I purchased the Sentry Business Fire Safe Model OA5848 after doing quite a bit of internet research.
My use for this safe is personal and business document storage, storage of an external hard drive with all my backup data, and a couple of other small and valuable items.
I received my safe delivery a few daysearlier than quoted- the fast delivery time was a definite plus!
This safe was easy to set up and use. It came with two moisture-absorbing packs from the manufacturer. I removed these packs and "recharged" them as they had noticibly absorbed moisture left from the manufacturing process. I live in a desert area, so ambient moisture will not be a big issue. If you live in a humid area, you need to make sure high levels of humidity won't build up.
One of the reasons I purchased this safe was the fact that it is 2.0 cubic feet- most safes in this price range are much smaller. I needed room for document storage and small items, and this model fits the bill by allowing for an area designed for hanging file folders. In addition, a lockable pull-out drawer is included. This drawer is handy for items like passports, credit cards, firearms, etc. It is also wide enough to fit my laptop computer.
The safe comes with a set of bolts if you want to bolt the unit to the floor. It weighs around 200 lbs, so keep that in mind for moving and other issues.
I am very pleased with this safe- as far as price is concerned, I am completely sure this is the absolute best price online, and will definitely beat any price you would get from a locksmith or small safe dealer. You can't go wrong with Authority Safes- when I called to confirm my order (they take paypal or credit cards) they answered the phone right away and had all the details of my transaction available.
Good luck and good security!
