[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used a Phillips sonicare since inception and this model has been super disappointing. The vibration is too strong and this model does not allow any change in intensity.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very pleased with the product. Having used the product for several weeks and like the clean felling it leaves in my mouth. If for some reason it doesn't get used, my mouth feels crusty.

Quiet, helpful timer, annoying pressure sensor

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love the 4100. This is the second one I have had. I love that it is quiet, and I like the timer with the 30 sec markers, but I can't get used to the pressure sensor buzzing - it really bothers me. The charge lasts for a long time - great for travel. At end of life it is almost impossible to take apart to remove the battery. That absolutely is a design flaw and needs changing. I seriously cut up my hand trying to break down the old one to get to the battery for safe disposal. The charger should come with a plug not a USB connector.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good when it runs, but startup is a problem.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a Philips sonic care for years and loved it. I don’t know what model I had, but this one (4100) is different. It feels less durable, but the thing that bothers me the most is its start up. It often doesn’t start up but just makes a small hum. I must press the on/off button several times before the motor seems to kick in. When it does finally start it is good. I don’t know if this is unique to my toothbrush or to the model. I am thinking of reaching out to Phillips while it is still under warranty to discuss.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't really like the electric toothbrush that much. I would rather just use the manual toothbrush, but my dentist said I should switch. Maybe she has a contract with Philips.
