Buying a pink electric toothbrush at 5:30am. Only HUKD could sink me to such lows.

Are people completely thick or what? Why do people keep saying this sort of thing. Don't deride items that you know absolutely nothing about!
And don't compare one thing with something else completely different. Give me strength...

To be honest, I don't really like Pink items and it's a bit lame when items marketed to women are Pink and the price is bumped up. But it also means, as in this case, sometimes you find it in the bargain bin.

And don't forget, Pink was a Boy's colour in Victorian times :innocent:
Yes, you can get mini brush heads too http://www.amazon.co.uk/Philips-Sonicare-HX6024-26-Results/dp/B00DE8V4NC
As for the comments about Dentists pooh-poohing Sonic brushes, I am surprised. A few years ago my dentist said "Whatever you're doing to your mouth, keep doing it"...I told him I regularly scrape my tongue, use sonic brushes and either no-alcohol or Listerine mouthwash (whatever's on offer at the time). No fillings for years apart from the ones that are deteriorating getting fixed.

This HealthyWhite (this will be my third of this model) has 31,000 sonic pulses/minute, same as the model down EasyClean HX6511/XX*, which is sometimes on offer for £25 or so, and the newer Healthywhite + HX8911 is also 31,000.

*The two digits after the model number refer to the brush supplied, either ProResults Standard, DiamondClean or Sensitive.

Also, don't forget to register your toothbrush on the Philips' website, so you're covered by the 2 year guarantee. Given that both my HealthyWhite brushes (same brush handle design as the pink) had a problem with the button after a year or so, you may need it!

Mine also has the Sensitive mode, but I must admit I never use it, so the HX6761 not having it isn't a problem. Always best to put it on the lowest setting at first as it can be a bit of a shock moving from manual brushing to sonic!

Edit: Oh, and another thing, use a little slick of Vaseline on the metal prong when putting on a new brush head - it creates a tighter seal but also makes it easier to remove (heard of some brush heads breaking off but there's no problems when you use a little Vaseline - my old Ultrasonex had it in the instructions, strangely the Sonicare doesn't mention this).

Hold on...wasn't there a BIG hoo-Haa being made by feminists last week that girly coloured things (pink) are more expensive and therefore it's sexiest?.....where are them muppets now?

Typical women...only complain when it suits.

I was about posting this one about 2 days ago, I'm not sure if it's counts but this have already been posted http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/philips-sonicare-healthy-white-pink-edition-electric-toothbrush-25-tesco-2377903

Interested how it goes :smirk: , nevertheless hot from me

>>>>>
Had to get this one as *girly pink* is all the rage in Ibiza for this coming summer now.. ;-)

thank you!

Thanks, just what I wanted.

Thanks op! purchased !

Haha, I totally hear you.

....EVEN THOUGH I KNOW YOU'RE WATCHING OTHER SITES, I KNOW YOUR GAME!

​I think it does count. previous deal was a one off in-store deal. This one means everyone can buy it online! (like me)

Purchased thank you OP!

>>>>>
LOL!! Very true back in the *day* might have looked at other sites every so often.. but then
the 20th century clicked in and I found out how fast a dual api rss feed on a 100gbps dark fibre
line is :smile:

Still not managed to outdo myself since my "HP argos deal" but if they were pink
laptops, that deal might have got hotter a lot slower!!!!

The perils of modern life!

#firstworldproblems

Pink in Ibiza after the party might be quite desirable one :sunglasses: , everybody will love it :smile:

great find, hot!

Amazon should price match this?

thanks op, it might be pink but it is a very good price, so decided to go for it and give it a try

Thanks! Even better with staff discount :smiley:

Cheers opp, got one

Bought thank you

Ordered ta. Wife and I can share and just swap heads. Not bothered on colour - current brush is purple!

Thanks!

Great thanks!! Wanted one to put away for a gift for my mum :smiley:!

>>>>>
Ah yes Rabbit I can see it now.. brand new hukd pink toothbrush owners thread.. few jugs of sangria
and everyone holding their Pink Sonicare's in the Air.. like they just don't care.. to this amazing chune..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFfgmsziUS8:smile:


>>>>>
Is it much more you get off EF? Glad you got one!


>>>>>
Cool, everyone keep buying.. the warehouse staff should start to get fed up with hukd around about now.. walking back and forth to the picking location on the rack for these!!!


>>>>>
Welcome ;-)

does it take only special heads ?
And if so where can i get them cheap ?
I use the normal oral B one now

No just 10% but still! 22.50 :smiley:

Good deal - thanks OP. Voted hot and ordered one.

how does it compare with oral b 650 or 2000?

Very good deal if you can find it tho !

Thanks a lot!

Where can you buy the replacement heads the cheapest?

change OP to HX6711?

Only this afternoon the Mrs asked for a new one, great timing...Thanks!

Just ordered, great thanks, looking forward to my lovely white sparkly teeth!!

I just searched HX 6074 and there seems to be lots of cheap copies on amazon of the diamond heads

think ill get one too dont care if its pink lol

Balls ..... just paid 35 quid for one of these .. ace little brush all the same

other sources show the healthywhite having 3 settings but the link to the one pictured for tesco only shows 2 ....?

my oral b is starting to pack up so just in time for this deal! the battery on the oral b seems to be not lasting as long as it was.

ordered thanks :smiley:

^ah thanks.
was reading a rewiew and turns out they had a photo of the diamond one under the healthy white heading ... meh.
argh torn between this or the oral b 650 or 2000 but both oral b's have been cheaper than they are now.

Pretty in pink..



.I feel a song coming on...

+ it's the HX6711 being sold, not the HX6761 as tesco have incorrect labelled

thanks just ordered

interesting as Amazon doesn't even have this model. also eBay have this for around £34 so not a massive bargain.

Then i stand corrected, nothing was showing up on Amazon for 6761 but noticed in tesco description it was the 6711...which does also show up on Amazon with the same pic

I'm guessing the different code is the colour then?

Can you use any Sonicare heads with these?

Dead heat

Any voucher codes?

Bought myself one. Thank you op.

Also have one reduced from £150 to £37.50p in lavender with an extra setting

http://www.tesco.com/direct/philips-sonicare-healthywhite-lavender-rechargeable-toothbrush-hx672135/199-3392.prd?pageLevel=&skuId=199-3392

Is this any better than the standard easy clean?

Other half has been banging on about how good these are so got myself one, thanks OP.

I can put up with pink for £25 :smiley:

The Phillips sonic toothbrushes have VERY expensive heads, where the oral b ones are about 2-4 quid each normally ...!

All the sonicares do 31,000 vibrations as maximum (besides for the powerup model).

Hot! But going to give this a miss as I am sick of the battery packing up and having to buy a new one every 1-2 years.
Whats the difference between the normal brush mode and the whitening mode? An extra 30 seconds of cleaning after the 2mins? Would be better to just buy the cheaper model lower down and clean for an extra 30secs yourself.

Thanks for posting fab deal ordered

Thanks, ordered one for me and one for sis. Guess I'll just need to deal with the fact that it's...pink

Hope I'll feel a difference with my Ora B 650

Ordered. Great deal!

Was £100? How do they justify a price tag like this when you consider what other technology you can get for £100?! For that money you can buy a 32" TV etc.

Well it was £30 before Christmas and had club card boost (if you look at reviews) - but agree these are great toothbrushes - you WILL notice the difference!

Any £17 electric toothbrush will do the job just as well ... there's zero evidence that 'sonic' ads anything except the price.

It's like 7-blade razors ... no better than 6,5,4,3,2 blade razors.

They call it 'marketing'

Don`t forget about 1.5% cashback with quidco :smiley:

Picked up two, my current Oral B battery is running out of juice. Did notice the original post, but it wasn't linked online, and I didn't fancy a wild goose chase for it. Cheers OP.

Thanks OP

Well, if Tesco were previously selling this for £100, just goes to show how much bloody profit they were making! :neutral_face:

Thanks ordered... same one on amazon 84.00 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Philips-Sonicare-Electric-toothbrush-HealthyWhite/dp/B00Q08SQ5M/ref=sr_1_4?s=drugstore&ie=UTF8&qid=1453676186&sr=1-4&keywords=philips+sonicare+pink

Thanks OP
Ordered 2.
Heat added

The total lack of evidence that 'sonic' adds anything.

(as I said in my post, weirdly).

No, that "any £17 toothbrush will do the job".

Why expired?

Excellent price, thanks OP

an electric toothbrush is an electric toothbrush whether £20 or £200. Don't fall for the fancy names.

There's evidence that electric toothbrushes offer better performance than non-electric.

You can get a perfectly good rechargeable electric for £17.

Rocket science it ain't. Really. Shop around, you might get one cheaper.

Nice thanks, got it for the wife

So, nothing. I agree that many products are equal, and that marketing is the only difference, but you don't appear to be offering an argument. I've had cheap ones, and I've had more expensive ones, and there is a considerable difference, considering you read reviews.

Any wvhite?

I didn't say there's no difference - just zero evidence of any benefit to your teeth.

Reviews, by and large, are far from scientific. I'd want something more before spending this kind of money.

What you choose to do with yours is entirely up to you.

Thank you for posting. Ordered.

These sonic Phillips ones are really the best, tbh, I really hate Phillips stuff, it's been a pita for me. But these really do work.

Just ordered. Heat added

Crashed at checkout but I've got an order confirmation. Great! I have a HealthyWhite that died just within the 2 year guarantee - currently using a refurb one. This will be its replacement.

Well, I haven't read this entire thread but I can vouch for the health of my teeth and gums improving after switching to Sonic Toothbrushes. Over the years I've had two Ultrasonex brushes and now two Philips HealthyWhite (this will be my third).

Thought this was the updated version - still seems to be the same design as the two HealthyWhite models I had previously. I will say that I believe this model has a weakness where the button stops working properly and stays switched "on" or goes on of its own accord after extended use, happened to me and saw it mentioned in a few reviews. Luckily for me Philips replaced it weeks before the 2 year guarantee was up!

This is the newer HealthyWhite + HX8911

thanks just needed a good brush for my bf. i am sure he wont mind the pinky!

thanks OP ordered one in pink even though I'm a boy. deal too good to miss out.

I have a Sonicare tb and its amazing. Bought two (one as a spare and one for a family member) Thanks OP.

Buying a pink electric toothbrush at 5:30am. Only HUKD could sink me to such lows.

Is it possible to get small, round head replacements (for small mouths), rather than this diamond shape?

Thanks op, have ordered to get in touch with my feminine side.... I feel comfortable with my masculinity - honestly

Hold on...wasn't there a BIG hoo-Haa being made by feminists last week that girly coloured things (pink) are more expensive and therefore it's sexiest?.....where are them muppets now?

Typical women...only complain when it suits.

Brilliant find, just ordered one for my daughter :smiley:

Much prefer Philips to oral b... Had the top of range oral b 6500 and it was like a hammer drill in your mouth!

Thanks OP

Wow some people spend £200 on a toothbrush?! Yet when they open their mouth you still smell ****.

Have used both Philips so much better. Ordered

Cracking find OP. Was looking for a good deal on a Sonicare since mine broke again.

My only complaint about this brand is that it doesn't last.

Anyone knows which compatible toothbrush heads this one could use?

Amazon don't sell it.

Yay woke up to this deal this morning and suprised still in stock :smiley:

Thanks op ..heat added & ordered....

Thanks very much OP! Surprised I managed to get one but well chuffed. My old one is on its way out so I need a new one but not a new case, so this is perfect. Well... aside from the colour, but hey ho.

Is this only available in pink? Thanks

Took the plunge. My first electric toothbrush!:smile: just hope they actually get dispatched...i have a feeling they might not be able to fulfill all orders

I think that this model is a low grade Tesco-only model that Philips and Tesco agreed to set a fake RRP on. It is to trick gullible UK consumers with.

Currys do it all the time too.

Try to see through it please people

http://www.hotukdeals.com/freebies/free-sample-colgate-max-white-one-2380383 This should go perfectly with this deal

I'll back it up...

The next model up, here, is £55 sold by Amazon. If you go to Philips website and do a compare, it's much better than this 1, so £25 is probably about the right price for this 1.

No sonic can beat a 'miswak' :wink:

It may be a Tesco only product, but basic Sonicare start around £40-50 so £25 is pretty reasonable given it's national stock and not store specific

Anyone know how to get the heads on this i need at least a spare one for the wife? Tesco don't sell

Good deal and purchased!

Will any Sonicare heads fit these?

Thank you ordered. My oral b one is on its way out. So perfect timing.

Ordered, great present.

Tempted, but some pretty terrible reviews have put me off!

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Philips-HX6711-02-HealthyWhite-Rechargeable/dp/B0012NOEXI/ref=sr_1_1?s=drugstore&ie=UTF8&qid=1453716104&sr=1-1&keywords=HX6711%2F02

Ordered the £37 one as it comes with the travel case and I couldn't find a travel case under £10 on amazon. Heat!

Also just to add for anyone tempted but not sure, if you order click and collect and don't pick up within 7 days (or 14 maybe can't remember) then Tesco just refund you automatically

With tesco clubcard it costs me 26 with delivery. Thanks for good find.


Anyone knows the prices for heads?

Thanks op just ordered for wife wish they had black

Just ordered 2, thanks OP

I can live with pink and 14 quids worth of clubcard vouchers. Heat!

Hot as fok

I will reiterate what other have said for those contemplating a Philips toothbrush for the first time...
These are great brushes when they work but the longevity of them is appalling and I've found their aftercare pretty poor.
Saying that I've bought one at £25 hoping it'll last two years....

why did i just get one?


why


why

which heads are you all buying, or will the original head last as long as the brush :laughing:

OOS,
@checkout:
"Sorry, we don't have enough Philips Sonicare HealthyWhite Pink Rechargeable Toothbrush HX6761/02 items in stock right now. This item (s) has been added to your save for later basket. You can try to purchase this item again by reducing its quantity."

I like to stick with base model brauns because they're the most common which results in very affordable and very decent third party replacement heads. These sort of businesses operate in the same way as printer manufacturers; they sell the printers at very low cost and get their money back double quick by selling 'consumables' at a crazy price. I would check availability of third party heads before committing. There again, what do I know.

i think the 2 year guarantee costs an extra £9.99 ??

OOS :-(

From 2nd February 2016, we are introducing a £2 delivery charge for Click+Collect orders under £30. Click+Collect delivery will still be free for orders of £30 or more. Find out more

I just bought two so it wasnt oos

Doh - let's me add to basket fine but when I check out it just says they don't have the stock. Ah well.

About £23 too much for a toothbrush

does anyone know if the 2 year warranty is free/standard, or is there an additional cost?

says low stock but actually oos when you try to check out

£25 for a toothbrush!!!! Get real.
If you just have to have an electronic one, get a generic one for about £6 from Boyes or Wilko!!!!!

much appreciated, thanks.
il register once received

Thank You OP

I asked my dentist for advice on sonic toothbrushes.
He said "Don't bother".
Said he got more returns than any other kind.

Is the Aldi one for £17.99 a good alternative?

OOS now

You can register for stock alerts if the item decides to come back into stock ! Heat added good find OP :smiley::smiley:

Anyone had confirmation of order being despatched ?
I ordered 24 hrs ago no e mail confirming despatch yet

​i brought the generic oral b ones by an accident once and they were rubbish, really soft! So have always stuck to the genuine ones from boots, they do an offer of 4 for about 12 quid sometimes.

>>>>>
Thanks for thread update and your info..

Got one with confirmation from late order, but order from earlier purchase still not come!!! Then again
they do a lot of things back to front at TescoDirect!! ;-)

I'm sure I read somewhere that the replacement brush handles they send out are refurb items - not sure though. Didn't realise they were also guaranteed for 2 years! Sounds very generous! I got a replacement last September.

WOW!
They must be really good if folk are buying more when they keep failing.
Er....."keep failing"? Is "good" the right word? LOL :confused:

You must be a manufacturers nightmare....never having paid for anything in years as you send things back days before the warranty expires.

No wonder manufacturing in this country is on its knees. Who on earth keeps a receipt for 3 years and then returns it days before?

Er.....someone who believes a 3 year warranty lasts longer than 2 years 361 days? :confused:

thanks for the updates all just got e mail late last night
You can collect from your chosen store after 3:00pm on Tuesday, 26 January 2016
so they are despatching orders, I ordered Sunday as soon as this thread was open

I received mind this morning . Fab toothbrush and teeth feel amazing

collected. excellent electric toothbrush. Thanks again 008. cracking deal.
1 thing to bear in mind; like most electric shavers/toothbrushes etc, it comes with a european 2 pin plug thingy. So u just need to buy a 2 to 3 pin plug adaptor to charge it. Mine has some charge left, so i could use it straightaway. They are very cheap, under £1 i think. il check on CPC later.
Please buy from a reputable outlet to ensure safety tests have been done!

Did anyone get a coloured ring on the brush? It mentions it in the instructions but it's not present.

Who said anything about 'days before' or '3 years'. It's a 2 year warranty. First return was where battery failed after around 20 months, that was replaced and the replacement failed after around the same time again with same issue and was replaced. Upgraded to a Diamondclean which had issues with the power/mode button after around 12 months and this has been replaced. When paying £85 for a toothbrush it's pretty reasonable to expect it to last at least 2 years I think, or do you think this is unreasonable? Anyway even with these issues I'll stick to using Sonicare due to how well they perform and the warranty/aftercare has been good when things haven't gone so well with longevity.

Also I don't believe these are manufactured in this country either. And yes i'm sure it's customer returns that have slowed down UK manufacturing and possibly caused the financial crash too :neutral_face:

*insert fishing rod gif

This deal was a bargain for whoever got it by the way

Picked mine up today :smiley: I have a Sonicare charger/brush head UV sanitiser (does two heads at a time) that I bought from ebay a while back for around a tenner, so I have a few chargers!



I'm not really a girly-girl but the pink is growing on me :smiley:

Apparently http://www.philips.co.uk/c-p/HX6761_02/sonicare-healthywhite-rechargeable-sonic-toothbrush/overview (halfway down the page) it "gently increases power over first 14 uses to ease you into the Philips Sonicare electric toothbrush experience". Didn't know that :sunglasses:

Does anybody have any problems with the toothbrush end working it's
way off during cleaning ?

>>>>>
The Power of Pink Louise!!

Good info, had no idea and that sanitizer looks like a brilliant idea as well :smile:


>>>>>
Not yet surfer, got the top of the shop diamondclean which *very rarely* on megamouthblaster mode
needs a push back on the shaft every few weeks or so, but this one seems to be just as tight as that
one was 2+ years ago.. tend to use the sonicare with NO toothpaste through the day and only use a
no Paraben's in it paste for the evening brush :wink:

Meant to be picking mine up after 3 today but no email to say it's arrived

>>>>>
Cool, not heard about that either!

Not a lot in the brushhead differences for the price..

Got mine and the next day when I went to the dentist both her and my hygienist told me that the toothbrushes with small round heads like Oral b ones are better.

Well I still like my new sonicare.

Its to do with the rotating-oscillating action not the size of the head. Since purchasing this product I have read numerous times than sonic technology is inferior, having said that however the brush certainly seems to do the job.

There's no ring in the images on Tesco's site but it does mention it in the instructions.

I assume that these models are specific to certain stores? I think Target in the US get customised ones. Maybe these models don't have/need the ring and they haven't bothered changing the manual.

I thought they might be rubber damping rings but apparently they are just coloured plastic for identification purposes.

You get coloured rings if you buy twin packs of Sonicares. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sonicare-Flexcare-toothbrush-replacement-coloured/dp/B004M9VH3E They don't affect the usage of the brush in any way.

I think the jury is out - I have asked my dentist explicitly which one he recommends and he was very neutral - he said, "they both do a good job" and didn't seem to want to elaborate.

Maybe it depends on what your dentist is selling/or what his/her personal opinion is.

My brother uses Oral-B and loves his, but hasn't tried Sonicare. I love Sonicare and have only tried a bottom of the range Oral-B rechargeable that definitely didn't improve my tooth and gum health!! but it could be on a par with the cheap, and badly reviewed PowerUp Sonicares which are unpowered and heavy. Not a good introduction to the Oral-B line for me, anyway.

A round brush with rotating action seems more logical since periodontal pockets have a U shape . That's the motion I would assume brings out more plaque than the Sonicare, which just vibrate up and down (when held horizontally).

Re periodontal pockets, here is a clinical study I found online in favour of Sonicare http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9487838 (quite an old post though)
And in favour of Oral-B (or "rotating oscillating brushes" at least) http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15190692

It is quite hard to find neutral studies (not sponsored by one or the other) so I would tend to think that both are good. Just my experience of a bottom of the range Oral-B oscillating brush was very bad (I got an extraction and a few fillings during my time using one!!). But I can only fairly judge both brands by testing models in a similar price bracket.

Weirdly enough, Oral-B do have a sonic brush in their range, not sure what that could mean! http://www.amazon.co.uk/Braun-Oral-B-Pulsonic-Rechargeable-Toothbrush/dp/B003U9V7LE

They also make this one....Vitality

oral b pro 3000 is £30 on amazon deal of day. I ordered this and opened the box at the top only havent even unpacked anything. do you think tesco would give me a refund? so i could get the oral b brush?

Just a belated thank you for this post - forgot I had ordered it and finally got round to collecting!

Where's everyone getting their heads from?

right I bought this and got round to unboxing it 2 weeks ago. been using once some days and twice others and was working fine but now today when i switch it on it vibrates & the head is just slipping off :disappointed:
when i got it the instructions spoke of a colored ring that goes between the head & the handle to identify it yours but i didnt find such ring. wasn't really worried as worked fine but now all of a sudden head slipping off.
anyone any ideas?
this is my first electric toothbrush
