My Dentist suggested I try using a water flosser. I chose the Water Pik WP-580 based on the name and the features of this unit. It is a different experience to keep my mouth open as I shoot water in, but I do see positive results. My gums appear to be less irritated and feel a bit tighter against my teeth. I will see the Dentist in a couple of months for a more quantitative evaluation of the effectiveness.
Disappointed in this water pick. It’s too big to fit properly in my mouth and doesn’t hold enough water.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're sorry that you were disappointed. Here is a link to a quick how-to video that might help you with your technique. The unit is small as it is designed more for travel, those with little to no counter space, and/or to be used in the shower. Some users may find it necessary to fill the reservoir more than once. https://youtu.be/l02dBOdOxtU
I like this water flosser a lot. It work very well and it's convenient that it's wireless. The only drawback is that the reservoir is small compared to wired models and I typically have to refill the flosser multiple times during a flossing session.
This product does not last long. I'm not even getting 1 year out of it.
