BULLSEYE LEVELING SYSTEM

X2 and the cost very little.

The Bullseye web site has virtually no info. Apparently they do not have kits for installing on specific chassis, just a collection of different length screwjacks and different size motors and its up to the owner to figure it out. No WAY!!! Given the very few different chassis' in the motorhome business, (really, think about it..... Ford E350/450 is by far the most) why would they not engineer custom install kits? if they want to sell the units?

Unless there is a manual crank on each screw, I would not want them. What happens when a wire breaks, motor burns up, etc? On hydraulic systems, you usually can cheat them by loosening a line and allowing fluid to leak out as the springs suck the actuators in, or as you use a jack to force them in. With mechanical screws, you will quite literally get the screwjack if it fails.

Merecedes is very peculiar about not drilling into or welding on their chassis. I'm willing to bet that other chassis mfg are the same way. The HWH system installs on the Sprinter without drilling a single hole in the chassis. It picks up existing holes and makes for a neat install.

I put it in the refrigerator. If the fridge is level - that is all that matters. BTW, my leveling system is: plastic leveling blocks.

x4 to all of that.

When I was new to RV'ing, leveling was a it of a pain but two years later, I can pretty much eye ball the situation and take a pretty accurate guess about what is needed before even checking the level. Of course, there is still the rare campsite that stumps me.

I purchased a used class A motorhome that has an older Bullseye leveling system. I have had the same experience (slow response, poor communication) with them when trying to get support. The system is good, but there are definitely serious concerns with support.

The Bullseye Leveling system seemed like a great deal so I ordered one May 6 2015. Also told my sis and family as well as another friend about System. According to the owner, no problem fitting your 2014 Coachman Freelander CB19. Had some communication problems from the git go... ie owner was slow to respond to calls and email like receipt? order tracking number? Got the system and although all the measurements were within the specs on the web site.. the front jacks would not fit. Needed 19 inches for the folding legs and only had 13. Suggestions were made about cutting out parts of my frame cross beams in order to make a fit. Numerous phone calls for solution were not providing any answers. Finally got an ok to return the system. No communication from the owner Alan Brink. The system was accepted by the company June 2. I called but got no response so emailed on June 5 and got a confirmation that the system arrived and a week to process which would be restocking fee, mail fee, and any damage assessment. Waited 13 days without response. Asked if it would be helpful to file a dispute with credit card company to help get it settled. Got a response... ".. it would be processed next week.." Alan claimed changing credit card processors as the problem. Finally had to file a disputed claim with credit card company because I always clear any credit card balance and don't pay interest unless absolutely necessary. Credit card company will not charge interest and will hold that account balance without any penalty until the dispute is settled. Emailed Bullseye 6/30/15 and got the usual sorry... If you withdraw the dispute .... check would be in the mail.. Hmm "check in the mail" where have I heard that before? I replied that I would be happy to let the credit card company know when I knew the check was expedited. Final communication was the check would be in the mail tomorrow 7/1/15. As of today 7/10/15 no check or response from Bullseye. Although its a pain having to deal with this outfit, I am feeling lucky that the system would not fit. Wonder what would have happened if the product was installed and I needed some customer support!

Good information to know -- thanks for sharing it!

I have been using the free rv leveling app for the phone. Like the KISS principle! Like the fact that I can set up the app for anywhere in the RV. I use el cheapo TracFone so $100 a year for my calls. Now if I can just get my money refunded ..we be happy camper!
