Product Reviews of Violight Duo Toothbrush Sanitizer
Product Review: Great if you have skinny toothbrushes
Summary: 2 Stars
I was so excited to get my toothbrush sanitizer and then I realize that my regular toothbrush doesn't fit! So now i am stuck using the toothbrushes that THEY provided. My question is, when it's time for me to buy another toothbrush am I to go around look for skinny ones that will fit. If I could return it I would.
Update: had this product for a bit over 2 months changing the batteries several times already and still the UV lights are so dim I wonder if it is even sanitizing anymore.
Product Review: Peace of mind!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm one of those people who tends to stay sick for some reason or another...and changing out my toothbrush every time was becoming much more expensive than this little gadget so I decided to give it a shot. I can't say that the device actually works, as I've not analyzed the toothbrush under a microscope, but it certainly makes me feel better to think that the happy, blue light is doing something. If you're in the market for a toothbrush sanitizer, I highly recommend Violight Duo after owning it.
The case mounts on a wall with a generic sticky foam mount so doesn't take up precious counter space. The holder can also slide off of its mounted location in your bathroom so you can travel with it. The case hangs upright, you don't have to worry about your toothbrush sitting in a pool of mildew-ridden water (isn't that counteractive of having a clean toothbrush?). The cleaning cycle lasts for less than 10 minutes and begins automatically when you close the case. Your toothbrush is stored in a closed area with a vent at the bottom, therefore minimizing exposure to floating bacteria and germs in your bathroom without risking molding from being entirely closed in.
If you want to move the sanitizer after it's mounted on your wall, that could prove problematic, so think carefully about where you want it placed first. As another reviewer noted, some toothbrushes with larger handles don't fit. I didn't like the generic toothbrush it came with (it has super soft bristles), but didn't have much trouble finding a toothbrush better suited to my needs -- I really found that only one brand of "non-skinny" toothbrush didn't fit and then it was barely so. Obviously electric toothbrushes wouldn't fit in this case, but it's possible the heads would if they're removable.
I've had this gadget for a few months now and haven't had any problems with battery life or anything else. I'm extremely pleased with it, if all else for the peace of mind that comes along. ...and my boyfriend and I haven't been swapping colds back and forth, so I'm hoping it actually does something!
