Product Reviews of Philips Sonicare UV Sanitizer
Product Review: Nice product, good idea with cold and flu season coming up...
Summary: 4 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
This is an attractive, easy to use product. I had no problem setting it up and using it. I am not particularly germ-a-phobic, but I like the idea of being able to sanitize my family's toothbrushes during the winter when we historically cycle through one cold/flu/etc... after another.
I wish it accepted more toothbrush types, although I did find a fairly inexpensive Oral B for my kids. Since I am using the sanitizer for my whole family, I also wish it could sterilize more than 2 toothbrushes at a time. Regardless, I still I feel quite satisfied with this product for its ease of use and its presumed effectiveness.
Product Review: Nice to know your brush is clean
Summary: 5 Stars
Very easy to use, easy to clean. Nice peace of mind, knowing your brush head is clean.Product Review: No more recycled germs
Summary: 5 Stars
We love our Sonicare toothbrush. The cost of the replacement brush-heads was actually quite reasonable, considering you only had to do it every six months, and we found it did an outstanding job for our family. (I loved that the 'beep' after each quadrant helped my kids to keep brushing longer and do a better job!)
I have long been an advocate of throwing away your toothbrush after you get sick and starting with a clean one so that you don't reintroduce germs to your body through the dirty brush-head. Using the Sonicare we couldn't do that without having to replace the brush-head early and incurring the cost. Enter the UV Sanitizer-- problem solved. Now we clean our brush-heads on a weekly basis and I don't ever worry that we are recycling germs from the brush-head.
A side note: we had a problem with a bacteria in swimming pools last summer and they tried everyting to get the water clean-- increasing the chlorine in the water to a ridiculous level, closing pools and cleaning them... all to no avail. After researching the problem they have announced that this summer they have a much better plan for keeping the public pools safe for all-- they're going to use UV rays to kill all the bacteria. That just confirmed to me again that this is a really smart investment for a family that wants to keep their teeth clean and healthy without having to buy new Sonicare brush-heads every time someone gets sick. Thanks, Phillips!
Product Review: No problem thus far
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had this product for about a month now, and I haven't had any problems. The process last for 10 mins and your done. I love the fact that it's small and doesn't take up too much space.Product Review: Not All Bacteria
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this not to kill the bacteria that might accrue from general toothbrushing in my mouth, but any bacteria that lingers in the bathroom in general. There is another review which goes into detail about digestive bacteria, etc. which is all very well and good (what? I can give up yogurt?) but I personally am not the only source of bacteria in my bathroom.
And if I linger on that, I might buy a new toothbrush head daily. Bleah.
It's proven that this type of product does zap bacteria, that's enough for me. Nice compact size, and it stores nicely too.
