Craftsman Garage Door Opener 1/2 hp Chain Drive, 2 Security+® 3-function Remote Controls

Great Value

Installation and programming fairly simple. Completely satisfied with this opener and glad I purchased with the complete accessory package. Plus, two lights on opener adds much needed lighting to a larger garage.

Easy to install, quiet and smooth.

It took around 2hrs. from start to finish, nothing major a do it yourselfer couldn'nt figure out. Read instructions and take your time. I was more than happy it was on sale and it appears to run very smooth and quiet so far!

This one replaced a 20 year old Craftsman.

Install was reasonable, but need to follow the Homelink directions exactly or you could get frustrated easily. I did.

Security+ 315 MHz

Purchased and installed April 2013. So far the motor function as expected. New Transmitter/Receiver 315 MHz frequency are not compatible with older controllers or the HomeLink in vehicles. Therefore the 3 Stars rating.

Smooth, quiet operation!

Easy assembly easy install Couldn't be any happier

After reading reviews we admit we were a little apprehensive about attempting to install ourselves. We purchased 2 openers for our garage doors that have never had openers attached. we started from scratch. The assembly was surprisingly easy to follow. Installation was a breeze! Both are working perfectly and we are loving the better security. Not one part was missing on either one.instructions were easy to understand.

Works Perfect

The directions are good and easy to follow

Garage Door Opener Works Great

I now have three of the Sears Garage door opener's. Two chain drive and one Belt drive. They all work great and would recommend them to anyone.

Item Good. Installation Scheduling Bad

I ordered two of these garage door openers for my garage. They were shipped promptly and had no problems with that. However I scheduled the installation according to Sears website and the day before it was scheduled they called to say it had to be delayed. The woman said that the online scheduler doesn't take into consideration already scheduled appointments so its never up to date. That was really upsetting to me. Why have a scheduler available if its never correct? Sears really needs to fix this issue. Very unhappy with the installation scheduling. I will say once the installers did come, they were great. Very fast and good quality work.

Worked great when self installed.

Worked smoother than previous "T" bar garage door opener. Programming keypad entry was easy. Programming car installed opener more complex.

Dependable garage door opener

I have used this garage door opener at many of my clients for years. Never have any issues, simple to install and works all the time. Nice to have a product you can depend on and not have to worry about it.

Missinformed

After getting the door opener installed I began putting the chain on and found it was a foot too long for this opener. I called several numbers only to be told by all that I would have to purchase a new chain for almost half the cost of the complete door opener. I had no choice so I ordered the chain only to realize after I installed it that it too was approx. 6 inches too long. After about an hour of adjusting and cutting I finally got my opener to work but now have more mony invested in it than it would have cost me for a very nice screw driver type, I have used Sears door openers for over 25 years but will never purchase another after this.

We have had 5 and would buy one again.

Only the complicated instructions dropped the 5 star.

garage door opener works great and was priced right

This is just another fine item from Sears. Got this for our neighbor as they were having a hard time opening the door because of their age. Now they are really enjoying how it works.

Works great

Smooth operation and easy to schedule installation online.

Garage Door Opener

The opener is very quiet and moves up and down very smoothly. Easy to operate and program. Having an outside keypad mounted on the perimeter of the garage eliminates having to carry the remote control with you when working in and out of the garage. I did get the warranty just in case. Nothing is perfect, but I am in hopes that I'll never have to use it. The Craftsman brand has been pretty good which is why I bought this brand. My prior garage door opener was a Craftsman also and I had it for over ten years.

QUIET AND EASY TO INSTALL
