The fridge is within specification, the door works properly and the bed is not leaning.
fwiw, I chock my wheels so tight that it is not possible to kick them out. When leaving I have to pull the TM forward a bit with the TV to get the rear chocks out. Very tight wheel chocks contribute significantly to stability when walking in the TM.

Sounds like the same procedure I use (minus the fry pan). I put the level on the floor inside the door for my fine tuning. In my early trips, I would double check various surfaces (counters, stoves, fridge, etc.) but I found that they all seemed to 'average' around the floor. So, now I just use the floor reference for final tunning. All my systems work and we never feel 'tilted'. Fine tunning doesn't ever take too much.
I actually use the TV to tighten my chocking. Put cocks to the rear and back into them, put chocks tight in front and let it 'settle'. Requires TV to release.
