beautiful case well designed lock can be improved but over all great item [SEP] originally i left a bad review about it not locking but i realized soon after that i just was not turning the key far enough because i thought the resistance i was meeting was the end of the lock turnafter trying a few times i realize now it was my error in assuming the item was faulty and i am now correcting my review to rate it properlythe case is sturdy with a decent lock on it i do wish it was a slightly different design as the lock although it does in fact lock it seems weak and anyone with any time on their hands could easily snap it probably with just a butter knife which i hope does not happen as i bought this item specifically to protect my make up from the greedy grubby hands of my own family since i had high end make up stolen from my current non locking casei do recommend this item for light protection of products and belongings but nothing more than thatcute design is definitely a selling feature
