Not having the luxury of automatic levelers, I work at getting my MH reasonably level. How level is level enough to safely operate frig, etc?

With the more modern fridges like you have, the fridge manufactures state that if you're comfortable living in the rig, then that's close enough.

Doors swinging wildly open or shut would indicate to far off level.

Hi okmunky,
People tend to be more fussy about level than the refrigerator. There are many ways to check for being level. For me the final check is the refrigerator door. Open at 45, 90 and another 45 degrees. If the door stays in one spot, your fine.
