Master Lock 4688D Set Your Own Combination TSA Approved Luggage Lock, 1 Pack, Silver

I bought this Master Lock for multiple rifle cases, and it does exactly what I need. Setting my own combination was quick and straightforward thanks to the clear instructions. Once set, the dials turn smoothly and feel solid. The build quality is solid for general use. It’s not meant for ultra-high security situations, but for luggage and rifle cases, it works perfectly (i.e., checks the compliance box for rifle cases in MA). I also like not having to carry a key around. Overall, reliable and convenient.

These Master Lock TSA-approved locks are exactly what I needed for travel peace of mind. Setting my own combination was quick and simple, and the instructions were very clear. The flexible cable shackle makes it easy to thread through zippers or awkward loops on luggage and backpacks. They feel sturdy and well-built, and I love that TSA agents can unlock them if needed without damaging the lock or my bag. I’ve used them on several trips now and they’ve held up great with no issues. Great value for a 2-pack, and the random color variety was a fun bonus. Highly recommend for anyone looking for secure, dependable travel locks!

I recently purchased bikes with MIK trunk bags. The bags come easily on and off with a special MIK key, but I really didn't want to be taking the bag on and off everywhere I stopped. I don't live in huge city where theft is a huge issue with bicycles, so I figured a simple luggage lock would suffice. This lock really fits the bill. It goes through the zippers for the bag to lock it, and fits perfectly in the bag's side pocket when I don't need it. So far I have not had anything stolen while I'm at work or in restaurants/bars on a ride. The only negative I would say about this lock is that numbers don't click into place very well, so sometimes you may not have the number selected that you think because it's just slightly off.

Works well for luggage and other instances, such as locker in hostels. Downside: it's hard to read the numbers due to light glare on the metal.

Very easy to use and sturdy. Used it for my luggage while traveling.

I have been so used to the padlock-type locks that I wasn't certain that I was going to like this cord-style offering from MasterLock. My first impression was not a great one. You basically have to press down on the cord and move it to the left or right to release and lock. I much prefer the solid padlock action as opposed to this. However, the appreciation for this lock came when I simply slid the flexible cord through my luggage zippers and then inserted it into the lock. So, if you have awkward locks on your suitcase, bags, lockers, or just about anything -- you now have far more maneuverability with this corded lock. Setting my own combination was very easy. Just be certain that it's initially set to "000" and that you are able to unlock it before attempting to set your own combination. It really is an effortless process. The quality of this lock is outstanding. Of course, it comes from Master Lock which has the best reputation in manufacturing reliable and dependable locking mechanisms. While I don't think this will protect your valuables 100% (as I am certain the cord can be cut with something), it does act as an excellent deterrent for most curious potential thieves. If you are looking for flexibility in a dependable locking mechanism look no further than this one!

I had to get this for the Master Lock reputation. There were a few other close options, but I figured this would be worth the few extra bucks. Definitely was. The lock seems well built and cable is able to feed through zipper holes. For my use this is more of a deterrent than hard lock out. You can break zipper pulls with pliers, but this will deter the average snooper. It's pretty small so you can have it on your bag and not feel weighed down or worry about it looking out of place.

This travel lock was a good value and it functions as designed. But I have to warn you that it works a bit different than other travel locks, and requires some getting used to. Had I known this lock was so strangely designed, I would have paid the extra $3 and gone for another brand. For one thing, the order of the three numbers in the combination are vertical (top to bottom) rather than horizontal. You have to get used to holding the lock vertically and entering in the combination this way. It can also be difficult to remember to line the numbers up with the tiny guide dots that are between the numbers. In a dark room, you may have trouble entering in your combination if you can't see where to line up the numbers. Finally, unlike every other travel lock -- and even unlike any other padlock in general -- the lock unlocks horizontally rather than vertically. Instead of pulling the locking cable out of the lock, you push it to the side. This is so completely counter-intuitive I still struggle with it. And combined with not always knowing where to line up the numbers, you may think you are entering in the wrong combination if you can't see what you are doing and can't see how to pull the cable to the side to unlock it. The lock is good quality and performs well. I hate to give something that is cheap and well-made a mediocre review. But it's just too awkward to use. Spend a couple extra bucks and get a normal travel lock.

Just what I wanted and works really well. Reliable.

It's a great lock for bags especially when you're travelling. I recommend this product.

The code dials are flimsy, Loops are quite large so zips can still be opened a bit. Otherwise they do the job.

Good quality items
