Excellent installation instructions, straightforward installation, quiet operation
This 1/2 HP garage door opener is a fantastic value. My mom was quoted $1800 by the local overhead door tech to replace the springs and motors for her two single-car garage doors. She was antsy to have it done and almost paid it, but I got two of these for $138 each, and just got back from installation. We weighed the doors on a scale to make sure it was within-spec of the motors (they were: springs were fine) and we were able to re-use the optical sensors and wall-mounted button (and their wiring) from the old unit. It took under 3 hours for the first one, and way less for the second. I am super happy with this product, and saved my mom $1500. This opener even auto-programmed itself to recognize the old remote, so now we have an extra.

Easy to install and quiet in operation
The instructions provided for installing this unit are good. It is an easy job that can be done by one person. Compared with an older Craftsman opener with the same power rating, it is much quieter in operation and operates smoothly. I have heavy wooden garage doors, so if I were to do it again I would opt for the 3/4 hp unit.

Good garage door opener.
Shipped as promised, installation and programming went well. You need to have good mechanic skills to do it right. Unit runs quieter than previous opener. Very pleased.

New Genie garage door opener
We’re in our 70’s, took 2 days to install. Opener is finally working. It’s light not as heavily constructed as the old Stanley which was installed in 1985. We’ll see how long this Genie lasts. Be sure to install all parts including eyes. Everything has to be installed in order for the opener to work properly. Buy new wire what they send is cheap and useless. Also get new wire clips especially if you are attaching your wire( from the wall button to the motor) on sheet rock, the clips they send pull right out of the sheetrock. They’re fine for going into wood, but otherwise useless. These are the reasons for 4 stars. Otherwise the motor is quiet and runs smoothly. So glad it’s finally installed

A direct replacement, easy installation.
I had a lightning storm take out my original garage door opener, and this kit was a direct replacement.The fit was perfect and just dropped in to the old space. I found out by troubleshooting that I also had to replace the sensors, which came in the pack. I kept the chain and the track from the original. (I’ll keep the new ones as a backup) This was extremely easy to do and the programming was very easy as well. I think my son and I took about an hour to replace the motor and sensors. (I used some old wire to suspend the existing chain sprocket when in pulled the old motor out.)The instructions are clearly written and all you have to do is tell it how far down and how far up to go. It seems like it works better than the original did, but that’s probably because I tightened the chain using instructions. This kit also included the wire for the sensors.The estimates for replacements were a minimum of $500 so this was a fantastic value. I put a surge protector in line with the garage door opener so this will not happen again. I hope this helps.

Super Quiet
Came with everything you needed including the hardware. Instruction were good. You could access help videos if needed but I did not have a need to use them. The door itself is super quiet in both directions, and what a surprise compare to the old one, Wow! The control buttons work good and you really need instructions for the set up. Not that it is hard its just a process. For example, instead of hard stops on the tract to control how far you raise or lower the door its all done with the controls on the unit. Again its not hard just a process that the instruction steps take you threw.

Does NOT work after 1 day of operation. I really wish I could put no stars!
I bought this exact opener because the reviews said it was easy to install. It was anything but easy. This is coming from a person who has never installed one before, knows squat about these things. I did not know that professionals were writing the reviews. Once I got the opener up the directions to actually program it are impossible to understand. At this point, I have to press and hold the button on the wall until the garage door is down for a minute before I let go of the button or else the door goes right back up.It is very quiet, I do like that. Pros should id themselves, it would mean different for me.

Works great. Quiet

My previous opener (different model) decided to shred its workings so a quick purchase of this moderately priced unit brought the product to my door in only a few days. Very straight forward instructions and easy assembly. Able to use existing wiring and ceiling mounting hardware so a fairly short installation time with basic tools. Programming was dead simple. Unit runs smooth and quiet.
