Skeptical but gave it a go….better than the OEM
I had a need to replace my OEM garage door keypad from Liftmaster as the keypad had become non-responsive. This was the second time I needed to replace this in the 6 years since installation. In both instances the keypad had become less and less responsive over time. Before buying this unit I looked into the cost of the OEM replacement on Amazon and it was approximately $50. To me that was quite expensive especially as it appeared the unit wouldn’t last for that long. After a little research I opted for this unit based on >800 reviews and roughly 4.5 star rating.My experience of the install was great. Took me less than 5 minutes for the install including detachment of the defective old unit. I think the instructions were pretty clear. In my case on my Liftmaster motor unit on the garage ceiling there was a “learn” button that had to be pressed following activation of the new keypad. I found this process to take no more than 30 seconds and the unit was paired. I then lifted the front panel of the old defunct unit and removed the battery and unscrewed it to allow detachment from the frame of my garage door. I took the new unit that is previously paired, removed the battery then situated in exactly the same manner as the non functioning old unit. I found that the alignment was perfect so I just used the OEM screw id previously removed to screw the new unit to the garage door frame l, put the battery back in, cover back on and then entered my passcode to test door closure then pressed enter again to reopen. The unit worked perfectly.In terms of quality I’d say the plastic gauge is thicker than the original and feels high quality. I personally think it will be as robust as the original if not more so. A feature that I think is a big improvement over the original is that when the code is entered there is an audible beep sound, on the OEM you don’t hear this so the keys I think get pressed harder “to be sure” that the keys are activated and I think that this in turn leads to the keypad failing over time. As consequence I think the ability to hear a key being pressed will actually contribute to the longevity of this unit. The keypad is also backlit but instead of a yellow backlighting this units is redder and I think easier to see in the bright sunshine as well as at night.Overall I’m very pleased I didn’t spend the extra $30 for the OEM and think this a better value and an improvement on that. If this unit lasts only 3 years like the OEM as at $20 it’s a bargain; I’d say though that I’m optimistic it’ll last for at least five if not more. A good buy folks….highly recommend.

Easy to install - no issues!
Moved into a rental complex that did not provide a keypad which was extremely inconvenient. Decided to try the generic keypad before purchasing the name brand because it was much less expensive and could be delivered same day. It was very easy to set up. I was able to create a code Fairly simply with no issues at all connecting to my power lift machine. Then we were able to attach the keypad using the adhesive since it’s a rental. If it falls off, we will mount it with a screw. The only downside is you have to enter the code and press enter to close the garage. You cannot just press enter. But from my understanding, this was the same on the name brand keypad as well so for a third of the cost, in a rental community, this is a no-brainer and it comes with batteries. Easy to install and easy to operate. Definitely recommend.

Flawless Install with a 2008 Craftsman (Red Sync Button)
I spent over 2 hrs trying to program my old Craftsman exterior garage panel and failed miserably. It would not sync to save but life.I bought this item and got it working in 5min. It flawlessly synced with my 2008 Red-Button Craftsman with ease and almost mounted directly into the old wall fitting. 100% a great value for your money, adds secure access to your garage, and has a durable material build.Definitely worth the money and a must-try!

Need to enter the code to close
Great price and works as it should. Nice lighted keypad. Was easy to install and connect. My only complaint is that the code needs to be entered again in order to close the door instead of just pushing any button.

Easy install!
I’m very happy with this opener! Our old opener died after many years of use and this one was so much easier to program than the last one. I’ve never had a problem with it opening- it works really well and no issues with connection. It fit perfectly over the spot from the old opener, which was great since that meant I didn’t have to patch holes. We’ll see how the battery holds up, so far no issues! Highly recommend!

Good replacement for the original
Works great. Easy to set up. I like that it makes a beep each time a number is touched so you know it's activated. It cost a few more dollars than the others but it seems to be worth it.

It works as expected but can be difficult to setup
Works and easy to set up IF you have a portable door opener, almost impossible if you have lost that device.

Not reliable
Was easy to setup but does not work sometimes despite the correct pin. Have started to carry the garage remote as this keypad opener is not reliable and no one wants to be locked out. A few times pushing the button hard makes it work but as I said it is not reliable. Will look for a better option.Follow up. The seller has reached out to me following my review with an assurance to resolve issues I mentioned and also refunded my purchase. Due to the prompt response of the seller I am upgrading my review to four stars.
