I have three other practice cylinders right now. Two Schlage's and one kwikset. The Kwikset's seam line is so awfully made though, that pretty much just pressing the pins flat will open it every time. It's a piece and it's going in the trash as soon as I gut it and take the parts out.
The only thing I don't like about the Schlage is how hard it is to rekey. I don't have a proper push-plug (follow plug, whatever you guys call them), and I don't have a proper set of lock tweezers so changing the pins is a nightmare.
Other than that, I do have the two Schlage's that I'm actually pretty happy with.
Maybe I'll just stick with these.
