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.

Meisterfaktur
Ceiling hook

The ceiling hook from Meisterfaktur is ideal for hanging punching bags quickly and securely from a concrete ceiling. 4 concrete screws with dowels as well as 1 carabiner & 1 heavy-duty hook – everything is included. Only high-quality 304 & 201 stainless steel is used for the production, so the punching bag ceiling mount can withstand enormous loads – up to 400 kg. Complete assembly instructions are supplied with clear pictures and in German . The ceiling hook can be mounted in just a few minutes. The ceiling hook made a very good impression in our test. As the Meisterfaktur stands for quality, the punching bag wall mount undergoes the strictest quality controls.

Advantages

✅ Simple, quick and safe
✅ Bombproof dowels

ℹ️ Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed.

After unpacking , I found these things on the table: the ceiling hook with carabiner and the concrete screws with dowels. Apart from the small plastic bag in which the parts are packed, the packaging is compact and environmentally friendly. Due to the robust material of the ceiling hook, there is no doubt that it is well and securely packaged. Everything you need is included in the scope of delivery.

We used a spring cradle with a child for the practical test . The ceiling hook holds all this without any signs of weakness, even with hours of continuous swinging . To follow the instructions, a drill with a diameter of 12 mm is required, and this is then suitable. The quality of the ceiling hook is very robust and can withstand a lot of weight and movement.
Installation of the ceiling hook is straightforward and uncomplicated. The mounting system is very simple , but it works. A prerequisite for installation is a good tool, which should be available in every home . It is important to consider the load-bearing capacity and stability of the ceiling. The ceiling hook was used to hang a punching bag after a successful practical test .

Overall, the ceiling hook scored very well and is therefore a product worth recommending.

Price/performance ratio

and ratings from consumers

ℹ️ Finally, we examine how the product compares to the competition. Can it keep up with the competition in terms of price and quality? Would we generally recommend buying it? We also take a look at the consumer reviews and check whether the critical and positive reviews are actually justified.

CriterionRemarkScore achieved*

*The maximum score is 100 points

On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 4.5 stars. One common criticism is that the assembly does not work with the instructions. Many customers like the fact that the ceiling hook is very robust. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the quality was good. We had no difficulties during installation.

Prices of up to €59 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very inexpensive products are available from as little as €13. The Meisterfaktur ceiling hook is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €18.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is reasonable.
