For Consumers

The Prüfengel Institute tests products and services and publishes the results in free publications on the Internet. 
As an independent and private institute, we are free to plan the test. We not only test selected products, but every manufacturer gets the chance to make their products available for testing.

Our experts

Our product testers are specialized and trained in individual product categories. The categories are broken down into sports & leisure, cars & motorcycles, hardware stores, household, technology, etc. The products to be tested are assigned to the respective experts. This allows every employee to carry out the certifications as effectively as possible.
The products are tested in a test catalog specially developed by us. You will receive more information about our test procedure here.

The test seal

Frequently Asked Questions

What services does the Institute offer consumers?

In order to enable the end consumer to make a safe purchase decision, the Prüfgel Institute certifies and compares products and services.

The offer is completely free of charge for consumers. All reviews are up pruefengel.org available at any time. You can check the validity of the seals in our License Search check.

The institute is 100% self-financed and therefore completely independent of dealers and manufacturers. It is financed by a so-called license fee, which is paid before the test. This enables an independent evaluation.

We test every product on site. This means that we not only collect information from the Internet, but also take a close look at the product and test it for certain characteristics. 

We always welcome criticism and suggestions for improvement. You are welcome to send these or similar e-mails to info@pruefengel.org send. We will get in contact with you soon.
