I received a Christmas gift for my husband. The product had broken when it was opened. You can return this package although it needed to be repackaged. He also destroyed his packaging when he opened it. Replacement was not an option. Now the product is unavailable, which is even more disappointing. The option to speak with the manufacturer was not presented, and returning was very inconvenient, so my husband has decided to keep his damaged Christmas gift and attempt to clean it up himself. When you purchase something new, you frequently expect it to arrive looking new. I would have contemplated purchasing such an expensive gift with delivery from a local store. I was disappointed with the appearance and having to pay full price for an item that should have been in a discount store based solely on its delivered appearance.

This product is good. My husband installed it in my bathroom for me to put my expensive jewelry in. I needed something that was quick, simple, and convenient. The fingerprint option is very good. It functions extremely quickly, and it is able to enter and exit quickly. I have used it daily for two years and have not had to change the batteries. It comes with keys in case you encounter issues with the finger print reader, which is good for justincase. I use magnetic hooks to organize my necklaces and bracelets. It is really very convenient. I highly recommend this for keeping your jewelry safe and for a way to access them and wear them on a regular basis.
This wall safe is nice. Fingerprint unlocking is very quick and handy. The only negative aspect to mention is that the center shelf is mostly filled with the safe's locking mechanism projecting into it when closed.
I love the easy and quick access and easy to install. I was very impressed by the quality of the product.
Great product and customer service.
My only complaint is that the locking mechanism takes up a lot of space on the middle shelf. It needs to go somewhere.

This is an initial review. The safe arrived in perfect condition yesterday and was delivered. You should be ready to bolt this safe to the floor or the wall. It is heavy when the door is open. The shelves are easily removable if needed. The gun rack on the door has four positions, so it would avoid hitting the shelf inside. I removed it and added Velcro holders for the handguns. I planned to add some sort of light. I have not attempted this yet but I ordered a motion activated LED strip. When I tried to program fingerprints it has opened every time I have tried. An individual bedside safe would be faster in an emergency. I believe it is because you must push a button to wake up the fingerprint reader before entering your fingerprint. Turn the handle to allow us to merely set your finger on a bedside safe or a locker and it pops open. I am pleased with the added time of a couple of seconds or so. I always judge my purchases on the basis of if I would purchase this again, and the answer is yes. If any difficulties arise, I will update this review.
I love the entry in the fingerprint area. If you are looking for a fireproof safe, then this is not for you. It is very sturdy, and I am confident no one will break into it without some type of cutting tool and help. The only issue with safe is the third shelf. The program fingerprints was very easy.
I was looking for something similar. The safe is light but durable. I am searching for a safe I could get out of my basement without the use of a crane. I am so excited. I strongly recommend bolting the safe to a wall or floor because the door is heavy and could cause imbalance causing the safe to tip Fingerprint recognition also works great.
There is plenty of space for my guns, ammunition, and some other things. I will have to rearrange things a bit when I get the next two guns I want, but I still think that everything will fit. I enjoy that I can understand it in about one second. I have children, and wanted everything to stay safe. I also like knowing that for home security reasons, myself or my wife can get into it quickly. The only downside I see is someone with a crowbar could get into it. While I am home, I do not worry about that unless I go on vacation, or something similar, so I would not see that as theft proof. I have obviously not tried to break into my own safe. However, it's apparent from a distance. I never go on vacation. I think that it will be perfect for me. It is excellent for the price and safe.
The person wrote, 'I received delivery three days ago. It was simple to schedule, and arrived on time, in excellent condition. The driver was excellent to deal with and helpful. The safe was packed well to protect it during shipping, and arrived in perfect condition. The quality of construction, fit, and finish is very good. The biometric scanner did not come in the factory default mode, which was alright because it gave me a chance to use the emergency keys, included with the safe, for first time entry. They are simple to use. The process of programming a scanner is simple. I am pleased that I purchased this large safe. I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend this safe to anyone.

I am very pleased with this purchase. I highly recommend it. After researching several biometric gun safes, I settled on the Baraska Top Opening Safe. I wanted something more large that could easily hold two handguns and multiple magazines for each and other items. The safe fits nicely into a nightstand drawer. I recommend turning off the beeper on the safe because it is quite loud. I attached a low wattage motion activated light to the underside of the lid, to illuminate the contents when the lid is opened.
It's been totally reliable and safe. That's too reliable. I did not change the battery, because I thought it would be difficult. I did not read the manual, and then I lost it. I wished that I had purchased a specific battery, or that I would have to take it to a location where he or she could have him replaced. This website was not open earlier than I anticipated. However, I recently attempted to open it. I thought you have mismanaged your life. The next day, the green light was solid again instead of the faded look it had the day before, so I tried it and it opened. I searched online and found a manual. I opened the battery compartment and replaced the four AA batteries. After replacing the batteries, the bolt locks slide out into the locked position even though the door was open. When I hit the button that activated the fingerprint scanner, the safe was close and locked. I clicked the button again and placed my finger on the scanner, and it opened simply Does this mean I will have nine more years of battery life left? The next time I will heed the triple beep warning and change the batteries sooner.
This box is on my nightstand next to my bed. I use this product almost daily. One of the pistols is my regular concealed carry pistol. I have a four year old child at home. I feel safe using this device to keep prying eyes and little fingers away. It is important to take into account two elements when buying this product. How will children find your gun safe? It contains safeguards, such as an alarm that sounds if you accidentally leave it open. It has a long battery life and is more durable than other devices. Is this lock box reliable and quick access to your firearm if you need it instantly? I find my answer to this question to be 97 percent yes. The only time I have had this box fail to open on the first pass was when the finger print reader was dirty. I am willing to trade my almost perfect open rate for the peace of mind that my kid will not be able to guess my combination. Besides self defense, I believe your adrenaline will steal most people's fine motor skills. It would be more difficult to operate a combination lock under these conditions. The key is to press the activation button and hold down with your finger. This device allows you to load many views of your finger tips onto it. This will ensure that you do not worry about finger placement, it will know about the side or crooked angle of your finger. It does not matter if you are nervous or trying too hard. My wife and I are both dialed into the Fingerprint Reader for the multiple fingers. I have more gun in my home and will eventually have more to do with them. This product is safe for my family. This product has been available to me for over a year. It is holding up well and my results are consistently the same. Five to five years after they started, there are still no complaints. I will purchase my second gun later in life to carry my wife's concealed carry.
I purchased this item to store a firearm after we had our first child. I store a pistol, magazine, and flashlight in this safe underneath the bed. The purpose of this safe, for me, is to keep my toddler out while still having relatively easy access to a firearm in the unlikely event that I need it. It is not theft proof, bulletproof, unhackable or foolproof. However, it does, prevent infant hands from reaching your firearms. The biometric system is easy to program and works almost every time. I programmed each finger on my and my wife's hands. It seems to work every time. The safe opens quickly and fairly quietly. It is not loud at all. However, you can hear the bars losing their momentum. If you need a heavyduty safe, theft proof, antiparanoia, this is not for you. You will need to spend more money to get something heavier and bolt it to the floor. This is what you have been looking for if you want a safe that will keep baby hands out while being easy to open when intended for a decent price. I do not have any problems opening it. My child cannot comprehend it. I am satisfied with the purchase.
I already have a Barbara safe in the cabinet above the refrigerator. I wanted a safer way to secure my firearm in our nightstand. I have been using a safe that sat on top of the nightstand for a couple of years. This safe fits in the top drawer, but it does not extend out far enough to allow the door to completely open. I wanted to take away this safe and find something that has quicker access if the worst case scenario occurs. Instead, I modified the nightstand so that the top would flip up to allow access to the safe in the top drawer. I installed a motion led light to illuminate the safe when the door is opened.
WHAT WE LIKED MOST:
The digital deposit drawer fits into our cabinet well, has a handle better than the knob and it opens easier with the handle than the knob, is perfect for people who cannot stick their hands down to grab some envelopes. I like the fact that you have predrilled holes at the bottom, and on the backside they come with the concrete anchors. I will not be able to use because the wall has a boarder at the bottom so it is not flush, and the bottom is not touching the floor but it still works. I drill holes into one side of the safe place a bolt that has no grip on it and lock nuts on the inside. It's attractive and very heavy, which is what I was looking for. I would definitely recommend this product to my friends and families.
This safe has been using me for six months, and I have had no issues with the digital pad, or basic functionality. It is nice and heavy so it would be difficult to capture, even if it was not bolted down. I am very happy that I decided to acquire this item.
We ordered this item in order to replace an older safe, which was sticking when we attempted to open it. I love that it is safe. We were happy to see how much room we have with it. We had concerned about the interior size. Our theatre company supports 1000 students and can easily have two to three thousand on performance nights without a safe place to keep the money until Monday morning. We are excited to have this great, easy to use, drop slot safe in our possession.
The safe gives you the ability to deposit money or valuable things without opening it. It is wonderful that it could be bolted onto wall or to any strong surface either at the back or the bottom part of the safe. Although it is not very heavy, I believe it is heavy enough.
We use this safe each week at our church to hold money collected all week from all kinds of sources until Sunday.
WHAT WE LIKED MOST:
The Safe looks and works great. It is very spacious and sturdy. You should add shims for a better fit. I used 1/4" lag screws to make the installation much stronger, since I could use a socket wrench. We are very pleased with our purchase at this time.
I just installed it yesterday. The Safe is very heavy and solid. It works as expected. The instructions are simple and simple to understand. The biometric programming was easy and worked for the first time for each finger programmed. The item ships with heavy duty screws for installation. I used similar sized lag bolts. It is much easier to tighten with a socket than with a screwdriver. I also nailed a piece of scrap wood to the inside of the stud to support the safe while I was securing. It was easy to install without assistance. Shipping was the biggest problem. The first product was dropped on the corner and the flange bent. The packaging was okay, however the nature of the product makes this type of damage more likely. So I would inspect immediately upon arrival. Amazon provided excellent customer service. I received a replacement on my porch the day after I requested return. The replacement was received without the necessary keys and opening tool. The replacement arrived within 48 hours.
It is easy to install securely. I would recommend this item, and this manufacturer. I am very happy to eventually buy more products from the company.
It is durable and very safe.
It was exactly as described.
