Coca Cola is a hugely popular brand worldwide and so it is not surprising that a lot of people would have a few cans sitting in their refrigerator. So, if one of those cans happened to be a Coca Cola can diversion safe no one would be any the wiser.
Yes folks this stash can looks and feels just like a real coca cola can. It has all the correct font designs and branding on the outside and it has also been specially weighted so that it actually weighs as much as an unopened can.
To tell you the truth there really isn’t much to tell about this product. It is like any other diversion can safe regarding its purpose however it has been produced by a company that creates more of a budget diversion safe.
The company, “Diversion Stash Safes” has a number of products on the market all of which are selling quite well but I think due to the lower pricing some of the quality suffers.
Another company called, “Southwest Speciality Products” also create diversion safes but you can expect much better quality. Of course, better quality also means the cost goes up but SSP have gained a very good reputation.
If you don’t mind paying more for a better quality stash can check out some of their diversion safes.
Anyway, this particular can safe is 9.3 x 6.7 x 3.2 inches but that is the actual size of the can and not the interior. You may be surprised to discover that the interior is much smaller; maybe just half of the can is actually free.
This means that you may have trouble stashing items such as a large set of keys or a wrist watch. However, it is an ideal size for loose change, paper money, earrings, necklace or small documents like invoices.
As you can see in the image above that when the top is unscrewed and removed it reveals a much smaller opening within. The diameter of the neck is around 1.5 inches.
Best Place to Store the Can Safe
This stash can would look right at home if placed in a refrigerator. I don’t think there are many burglars who would take the time to open up their victim’s fridge to see if there was anything worth stealing. That would most likely be the best place to store the can safe but it all depends on what you have inside. If it is something that will not react well to the cold then you may need to try a different place.
Another good place would be in a larder or a cupboard where you keep all your other soda cans. One thing you must be careful of and that is mistaking the can for a real Coke can. People have tried to pull the ring on the lid only to discover it isn’t a real soda can!
Some Put-offs about this Diversion Safe
If you read some of the earlier reviews to this product you will notice a fair few negative comments mainly pointing to the quality of the product. Since those first few reviews “Diversion Stash Safes” has made changes to their products by listening to what the consumers had to say and then improving their products to match the demand.
They did a pretty good job, so you should experience any of the earlier issues such as a sharp lid, mold on the inside, a chemical smell and dents. Read the later reviews and you will notice the difference.
