OUR biggest issue with this product is the placement of the floss button on the handle. This leads to unexpected flossing of yourself as well as surrounding areas as the button is prone to being "bumped" on. BAD DESIGN!! The brush button also suffers the same design thoughtlessness but makes a much smaller mess. Whomever chose this placement should be sent back to "Product Evaluation 101A". Initially we did the brush/floss at the same time. Great time saving idea but costly. Why? The next dental visit resulted in both of us having 4 cavities each (~800.00 OUCH). I can't remember the last time I either of us had a cavity. Having an engineering background, I wondered why we BOTH suddenly had cavities? The only change was using this device to brush and floss at the same time. It then occurred to me that doing so removes the toothpaste/fluoride OFF the teeth leaving them exposed which likely resulted in the above. Reverting to flossing first and brushing second with the unit has eliminated the issue. ;) Finally, the perimeter of clear cover outside the "brush" button turns orange after a month or so which to me indicates there may be a leakage/ corrosion issue. You sent a replacement unit and it has done the same thing :( Coming from engineering, I understand the "Marketing PUSH" to get a new product to the "window" first and that's been accomplished. Now it's time to clean up the hurry up and get it done oversights IMO. The above defects could be easily fixed with little effort. Great product otherwise that has helped a lot with my perio issues.
I have been eyeing this for a long time. I have used an electric toothbrush and a waterpik for decades. But to have them in one device is fantastic. I must say, my gums (I have implants) are singing with joy after I brush/floss my mouth. Getting carême from between my teeth is not a problem anymore. And thank you for the extra counter space.
I was hesitant before purchasing Waterpik's flosser and electric toothbrush in one unit. I am so happy I didn't. I have always flossed due to gum issues but honestly, when I was tired I skipped many nights. Now I don't have to because this unit does the brushing and water flossing at the same time saving me time.
