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.

babybay®
Extra bed for box spring bed

Product description of the manufacturer

The babybay® co-sleeper is an innovative solution for parents who want to be very close to their newborn. It is infinitely height-adjustable and adapts perfectly to a box spring bed – with no gap, no step and no wobbling. This creates a safe and comfortable sleeping environment for your baby. The flexible strap fastening is particularly practical, allowing easy attachment to the parents’ bed. The co-sleeper also offers a generous sleeping surface that is also suitable for twins. Another advantage is the durability of the product, which can be transformed into various pieces of furniture such as a bench or a play table.

  • Infinitely height-adjustable
  • Flexible belt fastening
  • Durable & versatile
  • Many accessories are not included in the set
