SentrySafe STW123GDC review
SentrySafe STW123GDC Fire and Water Resistant Safe, Digital Keypad, 1.23 cu ft
By Tom Calder
SentrySafe's technical sheet gives this safe 2 hours at up to 1850°F and 8 inches of water for 24 hours, but the Amazon listing says 1 hour. Either way it's fire and water rated; check the rating on the label when it arrives.

This is a Researched review: we haven't used this product. We check every specification against at least two independent sources, re-check the US price on a schedule where we can track it automatically, and say plainly who it isn't for. Commissions never change a rating.
