Summary: 1 Stars
At first glance, this appeared to be a wonderful solution for protecting important papers and cash in the event of fire. As others have noted, however, mildew is a major, major problem with this unit. It seems that the waterproof seal does such a good job of making the box airtight that even the slightest amount of moisture whatsoever inside the unit will multiply quickly into damp, smelly mildew. And I'm talking about even the moisture from a human hand.
We tried everything in the world to prevent mildew from forming. Before placing items in the box, we insured their moisture-free condition by drying them in a warm oven and then wearing latex gloves to place them in the box. Didn't work. We dumped baking soda in the box. Again, no good. We scattered a bag of silica gel in the box. Again, mildew formed quickly.
Finally, we got rid of the box and voil?: no more mildew! This firebox seems like a great idea and appears sturdy and well built, but mildew issues make it impractical for storing anything except moldy cheese.
