"Subtracting one star for the obnoxious brush end-of-life buzzer. Subtracting another star for the two stage vibration. The low stage vibration is not strong enough to clean and it ends up as added button press to ramp up to the high stage. My original goal for upgrading from an older Philips Sonicare to this model was the quieter vibration mode."

Nice. Streamlined, compared to the old one. Glad it uses the same brush heads! Hubby will replace bathroom outlet with a USB outlet, so we don't need an adapter.

After a few root canals, I finally bought the Sonicare. Holy cow, what a difference in my gum health. With the manual (recommended) soft bristled toothbrush, my gums were becoming thin and roots were getting infected. But the Sonicare controls the pressure on your gums! The brush stops vibrating and the handle sends an audible signal to remind you to ease up.After just a week or two, my gums became plump and healthy. No more root canals. I should have bought this years ago.
