Oral‑B Toothbrush, Pro 1000 Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush, Black, 1 Brush Head, for Adults & Kids 3+

This Oral B Pro 1000 toothbrush works just great. It has three speed levels. I use the fastest oscillation level -- this may be too strong for some of you -- but it's great for me. Every so often, however, my teeth and gums are a bit sensitive. When this occurs, the slower toothbrush speed is appreciated since the toothbrush is more gentle at the slower speeds. I also like that it has a small blinking light while it's charging. The base model Oral B toothbrush does not. I also like that I can use my generic toothbrush heads from Amazon.com. I have a lot of them. This Oral B Pro 1000 toothbrush device still uses the original Oral B toothbrush heads. In contrast, the more expensive upscale Oral B IO models use a completely different toothbrush head. That means you have to buy the more expensive IO toothbrush heads for the IO models. I don't want to sound too cynical, but I feel it's just another way for Oral B to make more money -- the way Apple forces you to get new chargers and replace as much as possible with every new iPhone you purchase. Newer doesn't always mean better. Sometimes, it just means more expensive. But not for this basic, original, but highly efficient model. The Oral B Pro 1000 is a very good efficient toothbrush.

Boy my teeth feel clean after using this! I had been using the non-rechargablr battery Oral B which I liked, but this is really superior, the spin is much more powerful. The grip could be better, but no stars off for that, and after one week's use; the battery did not last a week, but I use it more than 2 times a day, longer than 2 minutes. It takes almost 24 hours to charge, but really that's not an issue, it just sits on the charger until it's ready which takes no effort. I'm very glad you got this.
