I finally had to replace my old Waterpik flosser, it lasted ten or twelve year's. I love the new model ,much quieter and the bowl design is better .I would not go without one of these,they really do help my gum's and clean great.
It is a bit messy ,but once you learn how to use it ,it works ok.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought it before Christmas. I thought from what I read that it might be good for my stepson' braces & maybe it would help us save on dental work. It came with a travel kit (smaller size too) so perfect, stepson could take to his mom's & use for braces which seemed tougher to keep clean. And we could keep the larger unt here. His reaction when I asked how it was working showed me that it was more than a just "good" thing. It's a little messy until you get used to it, but teeth seem so much cleaner than flossing. When I called to take advantage of the discount on additional heads for registration, the lady said, (when I asked), that she'd talked to people that had them 10-15 years & theirs were still working. So I figured we'd have it long enough to justify buying the extra heads & cleaning wands.
