I came home to a door about 75% shut. When I try to open or

take it down and look at it, but I'm pretty sure I'm in the
market for a new unit.

What's good out there?

Go to Sears and pick up a belt drive unit.
Sounds like two problems- jamming door and burned out motor or stripped
gear in the opener. Make sure the door opens and closes smoothly when
operated manually, before installing a different opener.
