Genie Hand – Time Lock Safe Weekly/Daily Timer – B-Class Lock – Anti Bounce Technology

I bought this safe about 9 months ago. I use it so I can cut down on smoking cigarettes. The safe works great. It does as what I expect it to do and now I smoke a lot less than before owning the safe. If you follow the manual that's included it is easy to setup. The time unlock feature is great and it was the reason why I bought the safe. You can basically set any time of the week and anytime of the day to keep it locked and to unlock it. There are many different memory settings to set when to lock it and when it's unlockable so you can set each day to a different time. You can also set it to lock and unlock multiple times in one day. You can set many different combinations of day and time. There are not good reviews and I'm not sure why. I also had issues with the safe but it was user error on my end. After reading the manual again I was able to use the safe without any issues. Keep the manual and make sure to read it if it's not working how you want it to. Usually the settings are not set correctly when you think that there is an issue with it. This is a very great safe and the price is great for the feature that it provides. I'm very happy with this purchase.

I purchased this item and it worked for a few months. However, the time lock mechanism simply stopped working. The keypad was working fine and the red light on the chord was illuminated. Be that as it may, it doesn't open. The safe comes with a pair of keys which is fine. But if you can easily open it with keys, then it's simply a storage device - not a time lock safe. Do yourself a favor and find a different option from a reputable safe manufacturer. It may cost more but it will save you $ in the long run. I shelled out $235 for nothing. Don't be me.

The safe is comparably sturdy and strong to other safes of similar size and appearance. That is to say, if someone had an industrial blowtorch or other specialized equipment and was willing to spend significant time and money brute forcing it open through the top, back, or sides, I'm sure it would be possible. But no one is getting in using standard household objects. The time function works perfectly, just make sure to read the manual to the letter to properly program it and make sure to test it before locking up/giving away the keys to prevent your own ability to override the timing functionality. It's not perfectly intuitive, and requires some finagling to figure out how to program it the way you want, but it's NOT rocket science and doesn't take more than 10-15 minutes or so. It could take longer if you want to have additional complexity to which times of each day you want it to work, etc, but once it's set up it's set up for good and the option to be able to customize it SO much is extremely valuable and appreciated. I screwed up initially when programming it and thought I had tested it and it was working properly so I mistakenly locked up the keys with the expectation I would be able to use my code to open it back up during the time frame I had set when the need arose. However, the code didn't work when I expected it to so I contacted the seller who quickly offered to send an additional key free of charge and walk through the programming I had done with me to see if it was human error and if not, to replace the whole thing for free if it was indeed malfunctioning and a result of the product itself. They key arrived very quickly for coming from the other side of the world and immediately upon unlocking it and viewing the settings I had input, it was clear that it was my fault the code wasn't working since I had somehow changed the mode to accept only the key and ignore the timelock functionality. After additional rigorous testing, the timelock functionality is clearly working as intended once I fixed my mistake. So in the end, the safe does exactly what it's meant to do and the seller was kind enough to fix a problem I had caused free of charge and very quickly, which goes to show how much they care about their customers. So all in all, I highly recommend this product and it is completely worth the money if other cheaper options have not worked because you, like me, have exploited their weak build quality and brute forced through to access the contents inside. That is simply impossible with this product and I also really like the fallback of always being able to access the contents with the keys in case of emergency or if the timelock functionality actually DOES malfunction. (this is extremely important given the sturdiness and impossibility of brute forcing it open.) Just lock one inside and give the other to someone you trust for safekeeping and you will have complete peace of mind while still being able to fully use this product for its purpose and function. I have used multiple other timelock boxes and while this is by far the most costly, it is far and away the best at what it is intended for while having complete customization that isn't present on other options. This is the endgame for this category of product. Once you buy one, you will never ever need another. The only real gripe (which is less of a gripe and more of a request) I have is that it is not fireproof. If there was an option for a more expensive, fire/waterproof version of this product, I would be happy to buy it for a dual purpose willpower aid and actual SAFE safe for important documents in the case of disaster. Perfect two birds with one stone scenario.

I have researched and experimented with time lock safes for about 6 years and have come to the conclusion that this safe is by far the most effective. Others that I’ve tried are usually very easily overridden rendering them useless. This safe can’t be overridden. It is nearly impossible to break into unless you have serious demolition tools such as a cutting torch. Normal house hold tools will not be effective at breaking into this safe. The timer gives you complete flexibility on times that the safe can be opened and is easily adjusted depending on your schedule. I own probably 15 of these safes at various properties. On 2 occasions I received a defective safe. On both occasions I email the address on the manual and Dan promptly replied and sent a brand new replacement at no cost and zero inconvenience to me. Much like Amazon understands the importance of customer service I believe Dan understands as well. I will remain loyal to this safe for years to come as a result of its superior performance and the fact that it is backed by outstanding customer service.

I bought this today and followed the instructions step by step. I even reread the manual about six times to make sure I was doing everything correctly, but unfortunately the timer does not start at all. The red button never lights up. It’s really disappointing because I spent my time and money on this product, and now I’m just sitting here wondering what I’m supposed to do with it. I expected it to work right out of the box, but it simply doesn’t.

This safe is perfect for helping tame my bad habits, but be aware: There is some setup time. This is because you will want to establish a weekly schedule of when you want the safe to allow access, and this requires you to program an electronic timer on the inside. It is just like programming a digital appliance timer, with the ability to create several on and off programs and repeat daily, weekly, or on a schedule of your choosing. So if you're patient or a little tech savvy, you shouldn't have any trouble with this. It took me about 1/2 hour to program my daily access times. Your milage may vary. The manufacturer provides excellent support and has helped me quiet the jarringly loud beeps that the keypad makes (hint: you have to open a panel and remove the tiny speaker from the motherboard). Aside from the noisy beeping, the only downside is that you can't schedule anything beyond a week away. ps: There are keys you can use to bypass the timer and keypad and get into the safe at any time. These should be kept in a safe place that you can't get to unless you *really* need them. They should NOT be kept in the safe.

I have been using this for about 1 year to reduce between-meal snacking, which has been a problem since I have started working remotely. I keep a keyring locked up inside and the time-lock opens only for an hour during meal times. In the fridge I keep padlocked containers (soft-coolers). Many soft-coolers and lunchboxes that have two zippers are lockable with external padlocks. For the freezer, I use lockable document bags. I was using the time-delay type of safe/padlock for a few months, but eventually I would forget to set the timer on a particular day and that was enough to keep old habits coming back. I program the timer on this safe to be open only during 3 fixed mealtimes for a duration of 1 hour. Currently, I use the times 7-8am, 12-1pm, and 3-4pm. Programming the timer does require consulting the manual, and there is a helpful 2D barcode fixed to the interior surface of the door that can be scanned by your cell phone to pull up the manual from the web, if at some time in the future you need a refresher on how the timer works. The safe can also be opened by the included keys, though this requires snapping off the grey plastic cover surrounding the dial (which would probably only be done in an emergency). The construction is that of a typical hotel safe and I have not had any problems with the mechanism, which operates smoothly. A 3-digit code + the pound key needs to be pressed to open the safe, which will only be successful during the programmed "open" times. One quirk of the opening mechanism is that it needs to be rotated a short distance counterclockwise, and then clockwise to open the door. The locking/unlocking mechanism is driven by a solenoid, which has fewer moving parts than a locking mechanism that uses a motor (such as the KSafe) so should last longer. I will check back in 6 months to add info about the battery longevity (this safe works 100% from batteries) and reliability. After 6 Months: The locking mechanism is still working smoothly and the original batteries are still working fine without needing replacement so far. I have switched from soft coolers to lockable plastic field boxes (available online) and use small brass padlocks that come in 6-packs and use the same key. After 12 Months: Batteries lasted 12 months and were replaced. The locking mechanism is still working smoothly and I have lost a significant amount of weight using this safe. After 24 Months: Batteries lasted 12 months and were replaced. Safe still working normally.

Another seller offering the same exact thing for $100 less. Return shipping wasn't a problem, though I had to pay $16. But, that was my fault for not doing better research before purchasing. FYI, the thing is made in China. Works so far, but I have my doubts that it'll last.

Perfetta

It takes a crowbar to get into the locker and admit to your flaws. Better wait a couple of days untill the duplicate key is delivered. Serves it's purpose therefor.

Gick snabbt att få skåp och rätt funktion på plats

Die Funktion der Zeitschaltuhr wäre ein super Feature, wenn sich der Tresor nicht ganz einfach mit einem Schraubenzieher aufhebeln ließe. Ein Stück Schrott mehr in meiner Sammlung.

The see-through plastic safes, their cute, but don't last when the cravings hit. If you have ever broken into a safe to get to your addiction, then this is the safe for you. This is the only solution for people who are serious about breaking food addictions. I go shopping once a week then lock up my wallet for the rest of the time. Its simple, It works!
