Which apparently was leftover Black Friday deals but it looks different. The deal was posted a couple of days after I bought a garage door opener and when I went back to check when I had to pick up some other stuff, sure enough there were some on the clearance shelf when both Brickseek and the HD sites both listed none in stock. So if you're interested I'd go check in the store regardless of what the sites say. I ended up just keeping what I originally got.
For me it took about a day to install with no prior experience and followed these two videos:

I did need some help when it came to alignment and making sure things were straight. Other than that it's possible to be a one person job.
My main issues and complaints would be that what opener comes with assumes that you're doing a direct replacement. For my case I was replacing a twenty or thirty year old garage door opener that didn't have the door sensors and never noticed how the previous existing hanging brackets were kind of funny.
So from what I recall you may need:
-extra angle brackets
-extra bolts-in hindsight I could've reused some of the bolts used for the extra garage door opener
-extra lag screws
-18 gauge/2 strand wire, I think typically bell wire which none of the hardware stores around me had and used thermostat wire instead. In hindsight I could've reused the wire from the previous garage door opener but didn't realize it beforehand when I tore it out. It was old anyways
It would also probably help to have a tall enough ladder to rest the garage door opener on close to the hanging brackets. Which we didn't have, so it's still doable without it. (you still need a ladder)
And if you're not able to reuse the bracket on your door, you may need to pick up carriage bolts and maybe a bit to drill the holes for the bolts too
Also in hindsight I think the point of placing the bracket for the rail holder about two inches above the highest point of the garage door travel and then resting the rail on a 2x4 or something when you're attaching the garage door opener to the ceiling is so that you can roughly have everything aligned without other people helping.
So if you're doing a direct replacement where you can reuse wiring, brackets placement is the same, etc, I would guess this would be pretty easy.
Installing the brackets, running wiring, etc isn't hard. But considering the time it took me and how I had to go back to HD a couple times to pick up some other stuff(I think mainly thermostat wire and angle brackets), it might've been worth paying someone $100 to $200 for.
Also with the camera, the model I got didn't come with one. But if you can angle it outside of your garage door windows I can see some value to it. Where in our neighborhood we have people messing with cars at night. Also my kids like to play in the garage and driveway. So having a camera there would potentially be useful.
