Effective oral flosser that is easy to use
on July 19, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This oral flosser is very effective in my opinion! I have used other flossers in the past. This flosser's water tank is slightly larger than others I've used, and it held enough water for me to get all the way around my mouth on the outside of the teeth/gums, plus a little more. This was helpful when I had a specific location I wanted to focus on a little bit more, and helped me feel like I did not have to rush through the process. (5 out of 5 rating for length of time for each cycle.)
The flosser has two jet settings, regular and one higher level. I kept it on the regular setting as I have fairly sensitive teeth and gums. I also used warm water. The regular setting was slightly stronger than the regular setting on my previous flosser, but it wasn't too bothersome and I just had to adjust my handling/timing a bit to avoid slight discomfort. It would be nicer if it had a "beginner" setting, as someone who has never used a water flosser might find it a bit too intense. Not a deal breaker for me though. I felt like my overall gum health did improve by using the flosser. We'll see what the dentist thinks in a couple of weeks! (4 out of 5 rating for the jet settings.)
Ergonomically I think there could be some improvement. The flosser was essentially just a uniform shaped tube. It wasn't very natural feeling to hold, and occasionally I found myself accidentally turning the flosser off due to the button placement. It would have been helpful I think to provide some sort of shape to the flosser that would help with a more natural hand placement. This wasn't enough of a problem to deter me from using it, but did annoy me somewhat. (3 out of 5 rating for ergonomics.)
I'll say fantastic battery life. I followed the initial charging instructions for the flosser, giving it a full charge. Over a few weeks with using the flosser 1 or 2 times daily, I still have not needed to charge it again! I also like that the charging method is small-space friendly. (5 out of 5 rating for charging and battery life.)
If you have never used a water flosser, this would be a nice, easy one to start with, and you'll never go back to regular flossing again once you make the switch. Water flossers are generally recommended by dentists as they are often more effective than regular floss. I would definitely agree that this flosser is better than regular string floss and is on-par or better than other cordless flossers I've used in the past. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for giving me the opportunity to try out this flosser! Even though I received this product to try for free, I looked up the price point to get an idea of what I thought about the value and I do think the pricing is fair and average for this type of portable water flosser.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this water flosser to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and boy was I thrilled that I did! This water flosser was amazing to use! My teeth have never felt cleaner than when I was using this water flosser! I have extremely sensitive gums and every time I flossed, regardless of how gentle I was, my gums would bleed like crazy! This water flosser is strong enough to get all of the plaque off of my teeth and out of my permanent retainer, but gentle enough that I don’t have a bloody mouth at the end. The fact that it is cordless is also a huge benefit because I can easily travel with it and am not stuck trying to manipulate it’s movement in my mouth as if I were using one with a cord. It is not very loud at all, which makes using it at night convenient because it won’t wake my kids up! I find that with this water flosser, I do floss my teeth more regularly than I did before, and a lot of that is due to the fact that I’m not in pain when I finish flossing! My teeth and gums have never felt more clean or more healthy than since I started using this water flosser!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This flosser is packed with power. I really like the size and that it is cordless, which makes it a lot easier to leave on my counter or stash underneath. It also makes it easier to use in different rooms or even for travel. The charge lasts a long time, and it packs a punch. My teeth and gums feel much cleaner after I use it, and I can tell a difference in plaque buildup. For me, it doesn't replace flossing, but adds to the effectiveness of my oral hygiene routine. I'm already a regular flosser. I was hoping that this would be something my kids could use as more of a regular flossing replacement, but the water pressure is a bit too much for them (they're 8 and 11). For whatever reason, the buttons still get mixed up when I'm using them, and I would like for there to be a more obvious off switch. As it is, when I try to switch it off, half of the time it just changes the power/speed.
Overall, I think it's a great product, and more convenient than other water flossers I have used in the past. I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have absolutely been loving this water flosser! Unlike with string flossing, I have found myself incorporating it into my everyday morning and nighttime routines. With regular string flossing, it seems more like a task to me and I wouldn’t do it as often as I should. But with this, it’s effortless! This flosser makes my teeth feel so clean and smooth. The two setting are the perfect amount of pressure. I was worried that the highest setting would make my gums sensitive, but that wasn’t the case at all! I was also pleasantly surprised at how long it keeps a charge. Thank you to the Stellar Testing Panel for providing me with this product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this flosser for a few weeks now and it is a game changer. The long lasting battery allows me to charge it and store it away when it’s not in use. It’s nice not to have to have it up on my counter top near the outlet taking up space to charge constantly. I have permanent retainers and flossing around them has always been a challenge. This powerful water flosser allows me to get around it with ease. I also like that there’s multiple settings for what power you want to use. It’s got a sleek design and the water tank holds a good amount. Thank you to the stellar panel for allowing me to try this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this flosser and how effective it is at flossing! Using the flosser for a minute or two compared to twice the time using dental floss makes it an easy choice. I was hesitant that it could remove food between my teeth compared to floss, but the blast of water that this little thing has does a very good job. My gums also enjoy the experience! The design is great. It is light, portable, and does not take up much space at all. I like that it holds a charge as long as it does. I think I did not have to charge it for about 10 days. I Have another brand that had a cord that drove me nuts because it would get in the way and took up so much counter space. Not this little guy! I always floss so I would never ot go a day without doing it but having the Quip Rechargeable Cordless Water Flosser now makes its so much easier, convenient, and enjoyable. Plus, my mouth teeth and gums enjoy it as well! I did receive this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After first use of this water flosser, my thoughts were this is messy yet surprisingly effective and fun (until you accidentally hit the back of your throat). I feel that it does a B+ job of flossing where string flossing gets an A+ (and string pick flossing an A-). It gets a good amount of gunk out and my teeth do feel cleaner afterward, but leaves the food that is really stuck tightly in bewteen the teeth where string floss would get it out. However, I am terrible at flossing everyday and I noticed I flossed more often with this water flosser because it felt quicker and easier to use over string flossing. In other words, if it gets me to do any kind of flossing it's an improvement. I have to fill the reservoir at least twice, mostly three or four times. I like the different speed/intensity settings it has. I also like that it's cordless so it's easier to maneuver without a cord getting in the way. It's not that loud, though I have an electronic toothbrush so I might just be used to noise now. I got better with use in terms of water getting everywhere. Figured out how to better loosen my lips where water falls into the sink to backslash only the counter now instead of splashing all over the mirror and counter. Thank you Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending me the Quip rechargeable water flosser to review!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I will be the first admit that I am not the best when it comes to remembering to floss my teeth. For some reason, just using normal floss is a habit that I have not been able to consistently master. When I was offered this product through the stellar product testing panel, I immediately was excited to try a new method of flossing. The water floss is cordless and is easy to use. I feel like it has been able to really clean my teeth and has been easy to implement into my nightly routine. I love the convenience of this product and will definitely continue to use it to improve my oral hygiene. Anyone who struggles with regular flossing I would highly recommend that you try this water flosser.
