Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Honestly I’m in love with this thing. I thought this was a scam because it was advertised on Facebook but I bought it anyway. I love it. It’s really cool. It’s super well thought out. I have a 2016 accord and it snaps right in, it wiggles a little so I tried to rip it out and I couldn’t do it. I bought the fingerprint version. Really neat product.

Store owner replied: Thanks for giving us a try, Noam! Glad you’re enjoying it in your Accord. If you’d like help checking the movement you mentioned, reach out to support@boostedsafe.com.

Store owner replied: Thanks, Jake! Glad it fits your Mach E and setup was straightforward. We appreciate the recommendation.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

27 years in Law Enforcement and after retirement, securing a weapon in the car has always been problematic. There are places one can't carry, such as courthouses or other Gov facilities and many times I've been forced to either hide the weapon in the car or put it in a lockbox which I didn't feel was the slightest bit safe. Most states dictate, to be legal, a certain type of lockbox had to be permanently bolted to the vehicle with drilled holes. The boosted seat is genius, using hard mounts already in every seat of modern cars, allowing you to chose multiple locations. Yes, technically its not 'bolted' to the frame, but I will argue it's just as secure. It's reasonably disguised and most thieves wouldn't give it a second look. If they did, the safe would be too difficult to open, much less remove. Room for other valuables as well. I'm a huge fan. The Faraday bag was an unexpected bonus!!!

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Daniel, thank you for such a thoughtful review. The discreet design and extra room sound like a good fit for your needs, and we’re happy the Faraday bag was a welcome bonus.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

As shown in the videos and in the photo, I highly recommend it 100%; it does the installation.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you for the recommendation and photos, Leibnitz. We appreciate you showing your setup.

Customer video review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I’ve been very impressed with Boosted Safe. The safe is solid, well-built, and feels like a quality product the moment you get your hands on it. Setup was straightforward, the features work exactly as they should, and it gives you quick access without sacrificing security. What really stands out is the overall design and attention to detail. It doesn’t feel cheap or gimmicky like some of the other options out there. It feels like something that was actually designed by people who understand what customers want from a secure, reliable safe. Great product, easy to use, and absolutely worth the investment. I’d definitely recommend Boosted Safe to anyone looking for a dependable safe with modern features. Five stars from me.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: RJ, you noticed the little details, and that means a lot. Thank you for such a thoughtful review and recommendation.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I was looking for a secure solution for my valuables and/or firearm while traveling and finally found it! The Boosted Safe secures easily to the built in anchors in the back seat and it is camouflaged in plain view… easily overlooked as a child’s booster seat. I love the fact that I can easily remove it from my truck and bring it in a hotel room if needed. The only issue I had was programming the code and fingerprints, but it was me trying to rush the process. I did register my fingers multiple times to get more angles. Fun fact… if you have a Kuna (with magazine detached) and a Glock 17 both will fit. I am very happy with this purchase!!.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks for the thoughtful review, James! Glad you got the fingerprints set up and that moving it between your truck and hotel works well for your travels.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Love this safe, Have recommended it to a lot of my friends in the Sheriff Dept.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you, Gary! We really appreciate you recommending us to your friends at the Sheriff’s Department. Glad you’re enjoying the safe!

Customer video review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Fingerprint scanner works great. Easiest one I’ve had to setup. I had to use a little more effort attaching the clips than I thought I would have to. The fit is nice and tight. I would like to see the cover fit over the tether cable. I’m not sure if I’m going to keep that attached or not. I can see it looking down through the window.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Robert! Glad the fingerprint setup was straightforward. We appreciate the feedback on the clips and cover—wanting the tether tucked out of sight makes sense.

Customer video review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Love this safe i use it every day mostly for guns i woukd buy another one but my other vehicles are roo old and dont have the mount points

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Don! Glad it’s been useful every day. We understand the limitation with older vehicles that don’t have the lower anchors.

Customer video review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

The safe is very convenient you can move from car to car

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Mike! Glad moving it between cars is convenient. If there’s anything we could improve, we’d love to hear it.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I feel more comfortable placing valuables in the BoostedSafe Elite than the glove compartment or center console of my MS. I've been recommending this solution to all of my friends!

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Christopher! Glad it brings you peace of mind, and we appreciate you recommending it to friends.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Very easy to install, and matches my interior of my truck perfectly.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Keith! Glad installation was easy and the cover matches your truck so well.

Customer video review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I like it because it’s secure, very sturdy, good quality and inconspicuous. Is it easy to transfer from one vehicle to another

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Anton! Glad you’re pleased with the quality and discreet look. It can be transferred between compatible vehicles using the internal connector releases; our setup guide can walk you through it.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Exactly what I wanted and needed. I hot the elite version because things happen. I love the fact that i can access it using a code, a key and ny finger print. What sold me was the isoflex compatibility-- this thing isn't going ANYWHERE without the car frame and I love that. I also suse my dogs car seat on top of it and it gives her a window boost which she loves. I am so thankful and grateful for the quality and peace of mind that this safe provides. No more trial and error and small space with console or under the seat safe etc. Thank you.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Darya! Glad the access options and storage space suit your needs. We appreciate the thoughtful feedback.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I'm so glad I picked up this BoostedSafe! After watching a bunch of videos online, I can finally stop tossing everything into the glove compartment. 😅 Now my wife has a request: make one for the Model Y Juniper that fits under the front seat! The options out there right now are all garbage. 🗑️ This would be an instant buy for us.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Christopher! Glad you’re enjoying it. We appreciate the specific request for a Model Y Juniper under-seat option.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

High quality, great fit, and finish. The number pad and fingerprint sensor are very responsive, unlocking and opening quickly. This is the best-looking safe I've ever seen in a car, and the PU leather cover adds a touch of class and camouflage. It blends in with the black interior back seat of my Kia K5 and is secured firmly in place. It's not going anywhere, and the vast majority of people don't even notice it. Most portable gun safes I've seen hold one or two full-sized semiauto pistols, three at most. I can fit five in mine. I'm more than pleased with my purchase.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you! Glad the quick access, space, and cover work so well in your Kia K5.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I am not happy with this web portal at all I was presented with three options. I love the bayonet design, the cheapest option shows a tethered cable as part of its included parts. There is no information on whether it actually has the bayonets. I already own safes with tethering cables. Which by the way are easily secured to the car seat by drilling small hole in the safe opposite the regular tethering hole. This hole should be just big enough for the smaller end of the tether cable to exit the safe. The looped end will securely hold inside the safe, and captive nut end will securely fasten normM supplied hole. In conclusion I would be totally angered out my mind, if I got hoodwinked in a bait and switch sales promotion. I am going to tell anyone and everyone not to suckered by these sales promotions.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Delton. We understand wanting clear information before ordering. The full-size Basic and Elite both include the adjustable anchor connectors. Please contact support@boostedsafe.com if you’d like help confirming the model and included parts.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

This safe is high quality and has 3 ways of accessing. Biometrics, keys or a combination you can set, and easily change if you need to. It has a lot of room and can hold a large laptop. It will hold 6 to pistols and has a lot of other uses. The steel is not flimsy at all, and I have complete confidence in the Boosted Safe Elite that I in my vehicle. I also truly believe the company really cares about their customers. They include a cable so you can securely lock your save to another area if you need you seat. They include a very high-quality cover with the Boosted Elite Safe and even print targets on the inside of the box they ship in. If that is not enough, they also include a nice document bag. I usually do NOT write long reviews, but this product is that nice. I am recommending these and you won't be disappointed, you will be overjoyed you got it. Rev Anna Marie

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you, Anna Marie! Glad you’re enjoying the storage and access options. We appreciate such a thoughtful review.

Easy to install, easy to use and convenient to store person belongings.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Christian! Glad installation and everyday use are convenient.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I just received my BoostedSafe yesterday and installed it this morning in my 2024 4Runner. This is a very high quality product that works perfectly and as described by the manufacturer. This will now be the best place for my expensive cameras when on assignment. I only wish I had purchased this product years ago. This vehicle safe gets my highest recommendation of 5/5.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Robert! Glad it fits your 4Runner and is useful for your camera gear.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I have mine for a few months. The cover is useless. The latch stopped working. So I can't lock it and it fully opens when I hit a bump. I'm trying to reach the company for a replacement or refund.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks for flagging this, Scott. I’m sorry the latch has stopped holding and you’ve had trouble reaching us. Please email support@boostedsafe.com with your order details so we can help address the fault.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Had an issue since I mistakenly put one of my batteries in backwards. Duh… Skyler called me and we fixed that issue since I did not double check my issue. The safe works as listed and all is good including stellar support. Thank you!

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Dean! Glad Skyler helped get everything working. We appreciate you sharing the experience.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Just got my Elite! Setup was a breeze! Locks into the seat and isn't going anywhere the car doesn't go! I had been pondering over it since last November! Only regret I have is that I didn't take advantage of the holiday discount! I will be getting one for my other car! My Flux Raider 365 Ultralight fits with plenty of extra room! Don't sleep on this like I did!

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you! Glad setup was easy and it has the space you need.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I have seen and used a few in car safes. This by far is the best due to it portability but most of all because it utilizes the bolted hard points of every car built in America or Foreign built. The hard points used to mount child safety seats. Genius Idea. This would makes it too time consuming for a car/truck burglar to want to steal. Love this product. My only problem I have found is the biometric reader working properly. It has difficulty reading your pre programmed thumb or fingerprint you setup. It’s very picky . It does work however. Nicely engineered idea with this safe and would recommend as a former Law Enforcement officer/Retired.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you for the thoughtful feedback. Glad the mounting design works for you. Please contact support@boostedsafe.com if fingerprint readings remain inconsistent so we can help.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Love my safe. Took all of 5 minutes to unpack and program keypad and fingerprint reader. Easily locked into drivers side rear seat. Makes arming and disarming much easier. I didn’t think I’d be a fan of fingerprint reader but it’s been very fast and reliable.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Curt! Glad setup was quick and the fingerprint reader exceeded your expectations.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

First, I was impressed by how well it was packaged and the weight of it. It’s pretty heavy duty and really simple to set up. Opens perfectly every time. It’s definitely worth the money.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you! Glad setup was simple and the build impressed you.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I cant say enough how good a product and Company this is! I got prompt, above and beyond great customer service from the owner/inventor of Boosted Safe. The Boosted Safe is a really slick product, robust and well thought out. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy another one and have recommended to several friends that they should own one too!

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you! Glad you had a good experience with our team. We appreciate the recommendations.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I thought long and hard about gettin this safe and I am glad I did. It is very compact and not an obvious safe in the back of my 2025 Nissan Armada. It fits my Springfield Kuna with folded stock with about an inch to spare. The locking system is flawless and with a quick thumbprint or code I can access the interior. Great product and a more than fair price.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you! Glad it fits your Armada and has the space you need.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I was thinking of getting the safe for my middle console but needed something bigger for my laptop. This is perfect! I was a bit skeptical on attaching it to my iso hooks in my car because the fear of it not being able to unlock but it works out well. Finger print works flawlessly but I always keep the key on me just in case. Could have better instructions on the install of the battery. And depending on how available your iso hooks on your car is will define how easy the installation overall will be

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Gerald! Glad it has room for your laptop. We appreciate the specific feedback on battery instructions and anchor access.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

I really like the safe. It has a solid build quality which is the most impressive factor in my opinion. The black quilted cover is also very nice and it matches the black interior of my F350 very nicely. It lays nicely under a seat cover for the dog. I would like to see (and ultimately purchase) a white quilted cover for my wife’s SUV as well. I’m not an expert but the biometric fingerprint lock has worked every time I’ve used the safe and that was a potential concern for me. As long as it continues to operate as it has I’ll be happy with it.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Chet! Glad the cover matches your F350 and the fingerprint reader is working well. We appreciate the request for a white cover.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Easy to install and very well made. I am happy with my purchase and the level of service I received from Skylar.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you! Glad installation was easy and Skyler could help.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

This is the best car safe I’ve ever purchased. It’s worth every penny. The company also goes above and beyond when it comes to customer service. Three weeks ago, I couldn’t fit the safe in my backseat, so I contacted the company to return it. Skyler responded quickly via email, asking me what was wrong and why I wanted to return the item. He even sent me a text message asking if I’d like to FaceTime so he could help me install it. You don’t find that kind of customer service anymore. I’ll be a customer for life.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you! Glad Skyler could help with the fit. We appreciate you sharing the support experience.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

At first I thought it was a bit expensive but now that I received it I was pretty impressed of the size. I have my laptop, my iPad, and my pistol inside and there is still more space. I did have a little bit of a tough time getting them hooked into the clips but I guess it is because it is a tight fit. 2021 Tesla Model Y

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thanks, Ismael! Glad there’s room for your gear. We appreciate the detail about the tight anchor fit in your Model Y.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Ingenious safe! Very secure and practical as well. The ability to use a key or combo is nice. I haven't had the grandkids in the car to use it as a booster yet, but secured my carry pistol with confidence. And with the quilted cover, it blends in with my particular vehicle perfectly. My only issue is the lid/latch rattles a bit. I think this is a quick fix by adding more foam for a bit more pressure. I feel it's covert enough to not even throw a jacket over to be less obvious. Overall very worth it, especially at discounted promo prices in which I took advantage of.

BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Store owner replied: Thank you! Glad it blends in well. Before using it with your grandkids, please note the full-size safe is not a child booster seat. Support@boostedsafe.com can also help check the lid rattle.

Customer photo review of BoostedSafe Elite: Fingerprint, Key & Digital Combo

Frequently asked questions.

Which cars does it fit?

Yes. Every US passenger vehicle built since model year 2003 has the steel child-seat anchors it clips to. It’s federal law. Driving something older, or want it where there are no anchors? Our Universal Anchor Adapter gives it the same steel latch points.

Do I need tools or have to modify anything?

No tools, no drilling, no mods. It clicks into the same anchors a child seat uses. About fifteen seconds in, about fifteen seconds out.

Can’t a thief just take the whole safe?

The release is inside the safe. To take it out of the car you have to unlock it and open it first. No key, code or fingerprint, no removal.

Won’t a thief still break my window?

Maybe. A safe doesn’t stop a rock. What it does is turn a sixty-second payday into a broken window and nothing to show for it. Glass is a few hundred dollars. A pistol, a laptop or a passport the week of your trip is a different kind of day.

Doesn’t the ad tell thieves what to look for?

They can know exactly what it is. It’s still steel, locked to welded steel, and it opens from the inside. Knowing where the bank vault is has never been the hard part.

How do I take it out or move it to another car?

Open it, press the release inside, lift it out. About fifteen seconds. It clicks into your next car the same way, and it’s light enough to carry in one hand.

Can my kid actually sit on it?

Not on the BoostedSafe or the Golden Gate. Those only look like booster seats. The Mini is built as a real booster with a locked compartment inside, and its certification is in progress.

What if someone does break into it?

Then we replace it, free. That’s the break-in guarantee. Power tools and a lot of time beat every safe ever made, which is why we cover it instead of pretending.

Is $399 a lot for a car safe?

It’s a lot for a box on a cable. It’s cheap for the only one locked to the car, and you can split it. It also costs less than the laptop, the pistol, or the passport the week of your trip.

Why not just use the trunk or take it with me?

Do that when you can. This is for the courthouse, the stadium, the gym, the trailhead, the school, the flight: everywhere the sign on the door says no and the trunk release is a button on the dash.

What if they steal the whole car?

Then you have a stolen car, and that’s what insurance is for. Your safe is still locked, still latched to a car with a plate number, and still covered by the break-in replacement.

What if they unbolt the whole seat?

That’s a toolbox, ten minutes and a lot of noise in a parking lot. Smash-and-grabs last under a minute. And they’d still be carrying a locked steel box.

It takes up a seat. What if I need it?

Fifteen seconds and it’s in the trunk. If your back seat is full every single day, this isn’t your safe, and we’d rather tell you now.

I carry on my hip. Why would I need this?

Good. Keep doing that. This is for the places you legally can’t: federal buildings, schools, stadiums, some employers. One customer told us he carries more often now, because he always has somewhere legal to put it.

Does it block key-fob and RF signals?

The safe itself isn’t a signal blocker. The Faraday bag that comes free with the Elite is. Drop your fob in it and relay thieves get nothing.

Is it fireproof or waterproof?

No, and we won’t pretend. It’s a theft safe. Don’t leave batteries or anything heat-sensitive in a closed car in August, safe or no safe.

Is it legal for firearm transport in my state?

It’s a locked steel container attached to the vehicle, which is what most state transport laws ask for. The Golden Gate Elite is California DOJ certified. Store firearms unloaded and check your own state’s rules.

Are these reviews real?

Yes. They’re verified buyers on Loox, we reply to nearly every one, and the ad comments on this page are copied word for word. One commenter got accused of being a bot, so he posted a photo of his safe and his NRA instructor credentials.

Can I see it in person first?

We’re at gun shows and in select safe dealers. Easier: buy it, put it in your car for 30 days, and send it back if you don’t love it.

Can you fill it with Tannerite and shoot it?

You can. We did. Do not recommend. Video coming.

Your car already has steel anchors. The safe locks to them.

Every US car built since 2003 has steel child-seat anchors welded into the body. The safe clips onto them with patented latches. The release is inside the locked safe, so nobody outside the car can pop it free.
