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.

Koala Babycare
Silver hats

Product description of the manufacturer

The silver cap from Koala Babycare is an innovative product for protecting sensitive nipples during breastfeeding. It provides a protective barrier for sensitive nipples, ensures comfort and supports well-being during breastfeeding. The product is made of high-quality 925 silver with natural antibacterial properties and is available in two sizes to ensure a perfect fit. Thanks to their anatomical shape, the caps are almost invisible under clothing and can be worn discreetly. Another advantage is that no nipple ointments or creams are necessary, as the silver caps preserve the taste and odour of breast milk. The product is environmentally friendly, reusable and made in Italy.

During the test phase, it was found to be very easy to use. However, the caps could offer a little more comfort for very sensitive skin. Overall, the silver cap is a practical solution for breastfeeding mothers.

  • Protection for sensitive nipples
  • High-quality material
  • Reusable and environmentally friendly
  • Only available in two sizes
