Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?

The first impression of the self-adhesive felt glides is very good. They are delivered in a classic shipping box that protects the product well. Inside is the product box, which keeps the felt glides safe. The shipping paper also ensures optimum product protection.

They are versatile and suitable for various surfaces and furniture types. The set contains different sizes of round and rectangular felt glides. The felt glides are extra sturdy.

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 look at the consumer reviews and check whether the critical and positive reviews are actually justified.

CriterionRemarkScore achieved*
Price / performance ratioVery good performance in the lower price segment90 points
Rating cut4.6 out of 5.0 on Amazon80 points
Total85 points
Weighting: 15%
*The maximum score is 100 points

On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 4.6 stars. One common complaint is that the adhesive surfaces come loose on heavy furniture. Many customers like the fact that many different sizes and shapes are available. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the variety on offer was good. In our practical test, we did not find that the adhesive surfaces detached from the furniture.

Prices of up to €15 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very inexpensive products are available from as little as €12. The felt glides from X-PROTECTOR are therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €12.61. The price-performanceratio isreasonable for the quality and performance received.
