Title: Works great!
Review: Bought this to replace a similar unit that does not have Wi-Fi functionality. It took some work to get it installed, but wasn't too hard, and the directions were easy to follow. I like the ability to ensure the garage door is closed and to schedule it to close at a specified time.

Title: Quiet garage door opener with tons of features at a great price!
Review: I replaced a 15 year old 1/2 hp Chamberlain LiftMaster chain drive motor unit, with this one. I purchased the unit from Amazon, and had a local garage door company install for a nominal fee. (I didn't feel comfortable replacing the motor unit myself)So, I can't speak to the ease of installation, or replacement installation... other than to say, it only took 30 minutes for the local garage door company's technician to replace the new Chamberlain motor unit + interior wall mounted controller + exterior keypad, & also programmed the new car remotes/controllers. All in 30 minutes.As part of that installation, the local technician used my existing single one-piece rail & full chain system, that was already in place from my older unit. He just replaced the motor unit as part of the assembly.Which brings me to my 2 star rating for "sturdiness" -- Before replacing only the motor unit, he explained to me that this newer unit... while it *does* come with a rail and a chain system in the box... the new unit rail is not a single, one-piece rail (obviously, based on the box size)... it's a rail system comprised of 5 attaching parts. Which could be more prone to failure, than a single one-piece rail system.Additionally, the chain that came with this new unit is a 80/20 chain system. It's about 80% of actual chain, and the other 20% is tied together with a steel thread. Which obviously is not as strong/resilient as a full chain system.The technician literally told me: "Your existing single piece rail & single piece chain will have a longer life than this new motor unit you just bought."For that reason... for "sturdiness" of the overall product, I ranked 2 stars.As for the motor unit itself... I am very pleased with it.- Installation was a breeze, if you're replacing an existing 1/2 hp Chamberlain LiftMaster motor unit.- It is MUCH more quiet than the previous generation of Chamberlain LiftMaster motor units.- This model has two lights, as opposed to a single light in my previous Chamberlain unit. It makes a world of difference.- The myQ app that works with your home's wifi is for the most part, very good. You can control open/close of the garage door from anywhere, and you can setup alerts on your smartphone to notify you anytime the garage door is opened/closed. You can even add "guests" to the myQ mobile app, so they can open/close your garage door... say, if you're out of town & they're taking care of your house/pets/etcThat said about the myQ wifi app, some "drawbacks" that I've noticed about the myQ wifi app:1. The myQ app does not have a function to turn on the motor unit's lights, nor engage the "lock" function of the motor unit... from the app (as you would using the interior wall mounted controller)2. The myQ app is VERY persistent about suggesting you to setup your wifi controlled garage door opener, to allow for Amazon deliveries. In the initial setup to connect the unit to your wifi, the phone app will say "setup complete" and then take you a screen that prompts to allow for Amazon deliveries, for Prime members. You have to close out of the app setup to decline allowing Amazon delivery access, without knowing whether it really is completed (it is).Some other notes:- This newer unit uses a different frequency than the older generation(s) of Chamberlain LiftMaster units. Expect to need: new car remotes, new interior wall mounted controller, new exterior keypad. Although our Chamberlain universal car remotes we bought 5 years ago from a local hardware store, they could still be programmed to control this new unit.- While the pictures of the interior wall mounted controller doesn't show it, the interior wall mounted controller DOES include a "lock" function (hidden under the fold-up open/close button), as well as a "light" functionAll in all, I am very pleased with this new Chamberlain LiftMaster unit.

Title: Very nice Garage Door opener
Review: I really like this garage door opener. The only downside was there was not much documentation on the installation side. However a quick purview of YouTube found a nice installation video. It was a little longer than my previous opener which required me to put up new mounts on the ceiling. Other than that it was a smooth install. The opener was very easy to connect to the houses wifi and the phone app works flawlessly. It is quiet and smooth. A very nice opener for the money.

Title: Very quiet quality door opener
Review: When installed according to the manufacturer's recommendations this door opener works flawlessly. I purchased this model for my 10' insulated steel door and it works exactly as advertised. The motor lifts this door with ease and is extremely quiet. Our garage is attached to our home and we cannot hear the door operate in either direction. Easily as quiet as other belt drive models I have installed. this unit comes with 2 mobel transmitters and a remote wall transmitter allowing for access to your garage from anywhere within range of the transmitters. This model comes with myQ app technology allowing me to control the door from anywhere without WiFi. This model also works with Amazon Key which helps keep our delivered packages dry and safe. The amazon driver scans our packages and the door opens automatically.This unit was very simple to install as a new unit, not a replacement unit. I was able to install and operate in approximately 3.5 hours. I will highly recommend this garage door opener to both homeowners and professional installers.

Title: Direct head replacement for old unit.
Review: Unit arrived well boxed with no damage. Purchased to replace 24 yr old Raynor navigator. (Also made by Liftmaster) Previous unit was chain drive with one piece rail system. I decided to try and replace just the head and use the existing Rail and chain along with the existing electronic eyes and wiring. replacement took about 30 minutes and another 30 minutes to link up controllers, keypad, andMyQ. All items functioned normally!! I saved all items in case of any failures, but I don't anticipate any. IT is chain drive which is louder but it is still quieter than old motor, and there was no headaches on setting up new rail chain system.

Title: Worth every penny
Review: Bought 2 of these to replace my 24 year old Chamberlain/Liftmaster garage door openers. Both ironically started not receiving signals at the same time. The description can be a tad vague. This is a COMPLETE garage door opener kit that also includes a keypad for mounting outside of your garage door. This was a direct bolt on replacement from the previous openers. Installation took about 45 mins per side. Set up was absolutely the easiest part. The MyQ feature is next level. All of my clickers were able to be setup from the app, rather than standing on a ladder and pressing the learn button on the opener itself. Great quality product, I highly recommend that if your in need of a new garage door opener, buy this one.

Title: Great improvement over the 10 year old version.
Review: The product was well packaged and arrived promptly. I installed it in a couple of hours replacing a 10 year old unit. It is quieter and smoother than the old one was when it worked. The MyQ is great, however it takes some patience to program (maybe due to me being more of an old school person).

Title: This is a great buy!
Review: Everything worked great. The installation video was so easy to follow. The written instructions were no good. If you follow the video step by step it's a snap. This one was the same brand but totally different rail parts. If you take your time and not rush you will be very happy with this one.

Review: The opener was installed by a professional installer. It works perfectly and very quietly. My only issue is that the photo of the product and description is not correct. A wireless keyless opener was not included. I advised the supplier of the error. They acknowledged their mistake and offered me a $50 rebate which I accepted. I have not yet received the $50.

Review: Hasta ahora no ha fallado, no hace tanto ruido como el anterior, es muy practico con el abridor de pared y la aplicación, yo mismo lo instalé, me costó trabajo para subirlo y fijarlo al techo, hice una adaptación al trenecito para poner barillas para que abriera dos hojas del estacionamiento, lo que si me costó fue la programación cierre-apertura, tuve que llamar al técnico, lo solucionó en minutos, pero bueno.
