About Us

Prüfengel offers authentic consumer tests in which real users share their experiences with products. Our tests are based on practical applications in everyday life and reflect the opinions of consumers. As we focus on consumer tests, we do not carry out any material, long-term or laboratory tests. The tests are carried out by 1-2 independent consumers over a period of 7-14 days. The exact test conditions can be viewed in the test plan of the respective test report – click here to go directly to the test plan.

Manufacturers provide the tested products free of charge. We charge a one-off test fee for carrying out the tests. In addition, manufacturers pay an annual licence fee for the use of the Prüfengel seal. We also receive a commission for linking to manufacturers’ websites. These remunerations have no influence on our test results or ratings.

We guarantee transparency and a fair evaluation. For a detailed insight into our comprehensive evaluation process, please click here.

LYVANAS
Ice scraper

The ice scraper from LYVANAS is a highly efficient tool for the cold season. The product impresses with its sophisticated design, which makes ice scraping effortless and thorough. One of the two different scraping sides first breaks up the hard ice. The sharp side then completely removes the layer of ice. The curved blade guides the ice away from the side of the windshield. The ergonomically shaped handle ensures comfort and keeps hands warm even in icy temperatures.

Advantages

✅ Efficient ice scraping
✅ Ergonomic handle
✅ Gentle use
3-year money-back guarantee

Disadvantages

❌ Use of plastic film

Packaging and contents

ℹ️ Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed. Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

The ice scraper from LYVANAS has proven to be an extremely effective tool in practical tests. With its wide, flat cutting edge, the ice can be scraped away quickly and without leaving any residue. Even stubborn chunks of ice can be broken up effortlessly with the serrated side. The curved blade guides the removed ice away from the side of the windshield. The ABS material used not only guarantees a long service life, but is also gentle on the windshield and paintwork. The padded, ergonomically shaped, non-slip handle with thumb rest ensures comfortable ice scraping. With its compact dimensions of 23.5 x 9.5 cm, it is handy and easy to stow away. This means it can be easily carried in the vehicle to save space .

Price/performance ratio

and ratings from consumers

ℹ️ Finally, we examine how the product compares to the competition. Can it keep up with the competition in terms of price and quality? Would we generally recommend buying it?

CriterionRemarkScore achieved*
Price / performance ratioVery good90 points
Rating cut4.4 out of 5.0 on Amazon70 points
Total80 points
Weighting: 15%
*The maximum score is 100 points

On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 4.4 stars. The effectiveness is positively emphasized: The sharp plastic blade enables easy removal without damage. The ergonomically shaped handle makes handling easier and the high-quality material ensures the necessary robustness. Points of criticism include the fact that scraping does not cover the entire width of the scraper and that the blade becomes blunt after prolonged use.

Prices of up to €45 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very inexpensive products are available for as little as €5 . The ice scraper from LYVANAS is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €9.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
