Tools and Hardware Reviews of First Alert 2037F Fire and Water File Chest, 0.62 Cubic Foot, Gray
Customer Review: Leaky waterproof chest
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this fire and water proof file chest in late Nov 2009. We have birth, death and marriage certificates as well as wills, SS cards and other valuable papers that we intended to put in the chest once we had them organized. In the interim we only kept the purchase info, brochures and some Christmas cards in the chest. Well we are finally organized. I pulled the box from an above grade location in our dry furnace room,opened it up and found the contents saturated with water and smelling of mold. I have no idea where the water came from but I shudder at the thought of what would have happened to all those important documents had they been in the chest. Now I'll have to see if I can find a chest that REALLY offers protection.Customer Review: Jammed after a few uses -- Dumped in Trash
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this safe to protect my important papers. The locking mechanism jammed after a few uses. I tried both keys in the keyhole, but the mechanism refused to budge. I was in a panic because I needed my passport, which I had locked in the safe. My husband took a cheap hammer, banged on the lock, and the whole locking mechanism came off in his hands. I did get my passport out in time, but that's not the point.
This product fails on all counts. It is easy to break in to, it jams so you can't get your items out of it, and the "troubleshooting" information on the First Alert website did not fix the problem. I recommend a "no buy" on this one. Look elsewhere. The safe is now junk in my trash bin.
Customer Review: Do not purchase
Summary: 1 Stars
Third time using key in lock, lock just fell out. Honeywell is sending new lock assembly but I suggest getting a box with a combination. Then you do not have this issue or have to keep keys. I wish I had thought about this first. Is very heavy and would probably keep things safe...but lock assembly is cheaply made...disappointed in comparison to rest of Honeywell products.Customer Review: Missing Keys
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased not one, but TWO safes. Imagine my surprise when BOTH were missing keys. One, okay, snafu at the packaging department. Two, much bigger problem. Yes, both safes were missing keys. I can't rate the safe, since I'm returning it, but I'm happy to give Honeywell a black eye for this.Customer Review: Lock fell off when I unboxed it
Summary: 1 Stars
This product would have gotten 0 stars if I could. When I took it out of the box and tried to use the key some plastic piece fell off and the whole lock fell apart.
Don't buy this product. The Sentry is much higher quality and won't fall apart.
