyone deliberately build a tank that isn't quite big enough to correctly hold what it was designed to hold? I can't come up with any logical reason whatsoever. It seems like a small thing. Sure, you can put the papers in with a slight bend, but that reduces the effective capacity, as well as forcing your valuable papers to assume a permanent bend.I went back and looked at the description on the Amazon page. It gives two different external dimensions: At the top (notice these are direct quotes): "Item Dimensions LxWxH 12.4 x 15.9 x 6.5 inches"In the About This Item section: "The exterior Dimensions are 6.6 in H x 16.0 in w x 12.6 in D"OK, they're close, but this doesn't bode well for the veracity of anything else on the page, does it?More deviously, the only internal dimensions EVER mentioned anywhere on the page are way at the bottom, in the "From the Manufacturer" section (again, direct quote from the page): "Interior Dimensions: 3.8"H x 14.8"W x 12"D " Cool, 12 inches is far wider than standard paper, right? Who would have noticed that this is for the 1104 model, not the 1103 that is being sold to us?THEN, I looked at reviews mentioning "paper lies flat", and found a stack of other Amazon reviews stating exactly the same thing, that the papers don't lie flat as claimed. Dumb me, I just trusted the star reviews on this one. I usually look at the comments. Never again will I not look at the comments.THEN, I read in the manual for our product that you have to open the safe for 30 minutes EVERY WEEK to let it air out, and they don't guarantee against interior moisture! I looked on the Amazon page again, and found more reviews about papers mildewing in the safe. Again, my bad for not reading this sooner. What the hell? How many people are going to put on their calendar every week to air out their document safe? Really?So, this really isn't a safe safe, after all, is it? You're trusting your most valuable, one of a kind documents to a box that can't even keep out moisture?What the hell, Honeywell? You are lying through your teeth, selling us an undersized and poorly designed product. Since it is the Honeywell store selling it, the company clearly was aware.So, don't say you weren't warned. I'm shipping this 27 pound piece of misadvertising back.

I bought this as a Christmas present for an older Grandchild. He was thrilled with it. Told me it wasn’t something he would have thought of but will definitely put it to good use. Began telling me what he planned to put inside when he returned home. It turned out to be a great gift idea!

Purchased this safe to hold my important documents and hard drives. The waterproof/fireproof aspects haven’t been tested for me yet (and hopefully never will), but this lockbox seems really sturdy. It’s very heavy and the locking mechanisms seem durable. Only complaint is that you can’t lay a full piece of normal-sized paper flat inside.
