good deal Wednesday, July 21, 2010I got these for my kids, they love 'em. Since they are using the same bathroom one charger is sufficient. I use the old Advanced model so I can't compare but now that the same heads fit both models I will be able to test one when I get a new head.
Does its job Saturday, April 24, 2010Great value for our household of 2 (me & my bf). Does its job, our teeth look sparkly whiter than ever!
the whole family uses it. Thursday, April 15, 2010About 9 months ago I bought this set for my family of four. It comes with two adult heads and then I bought two compact heads for my children ages 5 and 7. We have to switch heads around every evening when we're brushing. At first I didn't know how long we'd be willing to keep that up, but we love our sonicare cleanings so much that it feels natural now to deal with a small amount of hassle. Our teeth are so clean now! It seems unthinkable to return to manual toothbrushes...ever! It also seemed natural to be sure that my kids would have the same quality clean. No doubt it will save us pain/money down the road. The first time my kids used the brushes they screamed at the speed of the vibrations. I wasn't sure they'd get used to it, but they did within days. No problems at all. Geez, it felt crazy to me too. But I love the way it feels now. It massages your gums while you brush. Very invigorating.
Anyhow....love it...
cons: the brush heads are SO EXPENSIVE!!! However, we just use them longer than the recommended 3 months and buy a refill pack from Costco. I think it's a worthy investment!
Good but a design flaw Sunday, April 04, 2010Had bought this 2+ years ago somewhere other than Amazon and was for the most part happy. My biggest complaint was that gunk and water gets in between where the brush screws on. I did not think much of this at the time but I recently learned that this then leaked into the unit causing it to fail. As the warranty had expired I was forced to buy a new toothbrush, I bought another sonicare but this time one that should not allow water to get in. Time will tell if I made the right decision.
phillips sonicare is excellent to deal with Saturday, March 20, 2010we've been using sonicare toothbrushes for almost 10 years. we recently had to buy a new one and did not hesitate to buy another. one of the handles however would not hold a charge. we contacted phillips sonicare and they immediately sent out another upgraded model. our toothbrushes have been working great and we are very happy with sonicare. great customer service and highly recommended.
