I hadn't expected that I would use this daily because of the setting up. But immediately, I liked the deeper clean feeling and could tell that it was going below the gumline. I had a flare-up of gum disease and felt it might have been because of plaque under the crowns I had. This is pretty quick to use, and I can really tell that it's doing more than string flossing and brushing. And tho I usually use the regular tip, I can tell when I use the plaque seeker tip that it is helping my problem crown area, where I had swelling and pain. I will be interested to go to my next dental cleaning and see the conclusion. I'm guessing that I won't need so much scraping.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Too loud to use

I had no clue this wpuld be so loud. Not like 40 years ago.
Bought this brand and model because it was only choice on shelf, and it was pricey.. Almost immediately there was and still is a problem that may be a design flaw in the way the water conduit attaches to the tank. The water pulses frequently cut off while the motor is running. It seems that the position of the water conduit is very sensitive for water flow. Therefore the position you have to be in makes it cumbersome and difficult to use. Either that or the unit was 'bad' right out of the box. Either way, not impressive. I usually use interplak--doesn't have thus problem. I was traveling and needed a unit for tooth/gum problem and the travel unit by WP wasn't working that well either.
I brought this about a month ago and WOW. For me it's exactly what I needed. I hated to floss because it caused bleeding. This tool blast away plaque without the bleeding. Only one thing I wasn't happy with is I didn't get a tongue scraper.
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.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Is was great while it lasted, which wasn't very long. Would not recommend. Save money, buy floss.
