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.

The first impression

Packaging and contents

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 Barista Legends® tapping container impresses with its outstanding product protection and remarkable compactness. The product is supplied in a robust cardboard box, which ensures that it arrives undamaged at the customer’s premises. This is undoubtedly a significant benefit. The packaging of the Barista Legends® tapping container is optimized for compactness. To minimize transport and storage space, the durable cardboard box has been reduced to the smallest possible size. This not only reduces the environmental impact, but also makes the product more efficient. Nevertheless, the use of a plastic film in which the tapping container was wrapped is problematic in the product area due to sustainability concerns. Nevertheless, Barista Legends® has made a commendable effort to make the packaging as compact as possible in order to conserve resources . Overall, the Barista Legends® tapping container prioritizes protection and compactness. We recommend it for its function and efficiency, although improvements in the environmental friendliness of the packaging would be desirable.

The tapping container from Barista Legends® is a nice little and handy tool for the coffee lover. The tapping container is non-slip, dishwasher-safe and easy to use . Very rarely do any coffee grounds fall out because the rod is level with the rim and the container could have a slightly larger diameter. The container is very easy to clean. The tapping rod is quiet. We were very satisfied with the reliability of the knock-off container during the test. The look is also very high quality.
