Yes, this toothbrush cleans your teeth. Really cleans them. But I'm not sold on it. There is a real deal breaker here.
The Good: When compared to my Sonicare, this brand actually works better at removing plaque, and I really, really like the little pick brush. It gets into tight areas and along the gum line if you need it to.
The Bad: There are problems with this product though. Even on the "sensitive" setting, the brushing can be a bit harsh. If it didn't do such a good job, this would have been the deal breaker, but it's not. I remember that when first using the Sonicare, the intensity of the vibration gradually increased over time to allow your mouth and teeth to adjust to the new sensation. This one comes at you full speed from day one - all guns blazing. Also, I really miss the Sonicare feature where it shuts off after 2 minutes. Yes, this one is supposed to beep, but my didn't always do that.
The Ugly: Then there's the deal breaker - the handle ... Read More

So far I like this toothbrush. It is light and very streamline and feels comforatble to use. Can't comment on how effective it is in cleaning my teeth but it feels like it is doing a good job. I like the attachment for cleaning around the gum line.

I am seeing a trend in "vine" reviews. Majority of vine reviewers are restlessly putting the product rating at 5 stars where as non-vine reviewers sound more pragmatic and truthful about the product ? Do vine reviewers do this in fear of loosing the free products in their mail box or what ? If this is the case, Amazon should guard this. We dont want false reviews in Amazon.

I have used several brands of models of power toothbrushes. While I tend to be an Oral-B fan I really felt this model was middle of the road. It does offer some advantages, but at the end of the day the price to feature ratio does not equal up.
ADVANTAGES:
Quiet - While not a huge breaking point, this model does offer quiet operation. Much quieter than any other unit I have used.
Powerful - This unit seems to be fairly powerful. It's not the most powerful brush I've used (as compared to higher priced models), but still works very well. Note: power also shows up on disadvantages.
Size - Great for travel and resembles the smaller, slender size of a standard toothbrush.
Multi-mode - offers two different modes, clean and sensitive.
DISADVANTAGES:
Loose brush head - After some time and use, the brush head (or the mechanism itself) starts to become loose and can pop off. This has also happened on previous ... Read More

It seems other people have had the same problem with the brush head popping off while brushing too. Wish I had read more reviews before buying two! This happened to me and my husband when he tried his...it is really easy to twist ever so slightly while brushing which pops head off. It is not a secure locking head like Sonicare which is frustrating when you are changing angles to brush and find you have to stop and put the head back on. Also, while the handle is very sleek the brush head is not at all. It feels very thick and bulky in the mouth compared to the Sonicare which makes it harder to use properly to reach all areas of teeth. Third issue is minor but to turn off unit you have to hit off twice to cycle pass the sensitive mode to the off mode. Returning two of these and will probably go back to Sonicare for next purchase.
