HWL2724229 - SAFE,FIRE/WTR PF,CHEST

Solid, well built, keyed and sufficient for our needs. It's heavy but it's from concrete, not thick steel. It claims to be fire resistant, water resistant but you cannot expect miracles. I'd prefer a lighter "safe" to carry out of our house in case of a fire or zombie apocalypse evacuation. The weight of the safe does not give me the illusion of impregnability. We have this to store our passports, wills, deeds, automobile titles and the like. We'll keep our gold bars, magic rings and plutonium reserves in our imaginary subterranean vault. Not bad, should suffice. Oh yes. You will be surprised by the stench when you open this. Drag it into the garage to off-gas for a while. Wiccans may want to try a cleansing spell or get a priest to perform an exorcism. It's bad, but only for a few days. Don't open it in the house for a while.

Item arrived quickly, Its fairly heavy for its size seems well made. This is not really a safe since the latch mechanism is not heavy duty but we purchased this with the recommendation of our attorney to store our important documents including our will and passports in case of a fore and easy access to those documents should we not be available. You are instructed to leave the box laying flat and the weight of the lid making a good seal which is ok if you can keep in laying down and not standing on edge. The interior size is ok will fit the width of a legal size papers. .

I bought this Honeywell 1114-LP2488-1224 through Amazon on March 14, 2025. On March 4, 2026, I emailed the Honeywell customer service because one of the latches broke. My understanding by reading the warranty is that Honeywell covers this for one year. Unfortunately, I have no replies from Honeywell. Because Amazon only allows returns/exchanges on this produce for one month, I'm not sure what my recourse is. While the safe is satisfactory for what I store in it, the latches are cheap plastic that break easily. You can see in the picture the latch on the left will not close. How to get Honeywell to make good on this??

How well will this product protect my valuables in a fire? And, is it really waterproof? I don't know. And I hope I'll never have a fire to find out. It's heavy (over 40 lbs.). But it's not so heavy that most adults won't be able to retrieve it and take it with them. The interior and exterior of the case are made of plastic. And the silver-colored exterior latches are plastic too, and look cheap. But of course, it's not the plastic that's going to protect my valuables in a fire. That's the job of the heavy concrete-like material between the walls of plastic. And since I have no intention of testing this device to see if it works, I have to rely on the industry rating, as well as the reputation of the company that made it. Therefore, my five-star rating is based only on what I can see, and not how well it protected my valuables in a fire. Features: 1. The heavy lid is damped so it won't slam shut on your fingers. 2. It locks with a key, and I'm glad it does. I don't want to rely on a battery-operated keypad to open it. Two keys are included. 3. It has a handle that makes it easier to carry. Interior dimensions (per Honeywell): 3.8 inches High x 14.8 inches Wide x 12 inches Deep. Country of origin: No, it's not made in the USA. It's made in China (it clearly says so on the box).

I like it. It's heavy but it looks well made and should do the job. You are forced to use the lock to shut it, which is a pain if you don't want to lock it, and also makes loosing the keys a concern because it would be hard to get open again. (You can order another set of 2 keys from the company if you provide the key number, proof of purchase and ID, and it might take a long time.) It also lacks a good handle to lift the top lid up and I doubt that the two latches on the front actually do anything other than get in the way. Be sure you can move it to wherever you want, because it is heavier than you might expect.

Fire and water protection for our documents and small valuables. Fits under the bed. Interior can fit a laptop and legal size documents. Heavy (about 40 pounds) but has a handle for carrying if needed. Clamp lock with key. Straight forward. Definitely worth the price. The lid portion could use somewhere to put your fingers when opening and closing. Hopefully we never have to find out how well it does what it is advertised to do.

Does what it’s supposed to do. Heavy and robust.

The only option for locking this safe is a key and these keys are cheap and flimsy. After barely six months use, one of the keys has snapped off in the lock and now my passports and papers are locked in and I will have to call a locksmith. Good job I'm not travelling anytime soon or it could be a real problem. Very poor given the quality of the overall item seems decent enough. Strange to skimp on such a critical element.
