1.0 out of 5 stars A Temporary Lift, September 3, 2004

This opener works fine for a short time, but when it goes there is no middle ground. The built in (annoying) feature that freezes the keypad for 30 seconds if you hit the wrong number is the same feature that makes it impossible to recover when a number starts to go bad. If it doesn't work, you can't try again for 30 seconds and, after the 3rd try, it won't work again until you open the door from the inside. Mine worked correctly for less than a year. It is poorly made and poorly thought out.

2.0 out of 5 stars Lousy instructions make installation a pain, March 6, 2005

Nowhere in the instructions are you advised to perform a very necessary step -- start by deprograming the Liftmaster garage opener AS WELL as deprogram the Clicker. As a computer literate operator I eventually tumbled to this solution after several futile installation attempts.

Of course, now you have to take your car visor remotes and reprogram them as well to the new Liftmaster code, but this is straightforward. Would it really have hurt the feelings of the instruction authors to have included these simple steps?

The cover that slides up to expose the buttons has no finger grips; you have to press hard against the cover and rely on friction. My Clicker is under a significant overhang, so I just leave the cover up. There are much more elegant designs.

The Clicker, however, works well. I note there are some durability questions, and only time will tell whether I encounter them. Battery issues that leave people unable to enter are probably the operator's fault - change the battery every Fall just as you do for smoke alarms. I managed to lock myself outside the house in winter weather, while in shirtsleeves, so my first step thereafter was to install a Clicker. I'm satisfied with the results, but dismayed by the incomplete instructions.

2.0 out of 5 stars It works - But only for a while, May 31, 2004

This review is from: Chamberlain CLK1 Clicker Universal Garage Door Opener with Keyless Entry (Tools & Home Improvement)

I've now purchased two of these openers and each went out after only a couple of years. When it was new, it worked well but be prepared, it will fail when you need it most. My most recent failure was when my wife went out walking and a storm came up. She was unable to get back in the house becasue "The Clicker" was dead.

I'm replacing mine today....but with another brand.
