Really difficult to make a recommendation without understanding what your needs and wants are for safe #2. I just bought a Fort Know but because they allow you to customize their safes it's an avenue that can provide upgraded security, both fire and theft, for less than what you pay for their basic upper end models. I laid in a lot of steel including the "super trength" Knoxarmor and ending with 1" in the door and 13/16 in the body. However, I opted for their standard fire protection for several reasons.....std. fire protection is more than adequate for the average house fire and burn duration, the added fire protection significantly reduces available interior space and the weight, in my case, would exceed 2100lbs.
If you don't get the smooth shiny paint job and start with something like the Protector or Defender you reduce the cost about $400 just for paint difference.
Check them thoroughly and do your comparison homework before laying down extra dollars for the "look".
