I'm looking for a large Safe (Gun safe seems attractive)

Nope I don't have any guns and I won't be storing any cash.
(I don't have any) The gun safe size is about right though.
Anybody have any experience with 90 minute burglar grade, UL
reasonably priced safes.

I saw the $600.00 one on costco's web site but 30 minutes
for fire doesn't seem like enough to me. Are those any good?....

We have used a Chubb for the past 10 years. Works well, particularly in combination with a safety deposit box.

QwkAg,
We have a Sentry gun safe and a smaller cube Sentry safe, at the other joint.
Our gun safe is only that 1/2 hr rating, too. There are gun safes on the web that go longer, but the prices escalates out of proportion, imo. Our 3x3ft cube Sentry safe is 2 hrs fire rated, so gun safes must come at it from a diff perspective.

Not being nosey, but why the size/shape of a gun safe if not putting guns in it?
Tall, thin Mac products?! (I could not resist!).
GL, mD

I'll take the high road, since I spelled Chubb correctly.

It is a safe, which is what the OP asked. Get your mind out of the gutter.

Welcome to Chubbsafes

You must be thinking of a chub. Not the first thing that came to mind for me. I looked it up to get the precise definition: An obese homosexual, is that it? Nope, don't have one of those in the closet (where the safe is).
