i was just at my costco tonight getting some items. i saw this safe there. it is indeed solid. and seems to be good size for the money. i also was recently at my local gun shop and they sell Ameerican security safes that start about 1500 and go up to 3-4k. i could get 2 or 3 of these costco safes for that price. i live in a good neighborhood but i am more concerned about theft than i am fire although a bit of fire protection helps. also my oldest child turns 20 months on 1-19. while the ammo is in the garage under a padlock, the guns are in the house. He has never been unsupervised in his life and cant open doors yet and we keep all the doors closed during the day and my wife is a stay at home mom, it will only be a short time before he wil be rooting around.

i dont see the safe in discussion on the website but this one looks pretty good for 2x teh price
