have never had a problem with any garage door opener. My other house
had one in use for 10 yrs or more from a local garage door company. The
one in This house has been in use almost 8 yrs from Sears.

I'm still using a Genie opener I installed in the early 70's and it's
on a door that's a bear to open and close with the opener - one piece
door with out enough overhead to really get the opener geometry right.
The screw bar bends slightly every time it starts the close cycle but
it keeps on working year after year. I've had nothing but good luck
with the Genie Brand openers.
