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.

Mister Sandman
Mattress topper 5cm

Product description of the manufacturer

The Mister Sandman mattress topper 5 cm is an excellent solution for anyone who wants to improve their sleeping comfort in a simple way. The highly elastic gel foam provides excellent pressure relief and adapts perfectly to the shape of the body. With a height of 5 cm, the topper brings a noticeable improvement in lying comfort, especially for people who need additional padding. Another plus is the regulation of the bed temperature, which leads to pleasant sleeping comfort by dissipating excess heat. The durable gel foam ensures that the topper retains its shape and function over long periods of time. According to the manufacturer, the easy-care cover is also suitable for allergy sufferers and a safe choice for babies and toddlers. The only drawback is that the cover is somewhat more difficult to put back on after washing. Overall, however, the topper offers a worthwhile improvement in sleeping comfort.

  • Optimum temperature regulation
  • Easy-care cover
  • Very good lying comfort
  • Difficulty putting on the cover after washing
