I need to make an X-mas list up, and thought of what I need for my new van.
What are the best single pin jack pads to get for the new eribas. Milenco, Maypole?

Never felt the need to have those, at home 8 bricks are used away a few bits of wood in a bag kept in the car boot.

I don't think the Maypole pads are available any more.
However the newer Eriba models have different 'feet' so there may be more choice.

You are correct in that the double pin models are no longer made. The Maypole 4976 is a single pin, and looks like it does the job on the newer corner steadies.
I also carry wooden pads around, but only use these to build up under the feet on uneven ground. If the ground is more or less level I have found the attached jack pad method is simpler, quicker and cleaner to use.
I just wondered if anybody has a preference for the single pin pads before I order.

I've got the Milenco single pins on mine and am more than happy with them - as far as caravan feet goes that is. One thing to note perhaps - I noted from watching a YT video that once the plastic side cap has been inserted that you cannot then get it out so in other words, get the feet located correctly on the caravan first before fitting the covers. I have found this not to be the case as I removed the feet from our previous 430 and refitted them on the new 542. A firm grip with a pair of pliers and a gentle pull downwards is all that's needed.

The Familia still has the flat feet that would need the twin pin, I did notice the bigger Eribas did have different feet. Which means they can use the single pin jack pads..

When I go on holiday I like to pop my top!
