Tools and Hardware Reviews of Master Lock 4687DNKL Instant Alert TSA Accepted Luggage Lock
Customer Review: Learning curve but works in the end.
Summary: 5 Stars
I definitely had to follow the instructions to set my own combination. I usually set up electronic equipment and other devices without manuals (just as a frame of reference) It took 3 tries to learn how to set the combination. I wouldn't buy this for grandma for Christmas as it requires too much dexterity both in setting your own combination, and for general use.
Once I had it all set up, I did find the red pop up a nice feature because when I picked up my luggage from the airline carousel, all it takes is a glance to see if security went through my bag. If they had, I would generally open at the airport so if anything was missing or broken I could get a claim form and report it right then with luggage in hand.
Customer Review: Sturdy and expect no problems when I fly with these.~
Summary: 5 Stars
I was very happy with the quality of these locks. I got 5 for an up comming trip and had researched that now you have to have TSA approved locks or they will be cut off. I liked that I could set my own combinations.
No they are not a dead bolt lock and I am sure they could be cut off but at least they give some piece of mind. I also am using one for my purse backpack. I read a book for Amazon that had travel tips that in airports and train stations, pick pockets are more than ever. I will have mine locked. They can cut the bag off me, but not just brush by and open it.
Very happy with the quality and I could not pull it open by just fiddling with the combination.
Customer Review: Functions as Designed-
Summary: 5 Stars
I own four of these, in regular use for 2+ years. I also own around a dozen of the non-alert model. If there is any particular advantage to having the popup on here I haven't seen it. If TSA opens my luggage I have always had a card inserted. If one of these is popped up, what would be the next step? Do others inspect this when they pick their bags off the carousel? I don't. I want to get the hell out of the airport. If a TSA person has been in a bag and relocked it, what would be the next step anyway? However, both models cost about the same, both are excellent in reliability, so it's just an extra gimmick to me.Customer Review: Works as expected

These locks were purchased for our son who plans to be over seas for an extended period of time. The locks appear to be as durable as more expensive models we have purchased over the years. Let's face it... a luggage lock only keeps an honest person honest. The red pop up indicator that the lock has been opened is handy especially since the TSA personnel seem to forget to put the notice in your luggage that it has been searched (this has happened to us on two occasions.) The locks were delivered on time, in perfect condition and meet our expectations for the price we paid.Customer Review: Works as expected

This product has a nice weight to it to show a strong metal construction. I recently used them on my trip out to Yellowstone this winter and they held up to any tampering they might have encountered and also were not clipped. These offer a nice assurance of security from people other then TSA employees having access.
