No heat from me, i bought one of these three months ago, no longer works, piece of junk, and i don't have the receipt so can't take it back, in the bin and in future i will get a better brand named one than this, and i like Lidl stuff, but this is quite clearly inferior quality electric toothbrush.
I got one of these a few years ago and after about a week's ownership, I left it in a Dublin hotel room by accident when away for work. It was ok, but not a patch on an Oral B set up costing 5 times the price (understandably). Better than manual brushing i'd guess.

Electric brushing is only better than manual brushing when taking 'bad technique' into account (which a lot of people have). The advantage of electric brushing is that it takes a lot of the work out for you, so if you are prone to missing some plaque when you brush manually an electric brush helps alleviate this.
If you brush 'properly' (not something most people do) with a manual brush it is as effective as an electric at removing plaque.
There is however no proof that removing this extra bit of plaque contributes to long term health of the teeth an gums (although it might, if a proper study on it was done)
Looked all this up as I often wondered how much of electric toothbrushes were industry pushing a more expensive product, and how much they were actually better (much like 'safety razors'). I also much prefer a manual brush, especially as you can do your tongue effectively as well.
The most astute piece of sage advice on a toothbrush is "The best brush is the one that you will use"

Works great, the only let down for me was it has an eu 2 pin plug

I think that's for it to charge off a bathroom shaver-style socket?

I have posted at length on here how poor the Lidl toothebrush was compared to my 15 or more year old Oral-B. After about a year of using the Lidl I got gum disease for the first time. Prior to that my teeth began to yellow and the tartar was never adequately removed. I went back to my ancient Oral-B that, as old as it was, has more power and cleans my teeth better.
IMPO you are better off waiting for a deal on an Oral-B.

If you bought on a credit card you don't need a receipt with lidl. Had the same issue with a microwave and they gave me a new one. Give their CS a ring. Very helpful.
