sonicare is quite pricey, at least the replacement, definitely go look for cheaper replacement heads, those should work. or you can look into off-brand ones that are even cheaper.
Oh yeah i always get off brand replacements. Their only disadvantage is that you dont get automatic reminders to replace the head, but i dont mind.
Aside from that its pretty crazy, that the original ones have a nfc chip (i think) on them to enable these notifications - something that is absolutely insane on a prduct you throw away regularly in my opinion.
So I are is amazing. However, like everything with a battery, it starts to deteriorate after a year and dies after 2 years. I love them though. If you go from a sonic are to an oral b, it feels like you’ve gone from the brush of the future, to using a broken lawnmower in your mouth.
i dint like sonicare, so i bought an off brand off amazon. seems likes even better than a sonicare, and with free 6 heads. i think there many to choose from(definitely look at the reviews on the off brand for reliability).
the one i had was by “teetheory”(most likely chinese in origin) and it had 5 different modes, and a custom mode, and you can set the intensity of each mode, or your customized version.(this one isnt sold anymore). its quite sturdy, as i dropped it so many times there was no malfunctioning.
I have read abput reliability concerns, especially with the cheaper models. However for myself i have only had issues in my family once out of four times and i was able to fix it by opening it up and tightening a screw that held the head…
I have used both and my wife too. The Sonicare is a fucking garbage toothbrush. The oral-b is superior in every way. Speaking with my dentist and prior dentists, they also agree. The little buzzing bullshit doesn’t do a near good enough job in removing as mechanical motion of the oral-b
Surprised noone mentioned Phillips sonicare. It is European, or am I wrong?

Sonicare is very good, but I think we can say, that it’s not entirely european. It seems at least China is in the boat too.
the current models are cheap and very flimsy, went with an offbrand one.

I’ve had my sonicare for years but last I checked replacement heads were $30 for a pack of 3 on amazon.
Every Sonicare toothbrush I’ve owned has torn itself apart after a year of use.

Yeah, I recently got one, and it said made in Netherlands I think.

Interesting, my dentist says the opposite, and my subjective feeling always was that my teeth feel cleaner than before…
Yeah don’t believe everything you read on the internet
my bros sonicare’s broke too easily, and i bought offbrand ones and they are more resiliant than a sonicare,and more features.
