[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have returned this toothbrush. It was so sensitive to the pressure that it didn't run a lot of the time and I barely had it on my teeth. The timer wasn't long enough to get all my mouth done. This is my third Sonic are so it's not like I didn't know what to expect.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally replaced my old Sonic toothbrush. This new model is thinner and more powerful than my older model. I feel like my teeth are ultra clean after using it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the very best toothbrush I’ve ever had! I have been recommending this to my friends. My teeth have become so many shades brighter and my moth feels so clean! Sometimes I brush twice. I love this and will never go back to any other toothbrush.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought 2 minutes was a long time to brush teeth, but time flies by now! The soft bristles feel wonderful against mt gums.
This product is great for those who brush too hard

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This toothbrush does take some getting used to. I have always used an electric toothbrush but not the Sonic. It cleans good and I like the way it detects if you are brushing to hard.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this model to replace a similar Philips toothbrush,This brush head is smaller than the other ones I’ve had but you can also use the larger brush head ,I’ve found I like this smaller brush head to fit in tight spots,and there’s plenty of power too , so I’d give it 5 stars !
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sonicare cleans much better than the electric toothbrush that I used to use. Better features and great battery life.
