I am interested in replacing my current garage door opener with a jackshaft style unit. The main motive is that this style of garage door opener will free up about 1' of ceiling space.

Does anyone have long-term experience with this type of unit or this particular brand/model? One of my friends has an 8500 at his shop and swears by it, but did mention that he experienced a control panel failure (which there is now a warranty extension for).
Thanks!
