EDIT: After using this product on our outside shed for less than two months it wouldn't open. We tried the combination about 50 times and it wouldn't budge. We ended up having to cut it off with bolt cutters. I still like the flexibility of using a word instead of numbers, but would be careful if you plan to use this outside. I'm not sure it can stand up to the elements.
The color of the lock is slightly darker than primary red. It looks very nice. The letters are easy to read.
One thing that is a minor inconvenience is that the letters on each dial are not in alphabetical order. This makes it slightly harder to find the correct letters for your combination.
One quick thing that I noticed. Sometimes when I was attempting to rotate the dials it was quite a bit harder to rotate. This was due to the fact that I was slightly pulling down on the lock and making it tough for them to freely spin. So either do not put any downward pressure on the lock, or actually *slightly* push up on the lock when you are moving the letters. This will alleviate any problems.
I purchased the Kwikset 980 5 SMT CP Single Cylinder Deadbolt Featuring SmartKey in June 2010 and the maintenance man installed it. He got a key to that lock and kept shopping. I came home one day and the lock that was tight when I left was practically falling off. (This lock is pure garbage and easily defeated; I don't recommend it) I was in such bad shape that I thought nothing of it, but the maintenance man obviously got a duplicate key and set the lock to allow another key of the same number to open the lock. It wasn't until my power bars began walking that I realized my apartment was again a Walmart, only everything was free for the shopper. I purchased the Medeco Maximum Security Lock in July 2011 and no more shopping for anyone. I highly recommend the Medeco. It is expensive, but well worth it!!!! I intend to purchase the double key Medeco lock at some future date. That way if someone does break a window in my apartment/home they will have to use the same entry point as an exit, hopefully leading to their capture. I now feel secure enough to leave my apartment anytime I want with the sure knowledge that no one will be entering my apartment without my knowledge. Of course, they could break a window, but their actions indicated they wished to remain unknown.]
I was so pleased with the Wordlocks, I purchased 3 more in August 2011. I don't understand what some reviewers are saying about the letter wheels being plastic. The letter wheels on all of my wordlocks are metal and very easy to turn. I have had no problems whatsoever and would highly recommend the Wordlocks to everyone. I have 3 silver PL003-SL 5-dial Wordlocks purchased from Amazon.com and 1 red and 1 blue, purchased in my neighborhood from Ace Hardware. The red and blue were purchased 3 or 4 months ago. They work great!
I have a memo pad book in which I make up word combinations for each wordlock and put a check mark next to the current password. I use the same book to hold my internet passwords and I always take it with me when I leave the house.
Note: I am not a person who writes reviews or generally posts comments on anything, but in the last two months I have posted 4 reviews and 1 comment. I can assure you that I don't recommend or judge a product as garbage unless I can back up what I say! I don't work for Amazon or any of their merchant partners. My reviews are biased only by my positive or negative feelings about a product! !
UPDATE: March 11, 2013
Wordlock has two different types of wordlocks. This one, with the hinge on the side,needs work because it can malfunction. I have two of them, and when I changed the password on one, it won't open. Neither the new or the old password will work. I carefully write down each letter as I set/change a password to avoid just this outcome. I have tried every combination of the new password and the lock will not open. I had to buy bolt cutters to remove this lock.
In good conscience, I can no longer recommend this lock!! I have to downgrade my rating to 3 stars.
The ones with the coin turn on the side are fantastic so far.
