Electric level up

Does anyone use the electric level up and are they as good and dependable as the hydraulic system

I have wondered about them as well. If keystone has any models that only have cable slides, then that is where they would be used. My guess is that they work fine, but operate a lot slower than hydraulics. But still...would have to be better and faster in setup time than what I have seen with fifth wheels without levelup. Just so glad that our model had them. John

My friend has a toy hauler that has it. You first have to lower the legs manually until they hit the ground put the pin in then hit the auto level and it does a good job of leveling the unit. However you have more movement than you have with hydraulic ram. It is much slower also.

Our good friends and neighbour have a Cougar with electric. As above, adjustment for the front jacks is with pins. It is a 4 point system and a lot slower but they sure do like it.
