Wow! Let me tell you that this thing REALLY DOES WORK! I don’t like string floss at all. I love the fact it can clean the back of my teeth without a struggle. Now I use this multiple times a day. I recommend this to everybody. Why I waited this long to get one of these is beyond me. Go buy one now! You won’t regret it. Thank you sooo much Waterpik! Now I’m a happy camper.
I bought this recently by the suggestion of one of my dental hygenist. It has been so easy to use. I'm hoping that my next dental visit shows improvement on my dental hygiene. This would definitely make my purchase worth while.
The Handle You Hold To Clean Your Teeth is Horribl

I guess overall this is a good product as my dentist said my gums improved when using it, but I'm getting ready to buy my fourth one in a year. The button that pushes in on the handle is only good for about three months and replacing the handle it never really works right after that. Each time I've had to buy a whole new unit. Since I'm heading out to by my fourth one in a year tomorrow, I am upset and I think I should warn people that it's good for your health but the handle design is horrible - the button won't last very long at all, it is not a warranty part, and when you buy a replacement handle not only does it cost a third of the price of the whole unit but it doesn't work as well after replaced so it's easier in the long run just to get a new one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I excitedly purchased a WaterPik hoping for improved oral health. Sadly it did not work out that way for me. The machine works mechanically, hence a second star given, but it does not clean as well as floss. I love the idea but it doesn't translate in reality. In addition, my teeth are incredibly sensitive currently. I just returned it to the store. I guess I'm back to the barbaric flossing.
