Test result preview
The WOLKENGLÜCK bath seat for babies is a comfortable and safe solution for bathing your child. Thanks to the four strong suction cups, the seat provides a stable hold in the bath. Its ergonomic design ensures a good sitting position that provides comfort and safety for your baby. A particularly practical feature is that the seat can be folded up for easy storage. However, it is a little more complicated to assemble. The good workmanship and soft material make the bath seat a useful aid for a stress-free bathing experience.
Advantages
- Strong suction cups
- Easy to stow away
Disadvantages

*Themaximum score is 100 points
The WOLKENGLÜCK bath seat impresses in practical tests with its stability and resilience. Thanks to the four strong suction cups, the seat sits securely in the bath without slipping. Despite the firm hold, the suction cups can be easily removed thanks to a practical release mechanism. Handling and storage when folded is also a positive aspect: although the seat saves space, it splits into two parts, which is less practical. A solution where the parts remain together would be desirable.
In terms of safety, there are no sharp edges or corners that could pose a risk of injury. Only minimal roughening is noticeable, but this is not a problem. The folding mechanism works reliably, but requires a little more force than expected. The ease of cleaning is particularly positive – the seat is easy to clean and hygienic.
Overall, the bath seat demonstrated good functionality, stability and user-friendliness in the practical test.

*Themaximum score is 100 points
On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 3.5 stars. In some cases, there is criticism that the bath seat is not easy to install. On the other hand, the high holding power is emphasised positively. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the bath seat is stable and offers very good support. Consumer criticism of the assembly of the seat is partly justified. The mechanisms work, but require more effort.
Prices of up to €49.93 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €22.99 . The bath seat for babies from WOLKENGLÜCK is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €29.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is good.
