We’ve had them for 5 years on 2 different 5th wheel toy haulers. They are great. We recently had 2 of ours develop small cracks along the bases. Contacted Andersen and we had 2 new ones within a week, no charge !!!
We've used them over 2 years on our Reflection and they work great. Ive seen some say they break or explode yet these same people never show photos as evidence of the failures. We love our Andersens
Right on! Same here, even if they break after 4 years of 17,000lbs on them full time I’m sold. Especially because they replace them with a lifetime warranty. Appreciate you watching 👍🏼
I didn't get them when we bought our fifth wheel, but I bought them last year and I love them. I'm thinking of getting the square ones for my son's travel trailer.
Yeah we inherited them with ours and I wasn’t too sure about them at first but definitely notice the difference without them. Hate having my legs extended super long. Plus if they crack the company is great about sending a new out to you right away.
Thanks for the vid! We use the Andersen EZ Blocks for our travel trailer. They are rectangle and work great for the stabilizing jacks and tongue jack. We love them and work great!
Sure thing. These have been great and we’ve been really happy with them. And heck if one was to break they send a new one instantly. Thanks for watching
Glad I found this video, We bought a new 5th wheel last year and still used the 4x6 blocks we had with our TT but trying to keep weight down as much as possible and blocks are becoming a pain to load/unload so I just bought 6 of these and looking forward to using them. They were a lot bigger in person than I thought but they're light enough to just throw in the bed of the truck in a carry bag.
Thanks. Yeah ours came with the RV when we bought it and we have since really enjoyed them. They really aren’t to cumbersome, back of your truck, storage area, stacked in hallway by your front door, etc., there’s always room somewhere lol. Thanks for watching guys!
I don’t stabilize with anything but I’m not full time. I’ve just always looked at it as campers move. I started camping in a hammock so it seems pretty stable without the jacks even touching the ground
Great information Chris. Angie and I use wood blocks, mostly because that is what we have always used, and I guess I am just to frugal to put a crow bar in my wallet yet to purchase a set of the Buckets. That said, we have family members that have the Anderson Buckets, both of them purchased them when they purchased their rigs recently, and they really like them. I do like the Anderson products and I have carried a Anderson Rapid Jack in our rigs since 2014. Used it several times on our previous rig, and had to use it on our current rig back in April of 2020 when I picked up a sheet metal screw in the RR tire on our RV and had to change it. 👍 Take Care and Safe Travels!! 🍻 Sean
I would probably do the wood too like you if the Andersen Blocks had not already come with my camper when we purchased it. Cool thing is the company is great at replacing items no questions asked do that lifetime warranty is nice. Thanks for stopping by as always guys.
Yes they can be used with motorhome. Each block is rated at 6,000lbs. I like to use them with the Andersen RV basepad too. A thick rubber base bad made by RV Snappad to be compatible with these. If you are not into the Andersen Buckets RV snappad has a cool leveling stacker block I really like as well.

And they have rubber attached. Save 10% off why code WHYWAIT too at checkout.
Yeah I wasn’t to sure if I would of bought them when I started but since they came with our camper we love them now. 4 years of constant weight on these and only 1 little problem. Company replaces all their items instantly and that lifetime warranty is great. Plus with the little rubber mats we use under them we don’t have to worry about the gravel breaking them which seems to be the only time they might crack.
These are great! The fact that you don’t have to line them up and they just stick to the jacks is great not to mention the lifetime warranty. You’ll have these forever and they replace them no questions asked. Hope you enjoy them and thanks for watching!
I’m not sure because each foot of the Jack is different but more than likely yes it should. Andersen also makes a square block that might be better for you. Check it out here. amzn.to/42pNwVw
Amazon…it’s ok. Replace it once after stickers peeled even after using a UV protectant on it. Here’s the link. Lots of different options on Amazon. www.amazon.com/dp/B07FMH8NB7/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_MW2N3VKQPFSG5KRWXZNV?linkCode=ml2&tag=whywait-20
You could use them for the extra height they offer for sure still they just won’t stick to the snap pads because they are rubber. But you could place them under your jacks to keep the legs from extending as far.
😂il make these out of pressure treated 6x6 wood. Alot cheaper and WILL NOT CRACK.. The price you pay for these is alot for plastic. You already had one Crack and if that happens while your camping then you have problems. Il take pressure treated all day. They are heavy but they will not Crack. I just put a handle on them to carry. But to each there own. Also my levelers have a cross bar on them for movement side to side. In another video I found that these plastic ones Crack more then not so ya il take the time to make them out of pressure treated wood.
Good deal, I’ve seen lots of people do that. I would have probably done the same but these Andersens came with my RV when I bought it. Nice thing about the Andersen blocks is they are lightweight, magnets that stick to the jacks and if one cracks they send one out the next day. Never have to purchase another one for your lifetime. We had one crack in 5 years fulltime living on them, 17,000lbs. Not bad. And when it’s cracks it’s not like they explode, the base just gets a crack in them. Lift your jack leg up, remove it and put it back down. No big deal. Thanks for watching.

Exactly! Can’t beat it. Glad you enjoy them too and appreciate you watching!

Sure thing! I’ve seen those, they look nice too. And it’s great that all their products are lifetime warranty.
I have been craving these since I got my 5er. Just ordered based on your review. Thanks!!
Sure thing. These have been great and we’ve been really happy with them. And heck if one was to break they send a new one instantly. Thanks for watching

Nice. We’ve been really happy with them and you can’t beat the lifetime warranty no questions asked. Thanks for watching!
It's definitely a no brainer. I just got mine today.
Right on. We are still liking ours. We pair them with the RV Snappad base for use on gravel or grass.
Hello! Your thumbnail was awesome 😉. Love this product but not sure where to store them! Thank you for sharing your experience with them!
Thanks. Yeah ours came with the RV when we bought it and we have since really enjoyed them. They really aren’t to cumbersome, back of your truck, storage area, stacked in hallway by your front door, etc., there’s always room somewhere lol.
Thanks for watching guys!
Very cool! Thanks for sharing! having a level rig is very nice!
Level and STILL hahaha Appreciate you as always checking it out 😊
I don’t stabilize with anything but I’m not full time. I’ve just always looked at it as campers move. I started camping in a hammock so it seems pretty stable without the jacks even touching the ground
Sure thing. Yeah as full timers it’s just a nice extra convenience to have.
I have the sizzor leveling jacks on my TT-TH so I use oak blocks. No round pads for these plastic buckets.
Indeed. That makes sense. Appreciate you checking out the video. 👍🏼
You can get the round snap jacks for sizzor lifts now! We just ordered ours last week! Videos on TH-cam about them

How about using them on a motorhome ?
We have a 30 foot 4 winds RV with a V 10 motor.
Too heavy for this product ?
Thanks !
Yes they can be used with motorhome. Each block is rated at 6,000lbs. I like to use them with the Andersen RV basepad too. A thick rubber base bad made by RV Snappad to be compatible with these.

We have heard of them breaking, but didn’t know about the lifetime guarantee. 👍🏻

We use 4x4 wooden blocks im ordering those
These are great! The fact that you don’t have to line them up and they just stick to the jacks is great not to mention the lifetime warranty. You’ll have these forever and they replace them no questions asked. Hope you enjoy them and thanks for watching!
I heard some folks mention they can't get the hitch down low enough using these?
No I haven’t heard anybody ever bring that up to me. We have always had goose neck style hitches so I don’t know if that makes a difference or not.
Question? Will this particular block work with the scissor type of jacks on a travel trailer?
I’m not sure because each foot of the Jack is different but more than likely yes it should. Andersen also makes a square block that might be better for you. Check it out here.

Where did you get the map that you have on the outside of your trailer?
Amazon…it’s ok. Replace it once after stickers peeled even after using a UV protectant on it. Here’s the link. Lots of different options on Amazon.

Do you know if you can use them with snap pad installed on your leveling system?
You could use them for the extra height they offer for sure still they just won’t stick to the snap pads because they are rubber. But you could place them under your jacks to keep the legs from extending as far.
Thank you for all the great and reliable information and useful ways to maintain our rigs. We look forward to your videos.
Is there a way to send you some pictures?
Pictures About what? You can follow us on Facebook, Instagram or Tik Tok and message us there.
They can’t fit our landing gear so we when with snap pads
Oh no kidding!🤔 I thought they were pretty universal. Never heard that.
@@WhyWait ours have 12in front jacks and 10in mid and rear and they not round some octagon shape
