[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been using different models of the Sonic toothbrush for at least 10 years now. We have consistently been told how well we care for our teeth during our semi annual cleanings with little dental plaque to clean. However we have had to replace the handle every 2 years as the rechargeable battery does not seem to last any longer. It generally gives out just after the warranty period expires.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sonic electric toothbrush has been an invaluable addition to my oral hygiene and the effect is very noticeable. I do think I prefer the higher-end models, which are more adjustable, and next time will go back to that.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The toothbrush works well. My teeth feel very clean. There are definitely improvements to be made. The handle becomes very slippery when wet. It needs some rubber grips on it much like a regular toothbrush has. And the 2 minute timer is way too short. Needs to be at least 50% longer. I have to restart the toothbrush every time to complete the cleaning.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The vibration on this model seems to be tempered which makes me go around all my teeth 3 times. When my hubby needs to replace his, I’ll have to do some research.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] No complaints here. I appreciate that when I had trouble with the power button of my electric toothbrush (the material began to wear down and the power wouldn't turn on/off) I was able to use the warranty to receive a new toothbrush. The replacement works great.
