Lock is sturdy, slightly longer than most so it fits well around stand/wheel/frame, and I used the cable to attach the back wheel. However, after 2 weeks of mild use, the key began sticking. I spent 15 minutes trying to unlock it one day, went back inside to get the remaining keys in case it was a key issue, and spent another 5 wrestling with it. After finally getting it open, I peered inside and saw that the key mechanism slots weren't aligned exactly and were loose. Had to return it. Not sure if I just got a lemon, but I'm not willing to risk having a locked up bike far from home, or a bike unable to be locked up. I ordered a different one.

My opinion of this D-Lock cannot be any lower in terms of practicality and reliability.
I was generally quite pleased initially as it wasn't too heavy and was quite compact when it was placed in its bracket - the downside was that it had its limitations as to what you could lock it up to as it didn't reach very often. However, over time the D-Lock would fly out onto the road while cycling despite being firmly secured on its bracket. That itself proved to be enough of a let down and quite a danger to as a cyclist and to other road users. I fixed this problem by buying a high-spec bracket which comfortably secured the D-Lock for the remaining time I had it.
But here is where it gets terribly worse. It proved to be a nightmare locking and unlocking the D-Lock and the keys seemed cheaply made. Eventually, I found out the hard way as the key snapped inside the D-lock key slot while I was trying to unlock it, so it then was completely jammed and I couldn't use my bike. What made it worse is that it was late at night, I was far from my place in a fairly dodgy area. Had to get a taxi back home, to then return the next morning to find that my bike was no longer there and that the "Master Lock" was in two pieces. The bike I had in question was by no means cheap - cost me hundreds of pounds originally.
Also to mention that I googled "Key jammed in D-lock" to see if there was a way to fix it myself that night and this very lock came up in the first 5 searches with the same problem!
I will be pursuing this through both Amazon and Master Lock along with Trading Standards as this is in no way a trivial matter. I've lost a mode of transport and getting to work. Therefore, I in no way recommend this D-lock to anyone!

I purchased this lock in October 2010 at a very good price. All was well until March 2011 when the key became stuck in the lock and eventually sheared off while I attempted to remove the key. It was lucky that the key sheared while I was unlocking it in preparation of locking the bike to a metal railing, as if it had happened when trying to unlock my bike from the railing, I would have been stranded over 20 miles from home.
After this happened, I read some of the reviews of this product on Amazon and found that I was not the only person to suffer from this problem. Therefore I can only deduce that it is either a design or manufacturing defect and I have submitted a claim under the Consumer Protection Act of 1987.
My rating can only be the lowest possible due to this problem.

DO NOT BUY THIS LOCK!
I bought this lock on the grounds that it seemed to offer the most reasonable value (cheapest?!) for a gold standard D-lock. Read more

Strong lock. Cheap casing, but keeps thieves away.
The orange and black plastic casing around the flat side of the lock cracked within a week of use -- probably from bouncing around in my metal basket. Read more

Like the last reviewer the slots weren't aligned, for me when I received it, but with a bit of twisting the key around this was sorted. Read more
