Overview
- The 24 February anniversary episode reworked the format with three-person testing teams and deliberate product swaps between longtime participants.
- Detlef Steves refused to try a home Brazilian waxing set and passed it to Matthias Mangiapane, then later absorbed shocks in a party game he ultimately called their best yet.
- Testers reported discomfort with a marketed neck brace, describing it as constricting and likening it to a torture device.
- The Crazy Cart XL delivered high‑energy drifting but drew criticism for its €1,521 price, while Taekwondo kick pads and a Sweet Sundae ice‑cream machine were also judged poor value.
- Veterans Ingrid and Otto Kneidinger were honored and said goodbye after a final test, and VOX confirmed the follow‑up ‘Die Freizeittester’ special with activities like a mermaid course and house running starting 3 March.
