Worked Great until the "snap" disappeared and all it would do is groan, then next day,nothing.. Required recharging about once a month, but after dying - Nothing. If I could find instructions on Battery replacement I'd try it.
This is a very interesting device. It's sturdy and well constructed. The battery life is excellent. The charging stand design is elegant and is compatible with my Soncare toothbrush.
It works fine for me, maybe a bit messy. If I feel spry, I'll squirt the nozzle at the dogs from across the room.
My girlfriend has tight interproximal gaps and the water jet just caroms off her teeth, making a mess. She classifies the AirFloss as "the most profoundly useless device ever".
Since she doesn't care for it, and is tired of my canine target practice, I had to find a better use for it. So far, I found works great filling the reservoir with vermouth. The little spritz makes a perfect dry martini!
Pros: well constructed, convenient, great battery life, great bar tool
Great product except oops battery won't hold charge
Customer service says - "battery can fail from over-charging - -do not leave on charger constantly, wait until light on handle changes color indicating low charge"
The tiny insert says something vaguely like this without DO NOT DO NO DO NOT PARK HANDLE ON CHARGER
and so should be rewritten
likewise a clear tape message could be taped on to the handle of the same alarum
You can change your insert and stick-on more easily;y than re engineering your product, I expect
Works great if you are not a flosser. You're gums will bleed a little at the beginning but once you use consistenly they will no longer bleed and gums will be healthier! Get an excellent exam at all your dentists appts. I like it with mouthwash! Worth it for my family!
Charged and followed all the instructions, it appeared to lose charge and stop working so recharged it for a day, noticed the resevoir was empty so refilled, turned it on, pressed the button and it made as whirring sound and all the liquid disappeared into the handle recess somewhere, and it just made a grinding sound before stopping...repeated with water, not mouth wash, same result, what a waste of money going back for money back tomorrow....an absolute waste of time and effort too, not fit for purpose
Pros: nice form
Cons: ony supposed to do the front of teeth not the bac, broke in a heart beat, gets sticky very quickly, noisy
Great at first but after time the nozzle will fly off like a missile and. If you hold the nozzle in place it still works fine but takes 2 hands to operate.
