LiftMaster 371LM Security+ 1-Button Garage Door Opener Remote Control - Connects to App - Works only with post-2005 LiftMaster and Craftsman Garage Door openers with a Purple Learn Button 315MHz

WOW! Easy 1-2-3 Instructions. Worked right away! I Should have purchased a long time ago!

I’m so pleased that I was able to find the Liftmaster brand remote for my garage door opener. It was easy to set up, works well and is durable. The generic remote (from the previous homeowner) was flimsy and unreliable.

Bought this as we lost our other remote and it was very easy to set up! Took less then 5 mins and works really good!

wokrks real nice

I have an Allister garage door opener. When my 30-year-old Multi-Code remote stopped working the opener, I replaced the battery, but that made no difference. I couldn't determine which had died -- the remote or the Multi-Code receiver -- and I figured that if I replaced one, I'd probably have to replace the other soon anyway. Liftmaster seemed to be well-rated and relatively inexpensive, so I ordered both the Liftmaster 371LM Remote and the LiftMaster 365LM Plug-In Receiver from Amazon. Both arrived the same day (although, oddly, by different means), and within an hour or so I had the garage door opener working again. I was able to plug the receiver into the same ceiling outlet as the opener, and the hardest part of the installation turned out to be stripping the ends of the wires so they could be attached to the terminals on the receiver and the opener -- i.e. the installation was easy! My only complaint is that the access panel on the receiver is a bit ornery to get on and off. But since there's no need to set pins to synchronize the receiver and the remote, I hope the need to get into the receiver will be extremely rare. Now the question is how long these units will last -- obviously not something I can answer this soon. (If they last 30 years, I would give them 5 stars.)

This remote came with our garage door opener newly installed in 2009. I replaced the battery maybe twice - roughly every 5 yrs as is normal. The battery was easy to replace and it is still working as of today. We had a second vehicle which had a built-in learning remote, but when we replaced that vehicle the next one didn't have one built in, so I had to buy a second one. The exact numbers on the orignal matched this one, but the price was $29, and I saw many that were compatible with prices as low as $11 - for a 2-pack! So I bought that.Quickly I realized why this one was $29 as opposed to $11 for two. The working range! The others I bought required me to be in my driveway literally right outside the door before I could open it when I arrived home. I sent those back, and shelled out the $29 for this one, and was happy when this remote worked from as far away as the original that we still use. So I've been enjoying clicking the remote from my visor when I am half way down the street coming home, that is what I've grown used to and is why I bought this one.I did read most of the 1-Star ratings prior to buying this one, looking for any trends. I will say that regarding shopping for a compatible remote, the one downside isn't with the product, but the fact that you need to read everything from all places to understand what you are getting. For example, The title, the bullet line facts, the comparison chart which may not always exist but it did with this one, which gave the working range of 164 feet for this one, the highest of the bunch listed, showing the one I bought first having only 50 foot range, Then the manufacture writeup which you have to scroll down to see, and it is in the really small font, contains yet other critical info not mentioned in the main writeup. It does mention only works with those with purple button, LiftMaster brand only, manufactured between 2005 and later, again only if it has a purple button. One 1-star rating said their's has a purple button but it didn't work, LiftMaster brand, manufactured in 1993 and they stated the year range was not mentioned - perhaps it didn't when they purchased it, but as I said you must read all of the various sections to see that - I think it was only in the small font manufacturing blurb far down the product page.If you are still reading, now you get to look at some pictures. They show just how far away this remote works (for me, maybe it depends also on the main unit receiver antenna (small 10 inch soft wire) and if you don't have a lot of EMF interference appliances or 5G transmitters in your area. But I am impressed by how far up my street I can click the remote and see my door start to open.Photos explained (3). I click just as I reach the white vinyl fence on the left side of the street. I hold the remote button down for maybe 1 second. When I reach my mailbox, only then I can actually see my garage door, and it is opening already so I stop pressing. Other photos show different perspectives of my house, where the garage door is, also you can see from 3 angles about how far it works. I estimate it to be about 150-175 feet. The comparison chart shows this one to be 164 feet, so that's about what I get (See photos)

Works great!!

This item will NOT be returned!! It totally works for my garage door with the purple button on the back! Shout out to the lady that has a Revlon that showed us her pictures and left a review!
