How Level?

I just set up my 233s on a concrete site and find I am 1/2” - 3/4” off level from left to right. I am assuming there will be no negative impact on my refrigerator. Am I correct?

Just ask your wife if she can feel it "unlevel or level". If she cannot tell the difference then you are close enough.

At 1/2" - 3/4" doors are going to swing open or shut and my wife says that's no bueno.

Been there done that. I thought, no big deal, we started camping on the ground in a tent, well, that did not go like I hoped. LOL...

No issues, especially if you're plugged in.

I never worry about left to right leveling, only front to back, leaving the front a little higher so water (air-conditioning condensate or rain) always drains to the back of the camper.

Actually, I do the opposite. My A/C condensation drains towards the front. The water comes down next to the mirror (Class C motorhome). I hang a small bucket there to catch the water, it's clean and great for hand rinsing etc. since I have no water hookup where I camp.

The camco leveling blocks under the wheels on one side will move it by about an inch, so you’d be off by the same amount in the opposite direction. Good enough. The water will still drain from the sink. And when you pass gas in bed at night, it’ll still rise.

Doesn't matter if you are plugged in or on propane, fridge operates exactly the same. An absorption fridge uses either propane or electricity for heat. The absorption process is identical.

You could use your stabilizers to bring it level. Do not lift the tires off the ground, just make small adjustments until level.

I like to leave my slide side a little low so the rain runs away from them.
