Die Höhle der Löwen Sept. 8: Maschmeyer Lands AIR CUBE, Thelen Backs Steets, Dümmel Invests in FlaveAir

One on-air deal remains under post-show due diligence.

Overview

  • The Sept. 8 episode yielded three on-air agreements—Steets with Frank Thelen, AIR CUBE with Carsten Maschmeyer, and FlaveAir with Ralf Dümmel—while Muvn and krydda left without investment.
  • Steets agreed to €300,000 for 25% with Thelen, and the parties are still in contractual talks off-air according to Stern, citing Gründerszene.
  • AIR CUBE founder Giuseppe Leo reported about €530,000 in sales and chose Maschmeyer after multiple investors made competing offers for the toilet-hygiene device.
  • FlaveAir accepted €150,000 for 25% from Dümmel after some jurors praised the taste but questioned youth appeal and overall demand.
  • The episode spotlighted 98-year-old Heinz Schlechtingen, described as the show’s oldest participant, who helped present Steets’ mobility-aid attachment.
