Quietest Sonicare I've had

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] *** I received this product free as part of a product test ***
The item is a typical Sonicare toothbrush that once turned on stays on for two minutes per button press. It has two options for brushing style - sensitive and clean. Also, there's three speeds (1, 2, or 3 lights). The brush does make an audible sound every thirty seconds to let the user know that they need to move to the next area of the mouth. The battery on the toothbrush does last longer than my other toothbrush so that was positive for me. However, I would likely use a different brush as the bristles are entirely too soft for me and I don't feel that it's brushing or cleaning enough compared to my other brushes.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Powerful, compact and great battery life

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the size and weight of the toothbrush. It is much lighter than previous electric toothbrushes. I enjoy the various settings for speed and cleaning. The timer works great to ensure I'm staying on pace with brushing the areas of my teeth. The only complaint is it got scratched up easier than I anticipated (while traveling). Oh, the battery life is AMAZING. I have not charged it once for over 2 weeks and see no loss in power.

An effective clean but could use some improvements
on April 26, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used sonicare products for years now and love their reliable cleaning skills. This new sonicare does a good job of cleaning my teeth, but I prefer the four tones for segment cleaning of your mouth over the 6 that it now has. I normally do bottom front, bottom back, top front, and top back and switching to six segments makes it harder to remember where I have been and insure cleaning is done evenly.
I do like the flashing notification that you are pressing too hard, but think that having it notify you when you are at ideal pressure (green) would be really helpful as there is no way to indicate that the pressure is too light.
I do prefer my other sonicare for it's charging (place it in the glass cup and with a wall outlet) I don't mind the set it on the base charging, but having to find my own wall plug in with the proper specs needed to connect the USB cord provided was very annoying especially if you are traveling.
The power level of this brush also feels weak compared to my normal sonicare. I have it turned up to the highest level which doesn't seem as good as the standard level for our current sonicare.
The new brush head is definitely softer than I was expecting and only a week into use it has already flared out quite a bit. I don't see this brush head lasting as long as a standard brush head with normal use.

Final thoughts:
The brush handle works well as a basic sonicare but is definitely lacking some power/ features of the more premium models. I do think that customers switching from manual to this model will be happy with the switch and see improvements in their oral health. I do think that investing in one of the better quality brush heads will make the brush handle significantly better and it would be great to see how it performs with the A-3 premium brush heads I usually use.

Cleans teeth thoroughly
on April 25, 2024
Posted by: Roxieklauspetey
Gender:Female
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the overall design of the brush and it cleans my teeth thoroughly. However even using the low setting it seems to be very high vibration and makes my teeth sensitive. Maybe I will get more used to it when I use it more. The charge lasts a really long time which I love.

The toothbrush is both powerful and soft.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoy using this toothbrush because I feel like my teeth were just professionally cleaned every day. The pressure alert light is helpful. Switching through modes makes it easy to find the perfect clean for your individual needs. I would definitely recommend this product to friends and family.
