BATTERY
The display is advantageous in the handpiece, which denounces by blinking when the battery charge has dropped below 20%. A full charge takes 24 hours. The manufacturer recommends that you leave the battery in the charger so that the battery remains charged. So he empties else of himself, but what can be regulated well through the display.
Brushing
In fact, you will experience a completely new feeling flush. At first it tickles something comparable to a professional dental cleaning. This goes back but after the first few applications, and transforms itself in a pleasant feeling, even though according to the manufacturer, the intensity during the first 14 applications will be further enhanced. Otherwise you have to observe just the usual, holding and pushing not even brushing. And since you really get the feeling of a perfect cleaning, be careful in case of doubt that you're not dressing for too long. For the Sonicare go out after two minutes. In between there are alls 30 seconds for a short break to remember the change of cleaning the place.
THE EREGEBNIS
The decisive difference to other electric toothbrushes is to put it bluntly, that does not rotate here the brush head, but the bristles themselves or they vibrate. First, you think, this might not be so easy to clean as a fast rotating head, but there is likely to be fooled. Similar to a pan cleaning, solid scrubbing is often less successful than gentle brushing and also damaged the pan.
Contribute to the evaluation of the result is in addition to the feeling of a comparison. For this I took my old appliance, much cheaper (19 euros), but at least with a rated "Good" by Ökotest. Lo and behold, I could not believe it, but the teeth looked after using the Sonicare from significantly purified. This one has a feeling that one has just subjected to teeth and gums a wellness spa.
CONCLUSION
In my view, these are a top device, this also in price / performance ratio. The replacement brushes (8 Pack in about 5 euros each) may seem a bit expensive but the manufacturer extends a change every three months. That makes 20 in which one would spend for conventional toothbrushes.
