Product Reviews of HydraBrush Express Power Toothbrush
Product Review: not enough of a good idea
Summary: 2 Stars
I was sad that I had to send this back but its not quite there yet. Not enough power, my teeth didn't feel clean because they were not clean. And the noise.....couldn't keep it. Excellent Idea needs more work.Product Review: perfect for the disabled
Summary: 5 Stars
i have the use of one arm, and have poor muscle control, i couldn't brush my teeth without stabbing my gums (painful). hydrabrush is perfect for anyone with poor muscle control, and it's easy to use, for their caregivers to assist.Product Review: ugh
Summary: 1 Stars
this toothbrush is very awkward to use and not worth the expense
sonicare is much better even if you need to use it for 2 minutes instead of 1
Product Review: wow, this thing is cool
Summary: 5 Stars
i was really skeptical about the hydrabrush but i had to buy one because i HATE brushing my teeth, and i mean i REALLY hate brushing my teeth. it is by far my most hated chore, even though i was using an oral b sonic complete which is way better than a manual and only takes a little over 2 minutes to get a good cleaning.
i just used this for the first time and it was better than i expected. the toothpaste was a little harder to put on, but it sticks to the brush and if you don't turn on the brush until it's in your mouth you'll be fine. you start with it on your FRONT teeth. this is important because you have to bite down on the bristles. once you have this contact established, you turn it on and move it to the back of your mouth. then you have to *switch hands* and do the same to the other side. i wasn't thrilled about using my left non-dominant hand, but found it was easy because you don't have to brush back and forth like other brushes. i brushed over my teeth twice because i didn't believe this thing could possibly get my teeth clean enough.. but they were sparkling! and it was really fast! brushing the top and bottom teeth at the same time, with minimal effort and a great cleaning? you can't ask for more than that! it's the best brush on the market! i did have a couple of instances where the brush bumped my teeth, but then i learned to open my mouth wider when brushing the back teeth. it's really not as hard as it looks, and there's no pain involved. i'm excited about using the fast setting, and seeing how fast i can brush my teeth!!
pros - the above.. it comes with a tongue scraper which is good for bad breath, somehow it avoided a lot of the mess i am accustomed to as far as toothpaste getting everywhere. it was VERY clean and self-contained. it's also just more FUN to use. and it's quieter than my oral b sonic complete.
cons - you can't use it in the shower. the replacement brushes are kinda expensive and have no wear indicator.
i think the hydrabrush is simpler to use than other brushes.. when you think about it, normal toothbrushing is pretty complicated. this simplifies the process AND gives a better clean to boot. and compared to the price of other electric brushes, THE PRICE IS RIGHT!!!
