Trailer aid plus vs Andersen rapid jack

Good day fellow campers, I have been an observer for the last few years..just joined. Got 2 blowouts on my fifth wheel, one last year and one this year. Looking at the trailer aid plus from camco or Andersen rapid jack. Not sure if one is better than the other.. Looking for opinion on people that have experience with both. I have a 2013 rockwood ultra light signature 8281ws. Thanks

I would probably lean to the trailer aid. Never used one, but works similar to my set up. I carry some 2x8's for site leveling and i just stack them and drive on. Had a blow out 4th of july and worked good.

I have found with my leaf spring axles that even with the plus that I have to put down two levels of Legos to get the tire off the ground with trailer aid plus but no big deal.
