Very good, works great, good hardware, many features. I am very satisfied,

Updated September 2020: Just a quick update after over 3 years. I am still using this gate and gate opener as installed and it still works great. The only problem I've ever had was the batteries dying after more than 2 years. Replaced and still holding up. Do a good job with the wiring and it looks like you'll have an opener that will give you years of trouble-free service. I've added another gate and am about to get another one of these openers so I'm looking again. And the remote controls two

This thing looks doubly like a BMW

This thing looks doubly like a BMW. It works well, and you'll spend heaps of money on "upgrades" you'd like in the box, but you'll still be pretty complacent once this thing gets up and running. I know what I am! 1. Locking pin. This will prevent someone from unscrewing and taking away your controller.2. Zombie Castle. This will prevent someone from simply removing and manually opening the front support split pin.3. Brackets for a zombie lock. Don't drill your gate. They only promote rust.4…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Exterior

Works well. Installation will take some time, but it's worth it.

I have no experience with gate openers. I took my time with the installation to make sure I was doing it right. It took me a whole weekend. Maybe you can do it faster. But I'm very happy with the results. I should also note that I have a particularly difficult setup involving concrete poles, a concrete wall to make sure everything is clean, and a concrete driveway to figure out how to route the cable. It would be a lot easier if I had gravel or mud, not a wall and wooden posts. Very happy with…

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Minor issues

Works great and the company is very responsive

Look for this iznuV0DaAvU on YouTube. This is a 5 minute overview of my setup (medium install). Indicates the time of the video and some additional details. The attached video is from my CCTV system and does not show the installation. I've never owned a gate opener (or gate for that matter) - so take it for what it's worth. My main reason for choosing Ghost Controls over the much more popular Mighty Mule was the feedback. While many of these are subjective, there have been several reviews of…

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Upgradeable

Good gate opener! in Gate Openers

This review is for a TSS1 Automatic Gate Opener. For the impatient among us, here first: Pros: Good control lever, I like the design Decent quality hardware Easy to program the control panel Good instructions Easy to add other things (locks, vehicle sensors, manual lock/unlock buttons) Cons: A bit cumbersome to install took me almost a whole day. Honestly, it's just the nature of the animal. The control panel does not sync with the remotes installed in my older cars. $22 if you need to buy…

Pros
  • Consistent Test Results
