Decent first electric toothbrush
on April 19, 2024
Posted by: Musicalone88

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you've been using a regular toothbrush, you will likely notice a difference moving to this electric toothbrush and there's a possibility you may have that clean feeling you have when you've just left your dentist appointment. If you've been using electric toothbrushes, this is likely not going to be very impressive.
I received this product for free as part of a product test and as a long-time user of Philips electric toothbrushes, I am not all that impressed. This toothbrush is simple to use as there is only one button you need to press to turn it on and it's length is more similar to a standard toothbrush. Once you turn it on, it divides cleaning time into six segments - 20 seconds each top left, top center, top right, bottom left, bottom center, bottom right (and you can choose the order based on which hand you use - as a righty, that's what is easiest for me). There is a sound indicator letting you know to move to the next area. This makes a soft hum/whistle type noise that bothers my ears when holding this brush at certain angles and it just winds to an odd end, both of which are very different from my current purchased model.
This toothbrush definitely holds a charge well, which is a great thing. I've been using this twice daily for two weeks and it still appears to only have used 1/3 of the battery power. That's really great as the charger is a USB charger only and when this will need charging, I'll have to charge the toothbrush in another room.
My dentist first recommended I pick up a Philips electronic toothbrush decades ago and I'd found one at Costco that I'd used for over 15 years before it fell on my bathroom tiled floor and would no longer charge. I replaced it with (another purchased) Philips model 9300 as I prefer having options as to what level of intensity I'd like to brush with as well as the cleaning type I'd like. I was left feeling like the model given to me hadn't done as good a job brushing my teeth. It is definitely more cost-effective initially than the model I purchased, though.
Again, if you haven't used an electric toothbrush before and are looking for something a bit more budget-friendly, this would be a decent choice especially because it's by Philips and their products last if you treat them well.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A great tool for my oral health and hygiene!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently upgraded my dental routine to include the Philips Sonicare electric toothbrush, and I must say, it's been a game-changer for my oral hygiene. Let me break down why.
First off, let's talk about the pressure sensor feedback feature. This nifty addition alerts me whenever I'm applying too much pressure while brushing. It's like having a personal dental coach right in my bathroom, reminding me to be gentle on my gums. It's been incredibly helpful in preventing any accidental damage and ensuring a thorough yet gentle clean.
Then there's the BrushPacer feature, which I've come to appreciate more than I expected. It divides the two-minute brushing session into six intervals, prompting me to switch to a different segment of my mouth. This ensures that I'm giving equal attention to each area, preventing any spots from being neglected. It's a simple yet effective way to guarantee a comprehensive clean every time.
And of course, we can't forget about the SmarTimer. Two minutes may seem like a short time, but it's actually the optimal duration recommended by dentists for brushing. The SmarTimer keeps me on track, making sure I hit that two-minute mark every session. It's reassuring to know that I'm giving my teeth the best care possible within the recommended time frame.
Overall, the Philips Sonicare electric toothbrush has truly elevated my dental routine. With features like Pressure Sensor Feedback, BrushPacer, and SmarTimer, it's like having a personalized dental assistant right at my fingertips. My teeth have never felt cleaner, and I can confidently say that this toothbrush has become an essential part of my daily hygiene regimen. I received this product for free as part of a product test.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The toothbrush has a minimalist design with simple operation. Brushing is comfortable and the unit vibrates to let you know to change to the next section of your mouth. I have no issues or complaints regarding this product.

Excellent brush, but with one issue
on April 19, 2024
Posted by: RDJ44
Gender:Male
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The brush works extremely well, especially once you get used to the settings and how to change them. However, connecting the toothbrush to the Philips app would be helpful. Hopefully, that is a feature to be added to the final product.

Best Toothbrush I have ever used period

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how powerful it is and how well it cleans. I have been using similar products for the past 25 years and have always been impressed with them. There is something very different about this brush. Im not sure what it is but it is very powerful and yes precise. It cleans quickly and thoroughly. There is never a session that I feel any debris has been left.

Definitely impressed with this product!!!

Gender:Female
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was skeptical that it was better than pervious product since all their products have been great. But this is definitely a step up from previous toothbrushes. I saw a great improvement in whiteness of teeth and also is cleaning up some of the little bit of tarter and plaque you get in-between dentist cleaning appointments. The 2 speeds are move faster than previous ones I have used in the past but you do need to be careful not to press to hard or it has enough power to give you sensitive spots. The high speed is great for some people but there is plenty of power in low speed to have clean, beautiful teeth.

Excellent Product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This toothbrush is a game changer! After each use, my teeth feel just like they do after a professional cleaning and even seem whiter. It has a special built in reminder to help you pace while brushing to maximize the full 2 minutes of cleaning. It will also give you a warning if you’re using too much pressure.
Please note, I received the product for free as part of a product test.

Toothbrush provides a great cleaning experience!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like how strong the toothbrush feels against my teeth. You can put it on a lower or higher setting, and even the lowest setting gives your teeth a really good clean that feels really good. The toothbrush itself is pretty compact and fits well in my hand. The battery life is excellent as well! I've been using it for two weeks, brushing twice a day and I have still have 2 bars of battery left! The toothbrush is easy to clean and I've experienced other electrical toothbrush getting easily dirty and gunky, but this toothbrush hasn't had any of that. A great toothbrush for those first time buyers of an electrical toothbrush and for those that have tried one, but looking for the right one.
