Featrured Product - DormVault DV700 Laptop Safe

The DormVault is a very effect and unique product and is highly recommended.  Two years ago when my daughter was preparing to go to college I started to worry about her laptop getting stolen.  Unfortunately laptops are stolen every day at college, the small size and high value makes them the number one target for thieves on campus.

So I searched and searched and came across the DormVault laptop safe.  It is a very well made product which can be secured to many different surfaces.  I installed it on her loft bed frame kit and it worked perfectly.  I was a little worried that her friends would think it was being paranoid, however they all asked her where she got it because many wanted their own.  All in all a great product for a very fair price.
