The castle is not Worse. The numerical code is even adjustable, the number wheels are also worked unevenly, so that one can not come to the combination with a simple pull on the strap. However, you can tell whether an even or odd number has been set. Thus, the possible combinations of 1000 reduced to 125. It would be nice if Abus nachbessert there. For easy access protection in suitcase or travel bag I can recommend the castle. Valuables - especially if they are longer unobserved - I would however by no means locked away! Otherwise, the lock is pleased about a new owner and the content also. I recommend the Castle for simple applications.
The one who needs more security warmly recommend the next larger, 4-digit model.
