Chamberlain PD212D 1/2hp garage door opener
This opener is fairly easy to install, with mostly well-illustrated instructions overall, in spite of a couple of inconsistencies in the installation manual's text and in the parts drawings. The text instructions seem likely to have been written by someone who speaks English as a FIRST language too, which is unusual these days, and which helps to speed things along....The actual assembly of the main components and wiring the system are a breeze.

The quality of the parts OVERALL seems decent, although I noticed that a significantly lighter weight steel and smaller gauge fasteners are used for the bracketry and rail system than had been used with my older 1/3hp chain driven unit (20-25 years) which had also been Chamberlain-(Sears private labeled) model. That may be a part of why this new one still flexes considerably-in spite of the square cross section of the new rail (vs "t" section) and is actually louder in operation than the old one had been.

May Not Be So Easy To Install
My husband who is quite handy thought this product was not so easy to install. It really depends on your door and your current setup. The door sensor does not mount to the rail because our garage door hardware that extends beyond the track. In that case, you need creativity to mount the sensors to the garage walls(oftentimes concrete walls). The door won't work without the sensors. We had little clearance in the ceiling area. The directions state that you need two inches, but because of the hardware, you actually need a good 4 inches from the ceiling which we did not have. Also be sure to read the directions completely before you start as my husband made at least two trips to the hardware store in addition to his initial trip. Be sure to read the directions about reinforcing the door if it is not a solid door. You will need bracing for the door which will require some creativity.

Afterall is said and done, the door works well, quieter than our previous door, but...
Nice opener easy to install (if your handy)
The opener is a good quality. It will not support cfl lighting but a bulb is okay with me. The door button is big and has a separate light switch. I like this opener better than the screw drive I normally put in my rentals,it's a higher quality and it's not as loud.
