BATTERY
A clear drawback is that you have no level indication. Are not as low, the 16 hours charging time for full charge. Either you bring the battery then "mess" or must use a day, a manual toothbrush. The capacity reached twice in cleaning day for 8 days. Could also be something more.
Brushing
The handpiece is touted as super grippy. My daughter (9) had a short explanation no problems when applying. When brushing result I have on my visual inspection, leave the statements of my daughter, Oral B and Stiftung Warentest. All good.
Optimal is that you have these children's toothbrush with a timer. So the children have a focus and maintain automatically at the recommended minimum of two minutes. Moreover, you really 30 seconds each is dedicated to the four areas. Taking a toothbrush is cleaning often clearly unconscious.
ELECTRIC FOR CHILDREN?
Last time there was a WISO test which classified the electric toothbrush in children not more advantageous than a manual toothbrush. I think here it comes on both sides first time on the quality of toothbrushes on. Since you can rely on the Oral B. Comparing them is z. B. better than a times also used electric toothbrush of a discounter.
and m. E. There is an interesting effect that speaks for electric toothbrushes: children brush their teeth so dear and conscious. You do not stop for a cleaning sensation, but after two minutes. Personally, I do not want to also check my child doing forever.
THE DESIGN
Gift, regardless or perhaps even motivating.
PRICE-PERFORMANCE
The Oral B is slightly more expensive than discount brushes, but also better. The price problem begins with the brush. Here you have to pay for about 4 euros. As one gets four pieces in others. However, one must take into account that we, too, the manual toothbrush has to regularly exchange and because costs also good from 2 euros upwards. And finally, as my own experience, you can use brush for more than manual toothbrushes. Total investment is therefore worthwhile, in my view.
CONCLUSION
A "Yes" to the electric toothbrush and then also for Oral B Stages. There are departures due to the cordless director. More comfort is one but probably not find this in this price range.
