On the plus side, it is relatively more compact than other portable oral irrigators. But the negatives outweigh the positive. First, the jet is too weak to clean effectively. Second, the reservoir is too small. I needed multiple refills to make one clean.

I have both versions of the Panasonic oral irrigators, and they work great, last forever, and are inexpensive to boot.

So what if you have to refill the water once or twice to finish the job?

this is a replacement for the same irrigator that I have used for years. Bought it because of the performance of the one replaced.

you'll be amazed at how much can get stuck between your teeth even after brushing

Works as it is suppose to - don't expect it to be as powerfull as a 110v one but it works for me. If left to sit for an extented period, you may need to soak overnight to clear the pickup.

I purchased this product having just committed to one year plus with a full mouth of braces. I have been using it for four months now and it has so far stood the test of time. It will not, however, last forever. It is lightweight and travels with me almost everywhere. I use it after meals for a quick clean. It feels great on the gum line and my Orthodontist constantly remarks on the great upkeep of my teeth (I also use and panasonic electric toothbrush). If I had a bigger apartment, I would certainly commit to a more serious, larger machine...but if you're pressed for counter space and on the go this will suit you just fine. I have no problem filling the tank a few times, but I do wish it was under $30.00 because I have a feeling (because of constant use) I will have to replace it before the year is up.
