Once work out how to get in and change code
Hotel room safe standards
This isn’t a particularly secure safe, but I knew that when I ordered it. For some basic security to lock stuff away it does the job, but I think it would be fairly straightforward to open it with a drill, jigsaw with metal cutting blade, and a little time/patience.
It was a breeze to set up and start using. Simply press the reset button in the battery compartment on the inside of the door, type in your personal code and confirm it and you are good to go.
Having a key-based back up is handy too, as long as you don’t lose the keys.
All in all a good budget offering providing some basic protection for your valuables. High recommended.
Seems very good
Make sure you have a decent set of 10mm spanners/ ratchet set to screw the bolts i
it is pretty sturdy and good amount of space but has a bit of a small keyboard
Nice little rfid box
Perfect size for car keys and wallet. Ideal for keeping at your bedside to keep the keys from having the signal extended and your car stolen. Good quality box. Currently priced at 24.99 which seems maybe a little expensive for the size however when you take into consideration about the quality and use it seems worth it.
Ideal safe for A4 documents
Easy to set the safe combination. Alarm setting is a good feature.
Good size, box looks classy but not premium leather.
I have a similar RFID blocking box myself so I ordered this one for my parents/sister as they have multiple cars plus they have scored other bits in there too.
It arrived packaged well and securely and the box itself looks really classy. Although it says premium leather I wouldn’t say it it. It has a nice insulating lining to it and a closed via a buckle.
It’s a good size too and measures 170mm x120mm x 90mm so enough room for my parents plus my sisters key fobs and my dads mobile.
It’s a good price at 24.99 and gives my parents some reassurance.
Happy to recommend.
Yale RFID blocking key store
The Yale brand name gives a bit of confidence that this storage box will do what it promises to in terms of signal blocking. The box is large enough to comfortably hold several keys, so is a good size for a multi-vehicle household.
The box has a textured outer with a finish that looks and feels a bit plasticky. A Yale logo is embossed on the front of the box. The black thread stitching co-ordinates and is neat and even in finish. The metal catch is painted black – a simple latch that flips up and down. The lining, at least initially, smells a bit chemically – hopefully this will dissipate over time.
The packaging this came in was a bit odd. This came boxed, but then wrapped in a plastic bag inside the box. There was no sign of desiccant, and no apparent reason for the single use plastic.
Good for a basic security device
For the price you can’t expect Fort Knox – but it’s a reasonable safe for storing a few documents and unused credit cards that you don’t want to just leave lying around. The programming is easy – and the alarm doesn’t go off unless the safe is physically jiggled about. No false alarms recorded after being fitted for a month. Pre-drilled holes at the back and the base ready to mount the safe against a solid wall – easy to do – the safe is now very well fixed in a cupboard, and it won’t be coming out without at least a bit of a struggle. As long as you understand this is just a little bit of basic protection rather than a high quality security solution, then it’s worth the money.
Compact and strong
Exactly what I needed for keeping my things safe, well made and easy to setup and use.
Solid safe
My files fit perfectly inside and it’s easy to use
I’m very happy with my item it’s a really good job

delivery was quick and easy sturdy easy fitting wouldn’t be able to carry it fare if you did get it of the wall/floo
Solid Safe
Sturdy safe that is surprisingly light for the size. Only downside I can find is the door frame needs some foam around the inside so that when you are typing the code in door doesn’t clang against the frame.

An affordable security measue
A fairly solid small safe for the price. Easy enough to program security code and set alarm. As others have said, probably not loud enough to wake you up but maybe loud enough if thieves physically removed it send ran down road with it.
My only complaint is around physical installation. It comes with 4 expanding bolt fittings which I presumed should fit flush to wall once drilled out.
NO! If you find them flush the bolt doesn’t reach the capture nut. So you need to let the expanding sleeve stand proud of mounting surface by at least 5mm. Would have given 5* if yhis was made clear.

If you're looking for a cheap mini safe this is it.
Got it for 33.98. Very happy. Inflation creeping up now. If you can get it for 45 or under it’s worth it.
Decent quality home safe
A good quality well made home safe. Easy to fit where I wanted to. Instructions still incorrect. When setting up use enter key instead of Key key and vice versa. Alarm is quite shrill, but did not work when I moved the safe. Might work when having to get it out from where fitted though. Alarm did work when using wrong code.

Good value
Like the sturdiness for the price. Setup was OK overall, with one glitch that could be avoided with fuller guidance: It shows you need to press a tiny button under the battery compartment lid before setting the code. It does not say “Do not refit the cover until the code is set.” If it did, I would have set up the code successfully first time, instead of fourth time!

Seems solid enough
Seems solid enough. I was unable to use the supplied fixing bolts due to a particular feature in the floor I attached it to. As mentioned by others the supplied setting instructions were incorrect.

Good-buy
A good sized unit all way round. Easy enough instructions to understand.
Good value for the money
Overall this safe is good value for money. However the very poor setting up instructions are seemingly incorrect, Looking on the internet resolved the problem.
OK for regular domestic home use for smaller sums of money.
OK for price, OK for holding passport and say a couple of thousand pounds. If your planning to hold more than 10k then get a better one. Is a good everyday use safe. On delivery package it says security safe which is good advertisement for burglars. Buy it from somewhere else or from in store.
I intend to keep money in this safe for domestic use, say freinds and family or freinds of freinds come around, keep passports and maybe 5k. I don’t intend this as protection from burglars. Burglar will probably open it in few minutes.

Nice little safe...
Very easy to install and the set up is so easy too.
strong safe
safe looks very strong I like the alarm on it when you get door code wrong
Ideal low budget safe
I wanted a safe for my van so I can do paperwork on the go or at site, depending on where we are I occasionally have to leave the back van doors open/unlocked and I can relax more knowing my laptop and tablet are secure in this safe.

Beggars belief that a Company like Yale can’t issue the correct user instructions. After several failed attempts to set up the safe resulting in the alarm going off and it refusing to open, I was about to send it back to Amazon. I had a quick look at the feedback and found ‘error in instructions’.
When you set up your code, you press the key code NOT enter and when you want to open it you put in your code followed by enter NOT the key symbol. The feedback I read was from Sep 20, unbelievable that Yale have not corrected this.

A handy, easy-to-install and easy-to-operate household safe...
The Yale Small Alarmed Value Safe (Model: YEC/200/DB1) is a surprisingly reasonably-priced home safe that gives you that extra security and peace of mind with your most valued/expensive possessions and/or paperwork.
The safe is a compact size, giving you enough room for a few chosen valuables, and absolutely ideal for paperwork and jewellery.
The safe can be fixed to the floor or a solid wall with relative ease. It’s just a case of drilling into the wall or floor and then screwing the safe in using the enclosed fixing bolts. Obviously, should a would-be burglar have a crowbar and enough leverage and audacity to prise the safe off the floor or wall, then there’s a very distinct possibility they’ll succeed. Nevertheless, fixing the safe in a tight corner or hidden away somewhere is better than not having anything at all.
The quality of the safe seems reasonable. Considering the price, it’s not bad at all. Although with it being Yale, to be honest, I did expect the thickness of the door and general bodywork to be a tad thicker.
Using the safe is super simple. It’s literally a case of inputting the code of your choice (from 3 digits all the way up to 8 digits long). Then it’s good to go.
The safe electronics run off the power of 4x AA batteries, which actually come included. This is also what powers the really quite loud alarm, should someone try to move the safe and/or have three incorrect attempts at opening the safe.
All in all, we’re pretty happy with the safe. Ok, so it doesn’t offer the highest of security. However, for a small little household safe, maybe for keeping stuff like passports and the like safe and secure, it’s absolutely ideal.
Small safe easy set up
Seen a lot of bad reviews about this but I found it very easy to set up instructions not the best but a little common sense
To keep very important pieces safe
It fits nicely and looks good just the right size and still room for more bits to put in later. Bit of a problem with the delivery
I recommend
Really good and easy to instal. It keeps all stuff well safe and it fells medium sturdiness. Overall I would recommend

Amazing medium size Yale safe. Very easy set up and a great safe overall.
Ideal small safe
Ideal for in my wardrobe to keep my wallet in and other things I don’t want touched
After spending best part of a month looking for a safe I settled for this. Read all The reviews on each safe then when i had made my mind up bam I found all the negative comments about them and ended up back at square one. Well this safe is great, it’s not too heavy seems pretty sturdy was easy as to set up. Took about 5 Mins to set the code. Mine is bolted to a solid wall. I didn’t use the bolts supplied but my own 120mm concrete screws I had in the van.
The alarm works really well slightest knock and it goes off, although the alarm isn’t the loudest and probs would wake me up. I went for the large one which has the shelf in which is handy. Have added a soft padding to protect my valuables.
This safe does exactly what it says.
Have not problems with it.
Good enough for my purposes and good value
Nice simple safe. Fairly light so would be easy for burger to get away with but not necessarily to break into. Solid enough to keep out the kids!
