tough on batteries. If you use it once or twice a day the batteries last about 3 weeks. Unfortunately you will notice the batteries start weakening after about 2 weeks. My experience has been one low speed. I never used high.
The water pik has been a lifesaver with my braces.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello there - We are happy to hear the product has been a lifesaver! We greatly appreciate your feedback and will make sure to pass it along to our Product Design Team.
I like my Waterpik it's just so messy to use, however I was so surprise to see all the food particles that come out of my teeth. I will definitely recommend the product to family and friends and plan to buy Waterpiks for my children.
At first the Cordless Express worked well but after 2 weeks the battery power declined rapidly, which significantly reduced product performance. I would not recommend this product, purchase a rechargeable or plug-in instead.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We are sorry to see that you are not happy with your new WF-02. We greatly appreciate your feedback. The average customer will replace batteries every 6-8 weeks. The type and quality of AA battery used will impact the performance. If you use the product more than once a day, or if multiple people use it, we recommend a counter top model or a rechargeable unit.
I wasn't sure that I would like using a waterpik. My dentist suggested that I get one, since I have implants and food could possibly get stuck under the tooth. I've always used dental floss. This waterpik is so much nicer and easier. It can remove anything that might be caught under the implant. I highly recommend this waterpik.
