Many people never experience a slide failure but most everyone worries about it and you’ll avoid a lot of stress if you’re confident that you can deal with it. Good luck.

Very true. The small bedroom slide can be moved easily if the motor brakes are disabled. Even though the bottom of the slide is level with my head, I was able to push it in with one hand. The larger 12 foot slide does require the motors to be disconnected for one person to move the slide. Tilting the coach really helps big slide. On side effect of being retired is I have time to experiment with the "What if".
