[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did not like several things about this toothbrush. First, it times brushing in 6 sections and I want 4. The product does not allow tailoring. Second, the design of the handle is poor. It is large and unwieldy. The button that adjusts the intensity is positioned where it can be inadvertently pushed during brushing. Finally, and this is truly a personal preference, the speeds greater than 1 are uncomfortable.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

HX993B - Black Mold & Loose Head

I loved this product when I first received it! Easy to use and great results for my first electric tooth brush. But this last year the rubber at top of head wear brush attaches has developed black mold and I always rinse and dry my tooth brush after use. The shaft the holds brush head in has also come right out of the hold before and since then the brush head does not sit flush with tooth brush and is loose.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Toothbrush

I had the original sonicare toothbrush, and this is definitely an improvement. Vibration is way stronger, and I feel my teeth are a lot cleaner. Deep Clean mode is a must as well. Phone app is alright, but I didn't expect too much from a smart toothbrush as of now.
Pros: strong vibrations, many modes, holds a long charge
This product is pretty eye-opening. Using it’s Bluetooth technology and application on my phone I have learned that after 40 years of brushing my teeth I brush them way too hard. This toothbrush and app will let you know whether you’re using too much pressure or moving the head too quickly. There are at times connectivity issues and I wish the app kept your history but other than that I have no complaints and would purchased this again
Pros: phone app
Cons: price
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great improvement on an already great product

I was thrilled to receive a FREE Philips DiamondClean Smart HX9903/01 tooth brush in exchange for trying it and writing this review!
I have purchased a few Sonicare toothbrushes and have been using one twice a day for about 20 years and I love this product. I didn't care for my teeth very well in my youth and had lots of cavities, root canals, and crowns. In the decades since I began using Sonicare I have had maybe 2 or 3 small cavities and my gums have remained very healthy, especially for someone 55 years of age. My dentists and hygienists always compliment the health of my teeth. Cleanings are a breeze! I am a believer in Sonicare!
The new brush heads for different areas of focus are wonderful. And the glass as charger is ingenious. I only wish I had the model with the travel case/charger that plugs into a USB port. What a great idea. And connecting to the app to gauge progress is another new plus that I am enjoying.
The only small thing I find that might be improved is the placement of the control on the unit. Occasionally i accidentally change the setting with my pinky finger while brushing.(Maybe because I'm left-handed?) Not a big deal, though.
I probably would have bought this product eventually when my current Sonicare finally wears out. They last so long it would be a while. I would recommend it to anyone!
Pros: lightweight, easy to use, keeps teeth and gums healthy
Cons: control placement can allow pinky to change......., ....setiings unintentionally during brushing
I would recommend this to a friend!

Overall Great Product

I have had this brush for a couple of days now, and I am loving it. Good design, very easy to use, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone.
Pros: good design, travel case, wireless charging, great app, says if you are brushing too hard, charging glass
Cons: it’s a little unstable when you sit it down, expensive brush replacements
Yes this product has great features. As a dental professional for many years, I would recommend it to anyone. I like the design & the ease in traveling with the unit. Much better than the older models. I love the black color its amazing. The only problem I find is the pulse times is too soft. I know how long to spend in each quadrant, but it is hard to feel that pulse. Perhaps for an older person it could be a problem. Overall I LOVE IT!
