GunVault MiniVault Standard Electronic Steel Handgun & Valuables Lock Box Safe

I read many reviews of the GunVault Mini before finally buying. It seemed every set of reviews were mostly positive (rated 4s or 5s), but also had several negative entries (1s or 2s). Most of the negative reviews centered around the failure of the buttons to open the safe after several months, or difficulty in programming the combination. Since I've only had the safe for a couple weeks, it's too early to tell if I'll experience problems with the buttons, but so far, it's working perfectly as advertised. I found I did need to pay close attention to the directions while programming the combo, but once I grasped the logic, it was a snap. (The 4 buttons have no values themselves. Rather, you need to assign your own values while selecting your personal combination sequence.) I bought the deluxe model that included an AC adapter (the unit still requires 1 9V battery to work) and a dim but handy light that shines down from the roof of the inside of the safe for 5 seconds after opening, long enough to illuminate what you need to grab in a hurry. The foam padding on the inside of the safe isn't super cushioned, but is adequate to protect the finish of a firearm. The Mini is plenty big enough to hold my Glock 19 and 2 magazines with room to spare. This unit lists for $169 on GunVault's website and at many retailers. I almost bought it at Cabela's on sale for $115 until I saw it on Walmart's site for $86.75.
