Anderson Camper Levelers
I have come across the coolest things since electric awnings. Anderson Camper Levelers “Dead-ON” Leveling for heights from ˝ “ to 4”s. I just got a set of 2 for just a hair more then another set of LynxLevelers. Now I have my Lynx for the jacks and the Anderson’s for leveling. Has anyone else used these and what are your thoughts?

I saw a camper using something like that recently, but only on one wheel, and it was backed up pretty far onto that thing. It didn't look very chock-able at that point. The Anderson setup looks quite a bit better, but pretty pricey for a set of two. And I'd *still* probably put them on the wrong side from time to time.

I have no experience with this product. It looks like a good product to do what it's designed to do. I do think that the way it's used could present a hazard. To pull forward (or back) onto an inclined ramp, then use your hands to push a chock in place on the downhill side with a potential for the trailer to roll could be dangerous. If the trailer should happen to roll and your hand is under the chock or between it and the tire, it could spell disaster.
Removing the chock would also present a potential problem in a moment of carelessness.
I'd think it could turn into an injury waiting to happen if any distractions should draw your focus away from what you're doing when installing or removing them.
They may be the best thing since peanut butter, but they do look dangerous.

I'm interested to
Hi,
I'm going to pick up a pair of these when I pick my TT up in two weeks.
I plan to side to side level one side of the TT using these levellers with chocks, then apply chocks to the other side of the TT tires, then apply extended x chocks between both axels.
I'm wondering how well they work when there used to the full 4" side, kind of seems like they would be teetering on the edge.
Also if you need more the 4", what do you do, put wood blocks under? I'm not sure.
I plan to avoid putting my hands near the tire and use a rubber mallet to put in the chocks and knock them out, but I guess that why there called accidents.

I am going to buy a pair as soon as I can find them as well ,as for the safety aspect of them I will continue using my x-chocks . They seem to be a great idea.

Price
Thanks for all the replies, sorry its been a crazy week. I am an Amazon junky. The lynx blocks are 31.96 and I paid 44. for this set up. But looking at the two side by side the Anderson product blows the blocks away. I am a big proponent of use the tool for the job. Blocks for the jacks and Anderson for the leveling.oh and just an FYI I would keep my hands away but there not a ramp. The main part follows the curve of the tire, Then you put a Chock on the shorter side to secure it. Lynx are more dangerous in this as you can not chock the tires unless you buy the chock that is made for it. Just my 2 Cents love the replies, lets keep them going, maybe we can help some of the new-beys. and F6 if you put them on the wrong side you don't have to rebuild your ramp lol takes 2 sec to back off and switch sides.
