Pros & Cons
Pros
It's not fire rated, and it has a sturdy metal handle. The process of recording fingerprints is easy, but you need to do it as instructed.
Cons
Just after warranty expires fingerprint sensor stops working. It's a shame that the fingerprint reader was flawed in this product. I wouldn't recommend purchasing this product, quality control is an issue.

Make sure you have 4 strongly charged batteries or it will seem like it is broken by beeping but never opening
