[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a dental hygienist and my family and I have been using a Sonicare brush for 20+ years. The brush handle is lightweight and vibrates less than previous models, which I can see as a plus for new users but an adjustment for seasoned users who are accustomed to more vibration. Our teeth still feel just as clean, so that's what matters. The box states that it will hold a charge for 14 days, mine only lasts about 8-9 days (17 brushing cycles - I kept track). Overall, a good brush just a little disappointed in the battery life.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have hated brushing my teeth my entire life but I finally listened to my dentist and took a leap of faith. I’m so thankful I did. This toothbrush is amazing!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I went down from the diamond clean to this line and it just doesn't have enough power in comparison. Sometimes I brush my teeth twice in a row.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi,
Thanks for reaching out to us regarding your Philips Sonicare 4100 Series toothbrush. We are sorry to hear that it does not appear to have enough power and hope we can improve this for you. Firstly, can you make sure the handle is fully charged for 24 hours with no interruptions. Check that the charger is not placed on a metal surface or close to other chargers, as this can interfere with the charging process. Secondly, your Sonicare toothbrush gives you the option to choose between a low and high intensity. You can try the higher intensity to see if this is more suitable by following these steps: 1. Press the power button once to turn on the toothbrush. 2. Press a second time within 2 seconds to change the intensity. We hope these suggestions help!
If you have any further questions, please feel free to get in touch via social media. We’re available 24/7 on Facebook and Twitter. Alternatively, you can reach out to us via the contact page on our website www.philips.com/support. One of our colleagues will then try their best to help you further.
