2.0 out of 5 stars Kudos to successfully whitening teeth while fattening corporate wallets, March 23, 2008

As a person whose oral hygiene was greatly improved by this product (much healthier gums and cleaner teeth), I have to give Sonicare credit for designing an effective product. I would have given it five stars, except for the insulting price.

As a professional engineer, I consider the whole $14 per brush-head a slap in the face. I see no reason these brush heads couldn't have been designed as simple screw-on plastic heads that would have cost pennies to make, except that Philips could never have charged $14 per replacement for small, simple pieces of plastic.

Congratulations Philips/Sonicare, you've succeeded in fattening your wallets at additional, unnecessary cost to the consumer and to the environment. You've successfully copied the inkjet printer industry's business model. /golfclap

Update: it looks like the new Sonicare ProResults brush heads have a much better, eco-friendly design. Too bad they are still quite pricey, though $8 per head is a big improvement.

4.0 out of 5 stars Can't imagine using a regular toothbrush now, April 26, 2008

Very nice product! Your teeth just feel very clean after using it, much more than with a regular brush for the same amount of time. The one drawback is that it's difficult to clean the under/inner potion of the brush head. So it gets a bit grimy with old saliva well before you're supposed to replace it (even if you wash it every week as recommended). But other than that, it works great, including good battery life.

4.0 out of 5 stars Tons better than a regular brush, but gets DIRTY on inside, April 22, 2008

What are you going to do--you bought this expensive toothbrush, and now you have to pay for the heads. You have to take it apart EVERY DAY to clean it; I bought a sonicare cover to keep it dry. The brush heads don't last as long as they're supposed to, but I'm a vigorous brusher (they last me a month and a half at best)..
