I purchased an Ender 3S1 about two weeks ago now, and it seems like I'm having to level the bed after almost every single print.

The prints themselves are turning out fine, I just don't know how to get my bed to stay level.

I purchased these as I thought they were supposed to help keep the bed in place

have you made sure your adjustment knobs are as tight as possible?

I found that if I tightened all my knobs to max I could, then leveled by loosening some and adjusting the z offset, it would stay there for much longer.

Especially with those rubber-ish things. They seem to have a lot more expansion and contraction than the higher end springs.

I'll give this a shot, I was under the impression that you start with them as uncompressed as possible
