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.

Luxor Living
Novara rug

Product description of the manufacturer

The Luxor Living Novara fur rug is a rectangular high-pile rug with a pile height of 30 mm, which conveys a particularly soft and luxurious feel thanks to its rabbit fur feel. Made from 100% polyester, this rug offers an easy-care and durable alternative to real fur. Its versatility in living rooms, bedrooms or children’s rooms makes it an attractive home accessory. One advantage is its sound-absorbing properties, which ensure a quiet atmosphere. However, the use of synthetic fibers could be a disadvantage for some environmentally conscious buyers.

  • Easy to clean and durable
  • Versatile use in different rooms
  • Incomparably soft feel
  • Synthetic fiber could be a disadvantage for environmentally conscious people

The carpet was delivered in compact packaging adapted to the product size, which effectively protected the carpet during transportation. The fact that no unnecessary packaging material was used should be emphasized, which contributes to sustainability. When unpacked, the rug was in perfect condition, with no visible defects or damage. The rug did not come with instructions for use, but this is not necessary as the rug is self-explanatory.

The Luxor Living Novara fur rug impresses at first glance with its high-quality look and pleasantly soft feel. The dense and even pile creates a luxurious look and contributes to the high-quality overall impression. The workmanship of the rug is flawless, there are no visible material defects, loose fibers or unclean seams.

A special feature is the rabbit fur feel, which provides an exceptionally soft and pleasant feeling when walking barefoot. Despite the synthetic fiber, the rug feels silky and supple without appearing artificial. The pile height of 30 mm not only gives the rug a sophisticated look, but also creates a cozy living atmosphere.

The rug also makes a solid impression in terms of stability. The backing is non-slip so that the rug lies securely on different floor coverings without slipping. This is particularly important if it is used in households with children or pets.

The manufacturer does not provide any explicit information on sustainability. However, due to the high-quality polyester fibers used, it can be assumed that the carpet is particularly durable and will remain in excellent condition for many years if cared for properly. Another plus point is its color and dimensional stability, which does not change even with regular use and cleaning.

In summary, the Luxor Living Novara fur rug offers excellent workmanship, an elegant design and an exceptionally soft feel that gives it a luxurious appearance.

In the practical test, the Luxor Living Novara fur rug was convincing in several areas. The high level of comfort that the rug offers when walking barefoot was particularly noticeable. The extremely soft feel ensures a pleasant sensation on the feet without the fibers feeling artificial or unpleasant.

The carpet’s slip resistance varies depending on the floor covering. While it is secure and stable on carpeted floors, it showed slight movement on tiles and wooden floors. However, this was not disruptive and did not impair use. The advantage of this characteristic is that the carpet can be easily moved and flexibly repositioned thanks to its pleasant weight.

Cleaning the carpet went without a hitch. Dust, hair and dirt could be removed efficiently with both a handheld vacuum cleaner and a robot vacuum cleaner without fibers getting caught in the appliance. This speaks for the easy-care properties of the product.

A small disadvantage is the initial inherent odor that was noticeable after unpacking. This was intense at first, but subsided significantly after a few days and was barely noticeable after about a week.

Overall, the test confirms the high quality and suitability for everyday use of the carpet. The combination of comfort, easy cleaning and good workmanship makes it a recommended choice for various living areas.
