Not that experienced on being on the level (assume ramps in use) but:
I noticed that the sink didn't drain completely on our Eldis Suntor 140 so I figured, that ultimately, the arbiter of what is and isn't level is the kitchen sink (& maybe shower tray but that has not been used yet).
More acurate than any spirit level (if requiring a two-bod operation).
I suppose they will make a gimbal for the modern raft of mobile phones with a spirit level in but how accurate would that be? And do we have any Javanauts ready to write an ap just for MH's? And the mounting poses a problem.
A plumb line would be very accurate once set-up (to the drainage of the sink).
And have the more modern MH makers figured out that flat bottomed sinks are not functionally perfect? A little more rake towards the central hole would not be unusable.

- Which is what a lot of us have been saying for years, those who 'design' don't always have or use, therefore we get things that [might] look good but don't always work properly ! Ho Hum

How very true. While they are at it a waste water tank with a hopper shapped bottom would be sensible too. We have to be slanting over to the tap side for our tank to empty completely and that is usually not possible.

Put a ramp under the opposing back wheel if needed, quick and easy.

We've got no problems getting level when on our pitch but then the grey water tank doesn't drain. It's a bit of a pain to have to get out ramps and tilt the van everytime you want to empty it.
If the drain hole was low the centre of the bottom of the tank we wouldn't need to....
When level with spirit level lady p pops into the shower and puts a marble onto the floor near to the door. If it rolls towards the drain hole then we are ok.
You could use a cup of water i supose. Same for the sink

Surely a cup of water would not roll towards the drain hole????
