Pros: Most importantly my toddler lets me brush his teethe with this brush! The bristles are soft and seem easy to clean.
Cons: no clue what the blinking lights mean. Why is the happy face and sad face lit up together, and always blinking in the morning. Also it doesn’t come with the monster holder that’s shown in every image.
We loved the idea of very hygienic solution for teeth brushing. My son had great times using this tool, enjoyed the lights and the praise in form of smiley when he finished. But as he grew older and had more teeth this toothbrush couldn't keep up anymore and we were forced to switch back to the most basic toothbrush which cleans teeth better. That was by the age of 3.5.
Would rate higher if the bristles were more sturdy. Like other reviewers mentioned, my child chewed many bristles off. Hard to expect a child to not chew at all which should warrant the product makers to make a more durable product. Waste of money.
My son was always trying to use our electric toothbrushes for his teeth and I was worried the pulsations were too strong, even on the weakest setting, so the ISSA baby is perfect as the silicone material and the pulsations are gentle. From the first use, he was so excited to have his own toothbrush and loves cleaning his teeth at least twice a day. The button is easy to press for little fingers. I only wish I'd discovered these toothbrushes sooner. One star knocked off because one bristle came off on the first use. No more have detached since but I have to check everyday.

Only started using it for my 19 month old son, he loves the idea that it vibrates and he loves using it himself but not me helping him so brushing teeth is still a struggle, we will give it some time
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello,
Thank you for your review!
We’re happy to hear your son enjoys the ISSA™ Mikro and finds the vibrations fun! It’s great that he’s taking an interest in brushing, even if it’s still a bit of a struggle. It can take some time to adjust, but with a little patience, he’ll likely get more comfortable using it on his own.
Feel free to reach out if you have any tips or need further assistance. We’re here to help!
I ordered the dino electric toothbrush in blue, it came quickly and I love the design, it’s simple but of good quality. It charged quickly and the battery lasts ages! I definitely feel I am doing a better job of cleaning my babies teeth with it as opposed to using a standard toothbrush. My baby does still grab at the toothbrush but he seems to enjoy putting it in his mouth more than a standard one so this helps when it comes to cleaning his teeth! I would recommend this product, my only negative to say about it is one of the bristles has come off, I don’t know if it came like this and it was a minor fault or whether my baby has bitten it off! So far no more have disappeared but I am a bit disappointed it is damaged after just a short amount of time using it, it wasn’t a cheap toothbrush and I don’t want to have to replace it too soon x
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi there! 😊
Thank you for sharing your thoughtful review! We're so glad to hear that you love the ISSA Baby Bubble Blue Dino and that it has made cleaning your baby's teeth easier and more enjoyable. It's wonderful to know the design and battery life are meeting your expectations! 💖
We’re sorry to hear about the issue with the bristle. While it’s rare, we understand how frustrating it can be, especially with a premium product. It might have been a minor fault or, as you mentioned, caused by your baby biting it.
Thanks again for your feedback, and we hope you and your little one continue to enjoy the Dino! 🦖💙
Although it is very beautiful but I had to return it because I’m not sure if I could clean the brush properly, because they’re very close and of course as it is mentioned, it is not replaceable.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
