Does it have a shock to lift the lid?

Nope. Also be advised that locking mechanism takes up airspace inside. Can fit a compact pistol no problem, but limits storing more than one spare mag and/or flashlight. I like it for what it is, just be aware of limits on usable space.

It does not. When you punch in the combination and turn the knob the lid only comes up one quarter of an inch

No. It's not very big but fits my important paperwork, money, a few pieces of jewelry and my smith and Wesson governor. Which is all the space I needed

No shock or other assist to lift the lid and it is a solid/heavy lid. Not a problem for my use.

Tes, you can lift lid w/ hand (not engaging the pedal system) and it stays open.

No, not in my experience. The lid is a hard plastic, I can't see that ever happening.

Yes. There is a wee yellow button that pops up as the pressure increases. It is situated just ahead of the yellow locking switch on the handle. As the pressure falls, it also drops back level with the handle and you know it is safe to open the lid.

Yes. when closed and you un- latch to open it open automatic. So when closing you have to push down on lid to close. In other words the lid wont fall shut by its self you have to push down on the lid to close.

Yes the lid opens up. The center top of the lid is a flat plastic piece that fits in to the rest of it. Rotate it slightly and it will pop off. The first time it may be tight. Mine came open after I dropped it on the floor =(:-O) but it was fine afterwards. Take careful note of where everything is - there is a spring that you need to be in place. Once the top is open, you can run water or a brush over it, because yes, it does get that old coffee vibe on it.

There's nothing that holds the lid open. So when you lift it up you need to use your hand to keep the lid open otherwise it will close.

You can pop the lid off but if you do it a lot it will loosen and not be as secure.

I pressed yes on accident. It has a glass insert that you use as the other half of the shaker. Not the typical lid, its more shaped like a cup.

Yes, mine does. There is a stiffness to the lid so it even stays in position halfway open too!
1995455
yes. I just wish that it had a knob on the top of the lid for easier lifting of the lid

Yes! I have knocked it over and never a dropped spilled. Inside the lid there is a thin waxy like substance that when you put hot liquid in activates sealing it. If you tilt it while it is full I recommend waiting a moment to open it though as with the metal mesh strainer inside it takes a moment to drop back down into the cup.

Yes it does. It's just flimsier plastic than I expected. If you over-tighten it just a little sometimes it takes brute strength to unscrew the lid.

The lid is so light, it is very unlikely there would be any real injury it fell on them. Think of a plastic garbage can lid - that's what we're talking about. Also there is no clasp... the lid just rests on the wall frame unless you add a padlock. The hinge is a pop-tab and slot design. If you tried to really close the lid on something big, for example, a persons head, either (a) the lid would bend / crack or (b) the hinge tabs would pop out of the slots. But if I get the gist of your question, you wonder if this lid has gas shocks to keep it up. Most definitely it does not.

Yes - the stem connects through the top and is strong and thick enough to lift the lid. This is a terrific looking pot.

Definitely clicks when you put on the lid. Then the lid is somewhat loose while on. It would not come off if you shook it, it requires a little force to remove the lid. The lid is not airtight.

You do have to lift the lid up yourself. It is a hinged lid so it swings open like a sideways book.
