I stumbled upon the Cannon Oxbow AE22 safe from Bud's yesterday. The price of $550 for a Cannon really got my attention...
Appeared to have a mechanical lock. I HATE electronic pads. This is the only reason why I haven't taken heed to many members advice here on the Winchester safe offered from Sam's Club.
The only color available appears to be a matte black. Somewhat of a granite texture? I can live with that.
The weight is light enough to carry down to my basement with an appliance dolly. Hopefully the door can be removed to help shave the weight down during the move.
Cannon's warranty actually has my attention. Seems like if anything were to happen, they would take care of all the headaches.
Concerns?
1. Is it inexpensive, or cheap?
2. Warranty valid?
3. Better safes out there in this price range?
4. Is Cannon's safes made in China? If so, I won't buy. Taiwan? I might consider. Japan, Germany, Korea, etc. is acceptable. I would prefer American made, but this may be a pipe dream for the price range...
I've peeked through the archives and can't find this specific model mentioned. Any thoughts on this or others?
