Depending on how much you want to spend, you can choose anything from a simple bubble level to Bluetooth options. So, which is the best RV level? Keep reading for our top five picks.

Level Mate Pro

The Level Mate Pro says it has “fuss-free leveling,” and who wouldn’t want that? Which is why it’s our top pick for the best RV level.

It all connects through Bluetooth, straight to your phone or tablet. And, because the information is stored on the Level Mat Pro itself, you can level your home through any device by logging into the app.

Of course, it does take time to set everything up the first time you use the Level Mate Pro. And there may be a bit of a learning curve, but there are plenty of videos to help you out. After the initial set-up, though, the device is calibrated to your RV. All you have to do is open the app.

All green numbers mean you are good to go. Red numbers will tell you exactly how far off-level you are. No more guessing how many inches you need to adjust your jacks or leveling blocks. It’s all right there, in real-time, on a handy-dandy screen.

As with any technology, there are a few downsides to this RV level. First, the battery life leaves a bit to be desired.

Another downside is that this RV level uses Bluetooth technology, which means it needs to connect to your phone or tablet. A simple fix for this is to start connecting as soon as you check in. That way, you should be ready to go when you get to your site and are ready to level your RV.

Budget Option

Camco T-Level

It doesn’t get much simpler (or as budget-friendly!) than the Camco T-Level, making it our budget option for the best RV level.

To use the Camco RV level, simply attach one level to the tongue – or front of your RV if it doesn’t have a tongue – and one to the rear bumper. As you add leveling blocks, keep an eye on the bubble and adjust accordingly.

The two bubbles on the level will show you front-to-back and side-to-side leveling.

Because this is a budget option, as you can imagine, it’s not going to hold up as well as other options on our list of best RV levels. For instance, the green liquid in the level is more than likely going to fade within just a couple of months. This doesn’t affect how the level works at all, just be prepared.

One other thing to keep in mind is that the housing for the bubble levels is plastic, and the screws aren’t the best quality. Make sure you don’t overtighten the screws, as this will warp the plastic, resulting in a reading that isn’t accurate.

Best No-Mount Option

Camco Easy Level

If you’re looking for an RV level that doesn’t require using screws or adhesive to attach it to your home, look no further than the Camco Easy Level. This best RV level can be stored away anywhere in your home.

To use, simply take it out of the cabinet or basement and place it in the middle of your floor. Make sure the legs are facing front-to-back and side-to-side. Turn it on and watch it light up. When all the lights turn green, you are level and ready to start enjoying your vacation.

As you can imagine, this is easiest to use with a motorhome where you can watch the lights from your rearview mirror while you make adjustments. However, the Camco system can still be used with a towable unit. Simply have your travel partner set up inside your home with the Easy Level and communicate via cell phone.

The Camco Easy Level doesn’t have an on-off switch. It does have an automatic shut-off, which extends the battery life. However, the unit can think it’s time to turn on at times when it isn’t. This doesn’t help the battery life when it turns on while you’re traveling down the road.

To be on the safe side, you might want to remove the batteries when you’re not using it. Whatever you decide to do, it’s always a safe option to keep extra batteries on hand.

If the green lights are too dim for you, simply watch for the red lights to turn off when leveling your RV.

Hopkins RV Smart Level

The Hopkins RV Smart Level is another budget-friendly, easy-to-use option on our list of best RV levels.

This unit mounts to the side of your RV and collapses down flat or can be removed when not in use. When you’re ready to level your RV, simply open the case and flip out the level so you can see it from your side mirror. No jumping in and out of the truck to see if you’re level side-to-side.

Red LED indicator lights on the side will let you know how far you’re out of level and which side needs to go up or down in order to get to level. The green lights in the middle will light up when you’re there.

To level front to back, simply close the flap back in against your RV and use the lights to adjust the height of your hitch.

Because this unit attaches to the side of your RV, and it opens and closes for use, there’s also a chance that it can come open while you’re driving down the road. To prevent this, simply remove the unit from the bracket and store it away until you need it.

Hopkins Graduated Level

If you like the idea of a non-cluttered, easy-to-read, basic bubble level, the Hopkins Graduated Level is another option for you to consider.

The main difference between the Hopkins Graduated Level and the Camco T-Level budget option on our list is that the Hopkins level has indicators that show how many inches off-level your RV is. No more guessing if you need to lower the hitch an inch or two.
