For what they cost, I don't mind standing and holding the rocker switch down while I watch the level.

X2. It's not that much trouble at all to level one up on your own.

When I first looked at the video, I thought that it was a true leveling system with rear jacks. Then realized that it merely raises or lowers the landing gear to level the rig.

Definitely not worth what they want to do that, in my opinion.

I purchased one and would do so again if I had a "do over"!. It makes connecting, disconnecting and leveling very easy. I just push the button and am free to do other things. (near by of course).

It was pretty easy to install too. I installed it right inside a basement door which also means that if I remember to lock the basement, it prevents anyone from operating the landing gear. (not sure how big a problem that actuall is, but I did wory about it sometimes.

Thanks for posting back! I've heard other folks say that they like it. My landing gear are painfully slow- it'd be a nice addition for me. :-)
