[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The only reason I gave it a 4 star is that I was upset that it did not come with the little plastic brush cover that my husband's black toothbrush came with. Not sure why the pink toothbrush does not come with the brush cover?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone because it just vibrates the bristles don’t even move.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Bredorf1,
This is not the experience we wanted you to have. The strength of the vibrations can be surprising when you use an electric toothbrush for the first time. It is normal that you will feel more vibration than when using a manual toothbrush. Some models include an EasyStart feature. This feature slowly increases the vibration during the first 14 brushing sessions. It allows you to gradually become accustomed to the vibrations. Have you tried reducing the intensity level. Not all models have the intensity feature. Please refer to the user manual to find out how to change the intensity setting. Your Sonicare toothbrush measures the pressure you apply while brushing to protect your gums and teeth. If you apply too much pressure, the handle will change its vibration. The feedback light at the toothbrush base will flash purple, and the brush head reminder light will blink until you reduce the pressure. We hope this information helps.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My last electric toothbrush that was also Philips was much better! This one seems weaker and inconsistent with the brushing pressure. Its just okay!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sonic Care 4100 is easy to use. The vibration is very effective and my teeth have never felt cleaner after brushing. The timer during the brushing cycle is helpful in ensuring that I take the proper time to brush. The dental technician at my Dentist says she can notice the difference from my prior treatments.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first electric toothbrush. I’m so happy with it! I feel like I’ve been to the dentist every day. My teeth are so clean. I love how long the battery lasts.
