The Sonicare toothbrush is perfect for part of one's oral hygiene care. Does and excellent job of cleaning the teeth and strengthening the gums. Easy to use. Solidly built. One charge lasts a week of brushing (4 times a day). Highly Recommended.

New toothbrush takes some getting used to using.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought the Philips Sonic 4100 Series electric toothbrush in August after our E Series Philips electric toothbrush began to only work intermittently. We had the E Series for about 15 years and thought it did a very good job cleaning our teeth and gums. The 4100 Series took some getting used to. It feels different in my hand and feels different on our teeth but does feel like it is doing a sufficient job. The next trip to the dentist will tell the story. I also like that there are 2 speeds.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not sure what is wrong with me, but the excessive saliva that gets produced, and runs down my hand, or has me leaning over the sink, makes this very inconvenient to use with dubious effectiveness. I use less than 1/8 of a teaspoon of toothpaste (on the advice of my dentist to use 'less' than normal) and it still causes me to drool. With any less, and I bet that I'd get the benefit of no fluoride. And that makes me think that this is kinda worse for my teeth than manual brushing ?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Planned obsolescence?
on September 18, 2025
Posted by: Tooth Haver
When I purchased this tooth brush I immediately noticed that the feeling of quality was significantly worse than the Sonicare I had had for ~8yrs before (the battery finally wore out). It was much lighter and felt cheaper (the old version plastic was a glossier, higher quality finish).
After about 6-8 months the metal piece which the replaceable heads fit to started to become loose. Progressively over the past month or two it has now become unusable.
I am disappointed to see that Philips has been significantly downgrading the quality of their Sonicare toothbrushes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased due to a recommendation from Wirecutter and never looked back. It's everything it reports to be: quiet, powerful and sleek. One thing I noticed early on was that the on off button was the same color as the body so visually it was harder to locate than through feel.
