Compact Key Holder - Stylish & Practical Pocket Key Organizer With Secure Locking Mechanism. (Dark Blue)

Great way to organize your keys without a big, bulky Keychain in your pocket.

Low cost for great look

This really organized my keys and gave my keychain a clean look. First, I added the clear plastics between each key, which made the keys fall over out of the holder. I wouldn’t recommend doing it this way. Instead, I put the black stickers in the hole on the outside where the “screws” go in, then the clear plastic, then all of my keys, and finish it with another clear plastic. Then close the leather over everything, and screw it in. This way kept the keys tight and secure. I uploaded a little diagram for visuals. Love it. Oh, almost forgot to mention, it doesn’t fit the Minute Keys that has the MK engraving on it. Your keys have to be the regular ones with at least a hole in the middle. I had to get new keys made to fit.

I wanted a keychain that wouldn’t be too noisy and would be more compact but didn’t want to spend the $50+ on a name brand one so I decided to try this one out. I read the reviews that it sometimes came loose but decided to take my chances. Don’t make the same mistake as me. After a few weeks of using (only having 3 keys on it total) the screw was already starting to get loose. I had to tighten it up multiple times. Then a few more weeks went by and I was tightening it up daily which became a real pain in the butt. Flash forward to earlier in the week when I was out on a run and the entire thing decided to come apart because it was too loose and I have no idea where all the pieces went. I spent about 30 mins looking for them and gave up. Now the keychain is completely useless but thankfully I found all of my keys. I know it’s just 10 bucks but don’t waste your money on this.

It kinda sorta worked but I ended up using some of the parts anyway. 😂 lol

When not winter time when I have coat pockets to store items in, it’s cumbersome to retrieve my house keys from my backpack most of the time. Especially in those instances where I *just* want to be inside my home already.I live in a major metro area where having a car is wasteful (especially with fuel prices being $6/gallon right now…), so having keys-in-hand since I just parked anyway isn’t a factor for me. And as a woman who’s everyday clothes don’t have pockets, over the years I got used to putting my lip balm, phone, and a little tube of hand sanitizer under my bra straps. It works for me. But… keys…. Ouch.I’ve been on the hunt for a discreet carrying-something for just my home and mailbox key, and after several failed, bulky, or cumbersome attempts. I finally stumbled on this. Although mine didn’t come with directions for the other little sticker-bits and such that come in the box, the rest is pretty self-explanatory. And now no boob-stabbing or a bulking rectangle (zippered key fob case, etc.) visible through my shirt. And, other than the phone with a card case and Popsocket on it, no one can tell there’s a secret stash of things in my bra until I need to utilize them. And life’s too short to care what anyone thinks anyhow. I’m just glad my boob no longer smells like copper, and is now protected from jabs, scrapes, pokes, and stabs from my keys.Thanks, boob-savers! 🥂5/5

Preface - I bought this in 2019 because my keys kept jingling everywhere I went and I needed to stop it. I saw many different ones but I bought this one based on the price, expecting it to be an entry-level key organizer to see if I hated it. It's been 3 years and it has held strong.Use and Care - It's been a daily driver, on a key ring with other metals hanging next to it (relevant for the leather quality) and it's definitely not been treated with care. I've never wiped, cleaned, polished, or otherwise cared for the holder. My keys are thrown into a bowl when I get home, tossed to friends, thrown on the ground, etc etc, so it's been through the ringer.Product state -The leather is completely unscathed. There's no scratches, no peeling, and very light fold wrinkles. The stitching has held beautifully and although it's a little dark now, I'm sure a quick wash would bring it's original white back without issue.The steel has also held it's own without issue. it's a little scratched (from the neighboring steel on the keyring) but it's still shiny and has no signs of rust, chipping, or bending (in the shaft).Cons -Tightening - Some people have trouble with the screw, and although it DOES come (a little) loose every now and then, it's not very common, and I've found it's best to put in an extra rubber washer to give your screw more room to squeeze before being stopped by metal, and every so often when you go to use your keys, give the screw a little turn with your thumb to check that it's not spinning.Size - If you have more than 7 keys, the holder gets to be a bit too thick for having in your pocket and becomes a metal cube basically.Overall, for <$10, it's worth it unless you're a janitor.

Fell apart after just a couple weeks’ use.I’m seeing countless reviews on these cheaper key organizers that say the same thing.Apparently if you want to use a key ring of this style, you have to invest some money in it.I don’t recommend this one.
