SIGH....really, are you really asking this question? Is it the 1950's, when this was a new thing?
1. This is a bathroom electrical product. They are only sold with 2-pin plugs.
2. This is to fit the unique 2-pin socket in your bathroom.
3. Why do they have that weird socket in your bathroom, instead of 3-pin, you ask?
4. It's so that you don't plug in anything unsafe in your bathroom - like electric heaters, TVs, or anything else that doesn't like condensation, water, etc. So you don't knock your TV into the bath and die, you know.
5. question answered?

no. But people will leap at seeing that, great marketing for not having to move your arm while brushing!

Low price....buuuuut....
'The Cochrane Oral Health group – an internationally recognised organisation that reviews clinical trails in oral health – compared trials that had been performed with almost 4,000 participants. It found that electric brushes with a rotating oscillating action could reduce plaque by 11% and gingivitis by 6%. However, the majority of electric brushes only seemed to perform about as well as the manual ones.
They couldn’t find conclusive evidence that electric brushes are better than manual brushes in the long term. '

To get good results from manual brushing you have got to know how to brush them properly. The motion used by the majority of people is not effective enough and would not give the same results as a powered brush.

Tempted, but it works out better value to buy one of the cheaper models say the Oral B 2500 and buy the brushes seperately as opposed to them bundled as they are here, as most reviewers of this brush on Amazon seem to suggest.
