Product Reviews of WaterPik WP-60W Personal Dental Water Jet System
Product Review: Been using for over 15 years
Summary: 4 Stars
My dental problems have been dramatically reduced since using the WaterPik. It takes some practice to use it without spraying the bathroom, but when you get used to it, it's easy. It does not replace flossing, but gets out stuff that flossing doesn't. Handle traps water inside which allows thing to grow in there. I drill a hole or two in the bottom of the handle so it can drain, and problem is solved. Rinse handle in hot water after use to keep sanitary. If you find it too noisy, fold a washcloth under it to reduce noise. Also, drying it after use keeps it cleaner (water spots). Just bought the fourth one; first one lasted longer than later ones. Highly recommend.Product Review: Big mess in the bathroom!

Nothing cleans your teeth like a Water-Pik! Or your mirror, or your walls, or your floor..... Trigger doesn't always shut the flow all the way off.Product Review: CHINESE "JUNK" AND THIS IS NOT A BOAT
Summary: 1 Stars
To be very honest, I only post negative experiences with products since it is my belief that when one purchases a product good quality should be a given. I own TWO of these units, which are model WP-65W, essentially the very same unit as the 60W. All of the negative issues already posted, such as the motor seizing, have been experienced by me. I am posting this review because China has come to earn a very negative reputation for producing inferior quality, just read the newspapers. On the other hand, WATERPIK is responsible for the specifications on these products. I use these units because I have gum disease and daily use helps me. There seems not to be much of a choice in the marketplace just now.Product Review: Can't live without it
Summary: 4 Stars
It's still not perfect but it works better than the last one I had (that one held up much longer than I thought possible). Anyway, I can't live without it - it's the only way my mouth feels clean.Product Review: Can't pump water anymore
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought a WaterPik in about 1963, and it ran fine till about 2001, when the pump wore out. Teledyne, the new owner of the brand, said no replacement parts were available. I bought a new WaterPik, expecting another 40 years of use -- silly me! The switch malfunctioned in a couple weeks, and I exchanged the Pik for another one. This one ran okay till a few weeks ago, when it lost its ability to provide pulses of water at more than one setting. Yesterday, even that setting produced insufficient pressure to serve any purpose. And the water in the reservoir simply ran out the bottom of the unit. I assume the pump leaked. Anyway, the firm listed on the WaterPik web site as the repair place in Dallas says it does no repairs, but only ships units under warranty back to Teledyne. Anybody know another brand of oral irrigator that I can try?
