Adept far dune Philips Sonicare toothbrush (model HX 9332/04), I test the competition with this Oral B. I went from the Roll Royce of electric toothbrushes to a diesel big! The change was radical and rather unpleasant at first. Compared to Philips, with several programs -including one for gums sensibles- here is diet "clean" and that's it! Suffice to say that the first attempts were not very pleasant, some bleeding during brushing, and a feeling of having to "drive" a not very delicate craft: a noise very great bell in the mouth, coupled with brushing rather muscular. Those are the impressions, inconclusive on these points. Supplied with a single brush But you can easily find the spare (2 types: rotary or flat) in many stores (unlike the famous Philips). We regret the absence of the storage case, lon handy when on a trip and when we know that this type of toothbrush is sensitive to shocks. Also note a fairly long time to load, about 20 hours, even after the first loading. Once loaded, you have a short week at 2 brushings per day before having to recharge. As for the results of brushing, essential, we must agree that his office does very well: after 2 minutes of regulation after which -in this brush motor emits a signal close to the point of release-you have the sensation of clean, smooth teeth free of plaque, it's a very good point for this brush. Its ergonomics are good: nice grip, on / off button enough "hard" and well placed thereby avoiding inadvertent support dy. In summary, a very good cleaning action, but like "rough around the edges", and a bit expensive for a single program.
