Loboo Idea Transparent Padlock, 50mm Training Lock Professional Cutaway Inside View of Practice Keyed Padlocks Training Skill Pick for Locksmith with 2 Keys

It fits it's purpose perfectly, it's here to demonstrate. Obviously it's weak and therefore can be broken easily if you tried.

Really poor quality, if you are new to the picking game, don't buy this, it will only frustrate you. The main barrel of the lock uses extremely soft metal (not sure it's even brass), so even light pressure on a tension bar will distort it and causes it to bind. I deliberately pushed it harder, and the center of the barrel sheared. I have multiple tension bars and used a light/slim version which will typically bend or break before you get anywhere near damaging a lock.... This lock is pretty useless apart from showing how pins inside a lock operate, which you can get in a simple Internet search anyway. Avoid.

Locks are pieces of precision engineering and this is reflected in the price for even the most basic examples. In other words you get what you pay for. The Loboo Idea Transparent Padlock is inexpensive. You might even say cheap and this is confirmed by its tolerances. Indeed it's the cheapest lock on Amazon. However, the excitement of taking the padlock and two keys out of the box soon turns to disappointment when you first try to put it to use. The keys fit the lock with difficulty. When you do get them to operate the lock it is nigh near impossible to close again. But persevere. Polish the keys with a bit of emery cloth or file to remove the rough edges. Lubricate the cylinder and hasp with PS88 lock lubricant. Not oil. (Use spray furniture polish at a pinch.) That done your disappointment may very well turn to delight. I know it worked for me. Knowing this would I buy again? At this price --- you bet

I see a lot of complaints on here, and if you actually need one of these to begin picking on is a debate onto it's self, BUT if you decide you want one, then this is a great model and does exactly what it's meant to do. YES, this lock opens very easily and is much more forgiven than a real lock, but all beginner or practice locks are, this model is no different. What it does offer is a great view to see what you are doing, being able to see yourself reaching the pins, etc. I quickly progressed beyond this lock, but without it I'm not sure my progress would have been anywhere near as quick! So in my book it did the job it's meant to do, and I will be keeping it to show friends who are interested.

My main problem with this padlock is that it is very very very very easy to pick. The barrel where the key fits in is very slack - when you put your tension wrench in it just flops about. (no jokes please) it doesn't mirror a proper lock at all. When you manage to get purchase with the wrench and then rake with a pick it will just open. You could pick this lock with a bent pin (i have). It is i suspect more of a teaching aid than i useful device. I am a fairly experienced (amateur) lock picker so i bought this to keep me sharp - i am very disappointed with it. I will give it to a budding picker who will no doubt find it helpful.

Bought for grandson who wanted to pretend to be a locksmith. Lock ideal as he can see how the mechanism works

Have not tried to pick it yet as my picking kit has not arrived yet but the lock seems sturdy and good quality

Avoid. Useless for training purposes. Quality is rubbish and feels nothing like a real padlock. Requires 1 pin to be set to open. Parts of the inner lock are falling apart already with the slightest tension.

Calidad precio esta bien no es lo que me esperaba porque no veo bien los movimientos pero bueno por lo menos para practicar un poco sirve
