This was so easy to set up. Just push the button on your opener...watch for a flashing light....push the button on the remote...and voila!!!you're ready to open and close the door.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great on Overhead Door Legacy opener, August 31, 2007

By	Thucydides 1 (USA) - See all my reviews

I love my two-year old Overhead Door Legacy garage door opener, but a couple of weeks ago, I lost one of the remote transmitters (clicker) somehow and I got a nasty surprise. Seems that the Overhead Door people wanted to sell me the replacement for $39, plus state tax! I was determined to get this simple one-button remote for less than that.

My research turned up all kinds of confusing information, but I finally understood that Genie "Intellicode" and Overhead Door "Codedodger" technology is pretty much the same. After reading the specs on twelve different Genie remotes I decided to take a chance on this one, ordering it from Sanford & Son. Sanford & Son is amazing! I placed my order late on a Monday afternoon and the remote was in my hand with the delivery of the mail Thursday of the same week. And, there was no shipping charge!

Programming the remote took less than 60 seconds. It is a simple process of activating a "learn" function between the base unit and the remote (instructions are included). In appearance and function, the Genie and the Overhead Door remotes are identical, except for the wording on them.

Bottom line -- Instead of paying about $42 to buy a replacement Overhead Door remote locally, I bought this Genie remote from Sanford & Son for less than half that (special battery is included in the price) and it works perfectly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy, bulky, cheap, works!, November 21, 2007

By	R. Gupta (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It was easy to set up, took 15 seconds, and works from short distance. If you expect it to work from around the corner, look elsewhere!
Overall I am satisfied, found exactly what I wanted and paid for, arrived in 2 days!
