Product Reviews of Philips Sonicare FlexCare Rechargeable Sonic Toothbrush
Product Review: An interim report
Summary: 4 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I've been using this product for the past couple of weeks (since the date of my last visit to the dentist for an exam and cleaning) and am very happy with it--it's very easy to use, and it seems to be doing a great job. The proof of its effectiveness and value will come some six months from now, however, when I return to the dentist's office for my bi-annual visit. I will report back then with a final evaluation, based on the results of that visit. Until September...!
September update: the improvement was noticeable, my dentist was very pleased.
Product Review: Annoying design causes mold build-up
Summary: 2 Stars
The toothbrush works well but there is a (very) minor thing that drives me crazy about it. When you put on the head, there is this weird space in-between the head and the brush. No matter how much you push it down, it doesn't go away.
Worse than just being annoying, it creates mold. If you don't proactively clean the area once a week, mold will build up because of the moisture trapped there. Gross!
(In addition, it's too easy to push the buttons accidentally while you are brushing). Bad design overall in so many ways!
Product Review: Another very good product from Phillips

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Packaging: The packaging of the device was appealing and organized. The pictures and the white coloring definitely inspired cleanliness. The listing of the features of the toothbrush on the box was short but still informative.
Portability: The toothbrush comes with a travel case that is compact enough to fit in most toiletry bags, however, the brush head needs to be detached in order to fit in it. The charger is very compact and readily able to travel.
Operation: The R910 features 3 brush modes: clean, sensitive, and massage. The clean mode was very intense and takes a little while to get used to, however, once you do it is definitely the most effective mode. It gets teeth very clean as the vibrations are at a significant amplitude. The sensitive mode is a good compromise if you have very sensitive gums. While it does not clean as thoroughly as the clean mode does, it is sufficient for daily use. I would personally not recommend using the massage mode. I felt that it did not make my gums any less sensitive than the sensitive mode, but the difference in cleanliness was noticeable. The R910 also featured timers and personalizeable routines which I didn't find useful.
Overall: Overall, I would say that the toothbrush is very good. The brushes modes are definitely more effective than normal brushing. While the personalizeable routines weren't very useful, the brush modes more than made up for it.

Works great. Love the new head style and the longer lasting battery than our old style screw-in head sonicare.Product Review: Awesome Brush
Summary: 5 Stars
This toothbrush is awesome. It is a little pricey, but absolutely worth it. I am not a fan of electric brushes at all, used many, but by far this brush is the best. It leaves your teeth squeaky clean, and feels good while you use it. Does not damage gums, and it actually ramps up over 2 weeks to full power so that you are not jarred by its power. It's also smaller than any I've used before. Pricey, but worth it.
