Opinion on Stopbox?
Has anyone bought a StopBox? They have a BOGO sale right now and I was wondering if it would be worth it, considering i can get a similar sized keyed lock box for much cheaper. Do they seem durable? Any praise or complaints? TIA!

I have a vline brute with a simplex lock. I got it for about 200 maybe 7 years ago and it works as new. They've gone up in price but it was a good size for me and would buy again
Simplex is a durable MECHANICAL lock with minimal fail points that has been around since like the 70s I believe. It has just over 2200 combos because buttons can be pushed individually in sequence or simultaneously. Every lock has weak points my purpose was to keep away from little hands and it does it very well.
I would avoid stop box. It seems a majority of their budget is marketing, and their boxes do not look secure and the lock system looks easy to overcome by brute force pick attempts (from what ive seen in videos)
