BRAND NEW IN BOX RYOBI’s smart garage door openers are the most innovative in the industry. However, they’re also the newest, so they’re still a work in progress. RYOBI has been making garage openers for just a few years, and the RYOBI GD126 is only a second-generation product. As such, a lot of things don’t work as well as they would on a more developed product. Future versions of this opener have the potential to provide what we expect from a garage door opener. The RYOBI GD126 costs around $200, which is average for the garage openers in our comparison. The best thing about RYOBI’s garage door openers is that they have accessory ports, and the GD126 has four. These ports allow you to use the opener for functions other than opening the garage door or lighting your garage. Currently available accessories include a Bluetooth speaker, a retractable extension cord, a fan, a tire inflator, a laser park assist function and a security camera. These accessories add costs ($38 to $99), but they offer extra features not found on models from established brands, such as the Chamberlain B970 and the Genie MachForce Connect.
