It's a shame that it requires around 15 hours to fully charge to get only 15 minutes of use. On the plus side, it seems like the rechargeable batteries can be easily replaced when they die

£24 here. There really no limit how low you can go. Just at the cost of some functions or gimicks

I have this water flossier . I charge it once per month and use it daily, my wife also uses it. It comes with 2 heads that don't wear out. The only trouble is that there is no fully charged indicator. I also put watered down mouthwash in it and have had no issues. Other than that its fantastic. I would 100% advise anyone to get a water flossier, its quite amazing what comes out of your teeth / gums. Especially after eating Nuts :smile:

I have this unit for about 5 years. It's very good and strong a bargain at this price. The batteries have died a month ago and special replacement batteries are required but they cost only £14 for two. Overall a good investment and so far outlasted the waterpik I once had.

To those that already own one of these, is this as effective as manually flossing?
Thanks

From a friend who's a dentist: NO, manual flossing + interdental brushes are the way to go, however the water flosser is "BETTER THAN NOTHING".

My dentist recommended TeePee interdental brushes. I use various different sizes and have never looked back. They will remove a lot of stuff that a water flosser will leave behind. They also cost a fraction of this. I used a Braun water flosser years ago - waste of time.

Absolutely! TeePee are the ones his practice recommends too and he says he can really tell the difference in oral health when people use interdental brushes vs people who don't.
For anyone else reading, yes TeePees may be fiddly, but they make a big difference to your teeth and gums in the long term! (& avoiding unpleasant and expensive dental procedures!)

This is more efficient, will clean deeper and is easier than manual flossing. Also you should not be able to damage your gums, although Darwinism will find someone, I'm sure . No strings to break, no more sore fingers.

Showing at £54.53 now shame I'd have bought one at £35 already blew through one in under 18 months compared to the cheaper Amazon ones which I also bought this one's a lot more powerful but it cannot withstand the long-term humidity of a bathroom and eventually rusts in the battery compartment and is not usable, the cheaper ones are actual tosh though they couldn't remove food in-between teeth so it's a trade off that's worth it for one that actually cleans even if it doesn't live as long.

Got one. But not exactly what I expected. But better than not.
