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.

BROX
Dirt eraser

Product description of the manufacturer

The BROX® dirt eraser is a versatile cleaning product that acts as an eraser sponge to remove stubborn dirt from various surfaces. Whether in the kitchen, bathroom or for sneakers – this product promises simple and effective dirt removal without chemical cleaning agents, using only water. Our test shows that the magic sponge impresses with its innovative foam structure and really does make cleaning easier. The product offers great versatility as well as outstanding durability, as the 18 sponges in the set are robust and hard-wearing. The environmentally friendly use is particularly positive, as it eliminates the need for toxic chemicals. However, more sustainable packaging would have been desirable, as the plastic film could be replaced by a more ecological alternative. Overall, the eraser offers a convincing solution for the household, even if caution is required on sensitive surfaces such as painted walls to avoid abrasion.

In a practical test by Prüfengel GmbH, the BROX® dirt eraser shows its strengths. It completely removes dirt from kitchen worktops and plastic surfaces, while bathroom tiles and stainless steel surfaces are almost completely cleaned – only minimal residue remains visible. The abrasive effect produces the promised erasing effect, whereby cleaning with water alone is sufficient. The test result is also positive for walls painted with latex or acrylic paint, although the paint does rub off slightly, which should be taken into account for sensitive surfaces. The manufacturer largely keeps its promise of versatile and chemical-free cleaning, even if the full effectiveness can vary depending on the surface. Overall, the magic sponge impresses with its efficiency and ease of use in everyday life.
