The first impression
The packaging and labelling
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 ensured.

*The maximum score is 100 points
The fall-out protection from zoula kidz was delivered in a typical Amazon box. To better protect the product, the cavity was padded with paper. The box was undamaged and easy to open. In this case, the product was fully protected and the fall-out protection was therefore in perfect condition.
The product packaging is fully recyclable.
The product makes a very good impression at first glance.

The first time in your hand
Product processing and appearance
ℹ️ Before we start the practical test, we take a close look at the product processing. How high quality are the materials used? Is the look and feel satisfactory?
| Criterion | Remark | Points achieved* |
|---|---|---|

*The maximum score is 100 points
Firstly, it should be said that the safety gate makes a very good visual impression. All transitions are neatly finished and there are no visible defects or cracks. The inflatable part is made of polyester with a safety valve and anti-slip strips on the underside, while the fabric cover is made of soft, machine-washable fabric with silicone nubs for a better grip. The product impresses with its simple but well thought-out design.
There is no information on the sustainability of the product. However, due to the high-quality materials used, we assume a long service life.
This is what our practical test showed
Does the manufacturer keep its advertising promises?
ℹ️ Our practical test is the most relevant and therefore the most important. Here, the product has to undergo a wide range of criteria and tests. We check the functions and product promises of the test article.

| Size | Small pack size | 100 points |

| Applicability | Suitable for all bed types | 100 points |
| Total | 98 points |
*The maximum score is 100 points
We really liked the use of the zoula kidz fall-out protection in the test. It is a practical and versatile solution for parents of children who have to sleep in a normal height bed. The protector is light and easy to inflate and can be used both at home and when travelling. To prevent the air from simply escaping, a valve is integrated for safety. The anti-slip strips on the underside also ensure non-slip safety. The cover is soft and comfortable and has anti-slip silicone studs on the underside for added safety. It should only be noted that two cushions may be required for a bed that is not against the wall, which can lead to space problems with narrow beds. The cover can be hand-washed in the washing machine at 30 degrees , which may not be hygienic enough for some parents. Overall, however, the inflatable safety rail is a very good alternative to conventional bed rails and a safe way to protect children from falling out of bed.
Price/performance ratio
and ratings from consumers
ℹ️ Finally, we look at 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 analyse consumer reviews and check whether the critical and positive reviews are actually justified.
| Criterion | Remark | Points achieved* |
|---|---|---|
| Price / performance ratio | Not rated, as no price comparison possible | |
| Rating cut | Not rated, as there are still too few customer reviews | |
