Biometric Safe from Ivation. Perfect firearm storage, and more safe.

Standard

Every home should have a safe. There are many different reasons to own one, from personal collections, special family mementos, fire arms, important paperwork, and more. I love the added security measure of being fingerprint enabled. That really adds another layer of protection to the safe. My mom immediately stated, that can be picked up and carried out of the home. Yes, it can if the criminal could find it, lol, but you can bolt it to the ground, and wall as well. My husband has installed many a safe into homeowner’s homes. It’s quite doable. In case you plan on storing your firearm in here, just check your state laws regarding fire arm storage laws along with ammunition storage. I like this as my handgun safe. I’ve been wanting one like this for that particular reason. I used to be a pharmaceutical nurse, and we signed in with our fingerprints. The safe runs off of 4 AA batteries. The battery compartment is located on the inside of the safe door. Be proactive on checking the battery power as an added safety measure for yourself. There is an emergency key entrance located on the underside of the front panel. You’ll see the grooves on the panel to open. You can register up to 32 fingerprints. I can see in some cases, more business related, how that many fingerprints can be needed. The small pamphlet of directions is actually very clear to follow. They include the emergency battery pack and the bolts to mount it to the floor and wall. These areas are predrilled for you already. The felt lining on the bottom is loose, so it’s easily removed and replaced as needed. There was no funky odor to the inside of the safe when I first opened it. I was so excited to see how easy it is to set the fingerprint. Press the reset button on the inside of the door, until you hear a beep. The fingerprint scanner will turn red. Press your finger against it until you hear a solid beep. Now it’s set. Just close the door and test it out. When you lock the door, wait a second until you hear the click. It does not lock right away. You need to wait about 3 seconds. If you hear three short beeps while setting it, it means registration failure. Now to set the pin. With the door open press your chosen number, and then press the reset button. After a very quick two beeps, press the number in again, and the reset button again. You should see the light turn green, and you’ll be good to go. Now, when you press the number to open it, press the # sign after pressing your code in. There is a metal shelf inside the safe as well. That also comes out if you do not want it in there. I’m amazed at how roomy this safe is in person. In my head, the measurements given, looked smaller in my head, lol. The measurements on the ad page are: 13.75″ x 10″ x 10″.  The inside measured out at 9 ¾” by 13.5” with my ruler. You can fit several handguns in here for sure, or a lot of jewelry, stamps, personal papers, receipts, and more in this safe. I have to say that my least favorite part of the safe, is the access panel on the front. That is where the emergency key entrance is, and backup battery access port it. The cover is hard to get off. That literally is my only issue with the safe. I am really impressed by the usability of the safe, and all the different options to access it. I love the fingerprint access; it’s awesome.

I’m actually excited about this rubber broom from DBroth.

Standard

No one likes to clean, but it’s one of those necessities. I was afforded the opportunity to review the most unique broom I have ever seen. This Rubber Broom by Dbroth is so unique. Even my 21 year old son, came over, and said, “What the heck is this?!”. He then had to feel it, play with it, and used it. I love that since it is made with all rubber bristles, it can easily be washed off. On one side of it is a squeegee. That I have never seen on a broom before. You could wash down your RV with this broom, or your vinyl siding. It’s an easy way to keep a clean broom in home. I love that idea. The handle on this broom can unscrew from the bristle area. That makes it easy to wash off. The handle also is telescopic. Just pull it up and screw it to the right, to lock it in place. There is a hole on the top of the handle to lock it into place. The handle is a painted metal, and there is a hole on the top of it, in case you want to hang it up. Because the bristles are rubber, don’t push down when sweeping. It will feel like it’s hard to move. If you take it lightly across the floor, it does do actually sweeping really well. It may take you a few times to get it down. Because the bristles are rubber, it doesn’t kick up a lot of dust, which is great with my insane allergies. Things stick to it to, so if you had pets, that would be great for cleaning up pet hair. I even used the broom to clean the overhead air intake vents.  I sprayed the bristles down with Windex, and then ran it across the grates. It really helped! It also made it so much easier for me. Normally, I get a ladder out, and then reach to clean it by hand. I so dread it. If you have to do this too, then get this broom, lol! It’s a well-made broom, durable and sturdy. It locks into position well, and is so usable because of how it is made.
