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.

Cressi
Snorkel mask BALI

Product description of the manufacturer

The BALI snorkeling mask from Cressi features sturdy cardboard packaging that reliably protects the product. Unnecessary packaging waste has been avoided and a plastic film protects sensitive product components. A future switch to more environmentally friendly alternatives would be desirable. The design is appealing and the workmanship is of high quality. The mask is very sturdy, which favors a long service life. There is no information on the sustainability of the product, but the choice of high-quality materials indicates longevity. The fit is optimal, does not cause any pressure points and offers full freedom of movement without slipping. During the entire test, the mask showed no leaks, remained completely water-resistant and passed the water dousing test flawlessly. The breathing comfort is excellent, the air circulation prevents fogging, even when breathing faster. The blow-out valve reliably removes water and leaves no residue. The camera mount is not optimally compatible with all models and can be difficult to attach. Overall, the mask offers very good workmanship, high wearing comfort and outstanding functionality, particularly in terms of tightness, stability and breathing comfort. There is potential for optimization in terms of the sustainability of the packaging and the compatibility of accessories.

  • High comfort
  • Effective blowing out
  • Many colors and sizes
  • Camera mount wobbly on some cameras
  • Transport bag desirable

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?
