FR# 30DS Bed Not Level

I tried a search for info on this, but couldn't find anything...

What do you all do with the bed being out of level on the 30DS?

We installed a mattress topper on the stock mattress and it makes the bed sleepable now but the sheets are constantly coming off because while you toss and turn, the sheets get pulled off the mattress.
The mattress is probably an inch or more lower at the foot of the bed than the head.
Has anyone leveled theirs?

Not sure what year yours is but we've never noticed it being unlevel in our '16.

I better not check either because if it's unlevel I'll never be able to sleep until I fix it!

I think it has something to do with the bed frame being mounted on top of the slide-out...
I looked at it and it's definitely not level... prolly more like an inch and a half over the length of the bed.

We used sheet straps found on amazon. For the foot corners of our sheets and comforter. Now neither come off in the night. Best of luck!!

Our mattress topper even slides down a bit and we have to re-position it almost every other night... the sheets come off every night.

I've had to place a 2'' thick piece of wood about 12'' wide the length of the bed because the mattress dropped down where it folds over. Solved the problem.
