2010 HW277 dinette slide- out

Just bought this tent camper and noticed that when the slide-out dinette is opened it is tilted down. The rest of the camper
is level. Is there any way to level out the slide-out dinette?

congrats on the new camper and welcome to the forum. I have the same model camper, it is also a 2010. we bought it new and the dinette slideout has always had a slight tilt. really has not been an issue for us and items have not slide off the table.

Hope you have as much fun with yours as we have had with ours.

My 2012 was the same. Even after dealer replaced the roller tracks once. Warning: if you ever have the dealer replace the rollers, don't let them close it up until you inspect it. Mine was covered with grease on the dinette and canvas. Didn't find out until the next trip.

We had an 08' BR28TSC toyhauler and the dinette also had a slight tilt. It used to bug me only because of my OCD! I just assumed it had something to do with keeping the canvas taut and holding shape. If I would sit by the window I could really notice it, so I always took a seat closest to the inside.

Can't you just put support jacks underneath?

I thought support jacks were a no no on the slide? Ours looks like it dips a little but I never noticed actually sitting in it.

Our HW296 has always had a slight downward tilt on the dinette. I think it may be that way by design.
