"i bought this in the sale at £54 it was a no brainier for me to purchase at such a good price and i haven’t been disappointed"

"the extra connectivity timer and brush modes which add to the price are simply unnecessary"

"the negative the battery life is pretty poor"

"other 3 modes is quite useless as well"

"the toothbrush itself works well enough but the plethora of different heads is probably a pointless and confusing gimmick and perhaps the difference in performance between them is minimal and bare contributes to the claimed different 'focus' goals"

"and of course everybody will know that you are brushing your teeth because its really noisy"

"i occasionally flit back to a conventional toothbrush and the difference is ever so noticeable"

"when using it beeps and the motor pulses every so often"

"however and this is why only 3 stars battery life is very poor and even worse is the time it takes to recharge it"

"i have a partial upper plate that i need to clean plus a crown so i guess i just have to take time over my teeth and gums"

"great toothbrush charge time still ridiculous though"

"and the most important thing health i used to go to the dentist hygenist to remove "scale" or "stones" not sure of the correct word every 3 months"

"however the main issue is the battery life"

"please don't look at the rrp price of this brush it is very misleading !"

"from the first oral b brush to this much more current model they seem to have made little progress with battery technology"

"i find both the small smartguide and the oral b app are pretty useless"

"also the metal part the individual toothbrush slots over has gone rusty see pictures i've had a few electric toothbrushes my last one a philips sonicare"

"this is the most expensive disposable toothbrush mankind has ever seen"

"this obviously varies according to usage but does seem rather inconvenient at times"

"cheap load of rubbish backed up by 1000s of adverts on tv and fake dentists making out its brilliant"

"i wish it had some curves for an easier grip as its bottom heavy and does slip through my hand a little bit!"

"on touch the base is less premium as it's a mix of both rubber and gloss plastic"

"apart from the battery life and all the other unnecessary gimmicks that come with the brush it does a pretty decent job of cleaning if only for the first brush after a 24 hour charge which still hasn't charged the battery to full capacity"

"thought i was getting a great deal when i bought this in the black friday deals but regret buying it"

"when it works it is good but i see from other reviews that other customers have had the same problem"

"this toothbrush was a replacement for a very long lived previous one and is slightly bulkier but i guess it has a longer lasting battery and the blue tooth wireless stuff as well as more programs so maybe not a problem"

"the brush’s ability to communicate with the phone app is very haphazard the brush “sync” mode switches off before the brush has synched with the phone so you’ll have to keep pressing the “mode” button until it sync’s"

"this one that i have bought from amazon isn't much better than the one i have replaced battery is only lasting for 2 days and wont charge up fully no matter how long you leave it on charge"

"i had no problems with this until around the beginning of december 2019 i purchased in august i noticed that i would be brishing my teeth and rather than the 1 light flashing warning i was used to seeing the toothbrush would just stop working and the 3 lights would go orange and it would stop working"

"shameful in this day and age to create such unnecessary waste"

"it's a definite upgrade to my old and very basic oral b toothbrush the 3d action the first time i used it made me think i was going to brush my teeth clean off my face but it did a great job and i'm accustomed to it now"

"the biggest problem is that the 40 minutes of use that it promises you requires 24 hours of charging time!"

"he hasn't used the other little gadget that's comes with it"

"the biggest negative however is the time it takes to fully charge approx 36 hours and the length of time the charge holds before needing to be recharged approx 5 days "

"other than my device going faulty i cannot recommend the device more the only thing i would recommend is perhaps go for the none bluetooth version which is cheaper as i don't actually use it more than once or twice a month unless you can get this one for a good deal i paid £79 for mine back in august "

"maybe i'm just too forgetful"

"buy a cheaper model and don't waste your money on this"

"being made of cheap flimsy plastic is not exactly what i would regard as a proper decent match for a premium product"

"the cleaning is very harsh gum bleeding and extra sensitivity teeth guarantee with this thing and why the phone app use your phone in the bathroom am i the only person who can see the idiotic purpose of the implementation"

"when you press too hard it lights up red"

"the brush speed is slow and the force is weak and so a brush takes forever and the toothpaste starts to drip down my hand and the big handle making it all slippery"

"package wasn't damaged just a screen means someone did put it in knowing it was broken"

"avoid at all costs"

"it arrived as expected and well packed knowing it was not previously used or refurbished"

"don’t waste money for something that is not usefull"

"i've paired it with the app on my phone and that gives me more details if i use it when brushing like for how long i've brushed with too much pressure and getting prompted to brush tongue"

"the brush speed is slow and the force is weak and so a brush takes forever and the toothpaste starts to drip down my hand and the big handle making it all slippery"

"you can easily turn the bluetooth off on your oral b smart series 6000 6500 by following the simple steps below: a please press the on off button and the mode button simultaneously for 3 seconds to disable the interfaces completely make sure it is 3 seconds "

"and whilst the included timer has never lost its link to the toothbrush i found the connectivity to my phone or my tablet was not that reliable"

"not only my teeth are whiter but also my gums do not bleed so much anymore"

"my only issue is the device is big and not ideal for a child’s hands but otherwise i can’t fault this item which i highly recommend"

"however disappointed that they are still manufactured with the rubber type panel running down the front of the toothbrush no doubt for better grip as from our experience with all previous oral b toothbrushes the rubber eventually stretches and splits and becomes very unsightly"

"i've purchased this particular oral b electric toothbrush for my missus after her previous failed to work"

"the holes on the side of the brush leaks and makes for a very messy affair"

"this toothbrush comes with a lot of gadgets and whilst there is nothing fundamentally wrong with the product this "smartseries" toothbrush is just not worth the price"

"like it says in the manual i had some bleeding for a few days but that's all"

"9 months in and this no longer holds power correctly despite being on constant charge it is underpowered and doesn’t last more then one & a half brushes"

"i wasn't sold on the so called smart features but on the basis of being able to use a toothbrush device that i can setup and use for my teeth with out the worries of brushing hard and causing myself infections but alas this is worse"

"it came with a 2 pin plug and no adaptor for uk sockets"

"this oral b just doesn't compare at all: it's slow incredibly noisy and doesn't clean anything like as well as the philips"

"after the first brush the brush will over the course of about 3 cleans gradually lose power at a steady and noticeable rate whilst brushing"

"abysmal battery life"

"the app and the smiley face timer thing are super unnecessary in my opinion"

"i haven't been able to work out how to use the smart guide and app regarding logging your flossing and rinsing"

"the brush speed is slow and the force is weak and so a brush takes forever and the toothpaste starts to drip down my hand and the big handle making it all slippery"

"the first one i bought from boots and has lasted 4 years until the battery had to be charged every time it was used"

"overly chunky and bulky"

"then i noticed a drop in battery performance: i had to leave it on charge for 24 hours that got me about four 2 minute brushes at a push"

"would not buy a toothbrush with bluetooth again as the added benefits are somewhat wasted in a toothbrush"

"the only reason i have replaced my old oral b triumph toothbrush is because the rubber has become discoloured and peeled off from the back"

"too late to return item so very disappointed considering the price and brand"

"the bluetooth timer was an unwanted extra that i never envisioned using it would have been nice to permanently switch it off on the toothbrush or at least default to offer rather than on"

"i’d suggest don’t bother with the bluetooth version i think it drains the battery"

"don't listen to the negative people complaining about the battery"

"my husband bought this and we are appalled at the packaging and amount of useless plastic bits that come with this toothbrush"

"it keeps missing days of brushed activity when i try to sync with my phone it sync some days but skip some"

"ours must have been slowly declining as i can really tell the difference and my teeth feel so much cleaner"

"the proprietary charger which still in this day and age needs a shaver socket or adapter is a pain"

"so much waste"

"there are other modes including deep clean polish tongue and gums"

"but would not buy it again"

"on touch the base is less premium as it's a mix of both rubber and gloss plastic"

"i have used it for a couple of months when all of a sudden it decided that it had not spent the night charging but was completely dead"

"as soon as it drops to 2 or less bars you do notice a decrease in power therefore it's not brushing as effectively"

"the timer is too short and you can't switch it off"

"i wasn't sold on the so called smart features but on the basis of being able to use a toothbrush device that i can setup and use for my teeth with out the worries of brushing hard and causing myself infections but alas this is worse"

"takes about 24hrs to charge from near empty"

"the product is great however after buying this i think we might not need this expensive one"

"i just gave up and bought another sonicare and started to see results within a week"

"this brush is noisy also with a very poor battery life"

"i find both the small smartguide and the oral b app are pretty useless"

"all the different cleaning heads bluetooth connection with app small brushing monitor a travel case and of course the charging docking station all of it only at the start "

"the bluetooth connectivity is powerful your phone can be 10 feet away from the toothbrush which is maybe why the battery does not last long?"

"this one that i have bought from amazon isn't much better than the one i have replaced battery is only lasting for 2 days and wont charge up fully no matter how long you leave it on charge"

"it will not re charge"

"pausing after each quadrant of the month have disappeared"

"difficult to change settings which is very annoying you have to press a button close to the power button which often you turn it off or try to turn it off and press the cycle mode button arrgh!"

"i have had this for about 4 months now and although the toothbrush is excellent the stated 10 day charge time is a joke i only get 6 days after a full 24 hour charge i am the sole user brushing twice a day !"

"in my opinion save your money and get a cheaper oral b without the pointless bluetooth and app"

"there are no excuses and you will not lack accessories for your dreams they look fulfilled with good breath"

"i hope that this one lasts a little longer than a couple of years as they aren't cheap and as far as i can see they are not recyclable"

"i can't comment on performance as i returned mine because the round brush head felt too bulky in my mouth i also thought it was very noisy compared to others i've used and initially thought i had received a faulty unit but a quick google search disproved that they all sound the same apparentlty"

"pressing down hard feels like i would hurt my teeth!"

"there are 2 people using the toothbrush so it is not having excessive use and does not equate with manufacturer's claim that the charge lasts 14 days"

"if you are like me and you are ready to pay more just to get the app and bluethoot just don’t!"

"i’m hoping i will be able to get a replacement under warranty"

"this isn't an issue for me personally because i don't think i'll use it but the instructions do not instruct on this"

"they can't be wrong can they?"

"i'm probs not using it correctly as there are lots of bits and i haven't checked everything out yet but i'm really pleased with it and am a total convert to electric toothbrush now as used others in the past but wasn't impressed and went back to manual"

"not enough time in the day"

"combining this brush with the crossaction head and an orabrush tongue cleaner has given my mouth an overall feeling of cleanliness that i've never previously experienced"

"this was a great waste of money: i used it for three months or so over which time i had horrible stain and tartar build up and my teeth looked awful"

"this one doesn’t do that"

"pressing down hard feels like i would hurt my teeth!"

"the battery lasts a long time but equally takes a very long time to recharge"

"this oral b just doesn't compare at all: it's slow incredibly noisy and doesn't clean anything like as well as the philips"

"if it wasn't black friday i would have just gone for the normal basic version and been equally happy as all the accessories just sit in a drawer and i have no desire to talk to my toothbrush via bluetooth!"

"in conclusion i feel slightly cheated as it is surely the brush head that cleans the teeth so a cheaper model would be just as good and to add insult to injury the day after i received and unpacked my 6000 amazon reduced the price"

"i can't comment on performance as i returned mine because the round brush head felt too bulky in my mouth i also thought it was very noisy compared to others i've used and initially thought i had received a faulty unit but a quick google search disproved that they all sound the same apparentlty"

"a negative but not enough to downgrade it is that the charging cable is fixed to the base and is not long enough to reach the socket above the bathroom mirror"

"there's a leaflet provided which shows which head does what but for some reason i just can't remember!"

"the bad the only bad thing that might be related with my phone but should be dealt by the app is disconnections which result in the app thinks i stopped brushing while i actaully still am 2 options for oral b could be a"

"please can the manufacturer contact me or i will be forced to make a complaint to amazon directly"

"i have bought an expensive toothbrush that i can no longer use"

"i'm pretty disappointed to be honest"

"did not see the point in installing the app so can't comment on that"

"bluetooth would cut off with the app and small monitor on a constant basis"

"the toothbrush has been replaced with something different the one i had was black this is white and it is not the same one "

"the bluetooth connectivity and separate clock with indicator are novel but not essential neither is the smartphone app"

"thought this newer better more expensive version would be a brilliant buy but so far its good but not worth the money"

"too much technology for such a simple operation"

"wish i had paid more and replaced with the model we had"

"the brush wont connect so completely useless"

"the brush speed is slow and the force is weak and so a brush takes forever and the toothpaste starts to drip down my hand and the big handle making it all slippery"

"however it does not avoid the massive manual in so many languages it is mind boggling all for a few pages of english"

"also all of the other bells and whistles are nice but not needed"

"up until last week the brush worked flawlessly before breaking randomly overnight it wouldn't turn on so i thought the battery was dead but after placing it on the charging pad it wouldn't charge and the bluetooth lights would just flash i ended up having to get a replacement sent out to me and amazon deserve a big thank you as after sending the first email to them with a video i had a response in 10mins with a message saying they had already dispatched me another great customer service from amazon"

"the brush’s ability to communicate with the phone app is very haphazard the brush “sync” mode switches off before the brush has synched with the phone so you’ll have to keep pressing the “mode” button until it sync’s"

"but i always had an irregular brushing program"

"if you want an electric toothbrush just stick to the cheap basic version you won't miss a thing"

"maybe it’s a one off as our previous version which was much like was fine for years until the battery went but this is already on its way out"

"also the battery charge even on a new brush does not last as long as they claim"

"i never used the app either"

"this is my second braun oral b pro 6000 electric toothbrush as the previous one was left missing during a holiday"

"it now charges in a spare room away from all sky boxes!"

"i no longer struggle with sensitive teeth and i am really happy i was able to change my ways and give this a try"

"i've always brushed for 2 minutes in the past but i had no particular routine"

"it has the same functionality so there was no great learning curve and most of the time it's a simple of case of applying toothpaste and pressing the 'go' button making sure the head of the toothbrush is in your mouth unless you want to redecorate your bathroom"

"i can't comment on performance as i returned mine because the round brush head felt too bulky in my mouth i also thought it was very noisy compared to others i've used and initially thought i had received a faulty unit but a quick google search disproved that they all sound the same apparentlty"

"this was a great waste of money: i used it for three months or so over which time i had horrible stain and tartar build up and my teeth looked awful"

"my partner has the 9000 model but when i borrow it i find the on off switch to be in a really difficult place so i was glad to find this older model at an absolute bargain price on black friday"

"you’ll end up keeping it on deep clean and never checking the app"

"our previous toothbrush which was the model down from this one started being glitchy after about 2"

"haven't had one before"

"i am very disappointed with this model"

"only issue is that there is not battery light like the other brushes available and that is probably the main difference for the lower price"

"i actually prefer this brush to my older more sleeker designed lighter and more expensive bush"

"the only disadvantage if it can be called one is that the appliance needs to be charged weekly"

"this electric toothbrush is very noisy"

"my wife and i was advised by our dentist to purchase this toothbrush as it cleans better than a manual brush she was right after 1 week of use we have noticed the difference she also advised us not to buy the very expensive ones the £40 one's do the same job used for 5 days for 2 minute's the brush as a 2 minute timer fitted before it needed charging"

"i had the more expensive one but the charging base stopped working"

"last one died of old age well had it so long so treated myself to a new one!"

"waste of money"

"if i was being really picky i would say that the design of the handle could be improved as it's dimpled and catches toothpaste residue which is then difficult to remove but that would be really picky as this is a really good toothbrush other than that"

"waste of time"

"i don't want to give a bad review but this was very very disappointing n i won't be buying another one"

"i have made things even easier for myself by accidentally throwing away the charger so i had to buy a second toothbrush in order to be able to charge the first and now i always have a fully charged toothbrush ready to go for when the current one runs out it's very annoying to start brushing your teeth only for the brush to die within a few seconds because electric brushes are rubbish if you try to use them manually "

"cleans well and easy to use however the battery life could be better"

"toothbrush just dies mid brush"

"battery charge doesn't last long"

"what a complete waste of time i bought it in good faith and in less than a week it broke the bottom fell out of it"

"i guess these are entry models but they are simply not powerful enough and to have to charge after every brush is no good really disappointed and would have expected much better from oral b"

"the electric toothbrush it replaced a braun kept its charge for as long as 3 4 weeks it could take it away with me on a forthnight's holiday having charged it before hand knowing that it would last for the duration of the holiday this toothbrush however is a real disappointment i thought it was going to be just as reliable and so bought set of replacement heads!"

"the battery life on this unit is bloody awful"

"good powerful brush pity it doesn't have a charging battery life light"

"this one cost £20 gives me a miserable 2 3 days after charging before the speed drops noticeably has no charging light and a more basic timer 2mins only "

"but now the real disappointments"

"this product was awful the battery life is absolutely appalling and would barely last 4 uses in my first week of using it and in the second week i can't even get two uses out of it before it dies!"

"don't forget to turn the tap off while cleaning teeth just a waste of water"

"if so it is totally annoying"

"doesnt work"

"good starting point for a cheap electric toothbrush"

"this my 3rd oral b tooth brush and are top quality can't fault it highly recommend value for money my last one was the same model and served very well for 5 years just one little issue was it was on prime but be a were it may not come on the same day and come by hermes"

"small issue the charger i got was european not british"

"easy to use lasts a good time before needing rechargef"

"after two minutes the electric motor stutters for a few minutes to indicate that you have cleaned your teeth for the recommended time which is a really good feature for the price"

"it doesnt have the same cleaning effect as previous and even when fully charged it still feels flat"

"but what to buy the problem seems to be across the board and we shouldn't have to keep returning them and getting the same brushagain"

"on time the recharging gets slower"

"it lasts quite a while between charges and i would say you get approximately over a weeks worth of brushing and then it needs charging as it start to go pretty slow but not stopped"

"when plugged in there is no indication that it had charged because the green light doesn’t work"

"the battery life is rubbish doesn't last a week before needing charging and water leaks into the unit causing the product to smell foul"

"one thing that annoys me is that there is no battery indicator on the brush or the stand giving me no idea when it is charging"

"its cheap and you get what you pay for but avoid this at all costs"

"very dissappointing"

"but one annoying thing is that it does not have a battery light so you can't tell when it is getting low or that you can check it is charging"

"need a electric toothbrush as my old oral b died as the battery doesnt last long so i went shopping on amazon looked at a few and i choose this one because of price didnt know what to expect as there was so many"

"nothing wrong with this toothbrush does the trick a lot of that down to the head anyway regret not getting one with the light indicating low battery charged"

"my old electric toothbrush was losing power and so bought this new one"

"nice chunky rubber no slip grip handle with a powerful motor i’m very pleased with it"

"this is my 2nd late model with switch related problems"

"i don't mind the lack of a red light showing battery discharged nearly discharged"

"i'm not reccomending as it died way too quickly for my liking"

"virtually impossible to charge and when it is charged the battery life and brushing strength is weak"

"during the last 3 months i've had to use a manual toothbrush most days as it's utterly useless"

"why are they getting worse?"

"purchased this to replace my old slow electric toothbrush but this one even after charging for hours slows down the second it touches my teeth!"

"biggest drawback here is that unlike my previous toothbrushes the battery life on this is significantly less"

"it's supposed to be that you spend 30 seconds on each quarter of your mouth"

"never downsize"

"it was a bargin price being almost half the price of the same item in the large supermarkets"

"my old brush failed after eight years very pleased with new brush fast delivery charged and running only negative was the day after receiving the price dropped and free postage"

"it is much slower therefore not giving efficient clean"

"my old model had a dead battery and an irritating charging indicator that was never accurate and flashed throughout the night which was very irritating"

"clearly a design flaw or faulty batch avoid"

"the first cost £20 lasted 10 years lasted 2 4 weeks between charges had a 4x30 second timer and a simple red green battery light"

"it tends to slow up after the second brush following a charge then just gets worse"

"very disappointed as the brush worked well until it broke down!"

"however after a couple of days of superior dental hygiene on the factory charge the battery inevitably died"

"the toothbrush cut out after under 2 months and hasn't started since"

"this my 3rd oral b tooth brush and are top quality can't fault it highly recommend value for money my last one was the same model and served very well for 5 years just one little issue was it was on prime but be a were it may not come on the same day and come by hermes"

"it is bigger and feels slightly cumbersome and i don’t feel it cleans my teeth as good"

"spare brush head with it"

"bought this as a present for my partner to bring him into the electric toothbrush world and he’s not impressed the battery life is absolutely rubbish"

"my biggest issue is that this doesn't seem to have the vim and vigour of my last toothbrush a braun "

"it's also extremely noisy and sounds quite rattley when being used"

"having said that it's way better than a manual toothbrush for removing plaque and not very expensive"

"i've dropped one star as with this model there is no battery indicator so it just stops unexpectantly which is annoying"

"i have made things even easier for myself by accidentally throwing away the charger so i had to buy a second toothbrush in order to be able to charge the first and now i always have a fully charged toothbrush ready to go for when the current one runs out it's very annoying to start brushing your teeth only for the brush to die within a few seconds because electric brushes are rubbish if you try to use them manually "

"really disappointed with this products i have the older braun toothbrush and i am in love with that"

"wrong plug included & arrived as pink toothbrush despite ordering blue so my son refused to use it"

"this one dies after 3 5 uses which means i have to bring a charger when traveling even on short trips"

"i didn't like these at first"

"i have had several of these electric toothbrushes i would never go back to using an ordinary toothbrush because they leave all sorts of things in your mouth like plaque which causes problems"

"can't seem to get more than a days charge out of it before it starts feeling underpowered"

"with my old one it had a battery led indicator as i dont really leave the toothbrush on charge all the time as my bathroom doesnt have a shaver socket"

"battery life is completely rubbish"

"threw it in the rubbish"

"minor problem is that i ordered a pink one and received a blue one instead but i’m not too worried about that"

"this product was awful the battery life is absolutely appalling and would barely last 4 uses in my first week of using it and in the second week i can't even get two uses out of it before it dies!"

"the second cost £40 lasted two years and 1 2 weeks between charges and had lots of leds that seemed totally random"

"i shall be sending it back"

"totally useless"

"the battery life is rubbish doesn't last a week before needing charging and water leaks into the unit causing the product to smell foul"

"i have tried cleaning it with a manual toothbrush but the black mould becomes very ingrained and naturally i don't want that going near my mouth twice a day"

"i bought this as my 10 year old braun toothbrush eventually would not turn off"

"i had to write this review to counteract all those reviews which complain about the toothbrush stuttering starting and stopping"

"having said that it's way better than a manual toothbrush for removing plaque and not very expensive"

"like is rotten inside"

"before this it stutters briefly every 30 seconds to remind you to move on to the next quadrant of your mouth"

"the alarm is like a small vibration so you know you have brushed for the full recommend time great little feature!"

"this one cost £20 gives me a miserable 2 3 days after charging before the speed drops noticeably has no charging light and a more basic timer 2mins only "

"poor battery life of 2 to 3 day max and i mean max and it seams very low on spin power"

"perhaps go for a higher spec one or get one from the supermarket they're eadier to return if like this one the charge is faulty"

"the electric toothbrush it replaced a braun kept its charge for as long as 3 4 weeks it could take it away with me on a forthnight's holiday having charged it before hand knowing that it would last for the duration of the holiday this toothbrush however is a real disappointment i thought it was going to be just as reliable and so bought set of replacement heads!"

"poor battery life of 2 to 3 day max and i mean max and it seams very low on spin power"

"toothbrush in itself is fine but the battery life is shocking"

"my only grumble is the cable is pretty short so needs to be kept near the plug"

"this one has lasted the unacceptable time of only 3 months before stopping working"

"refund was given but definitely wouldn’t recommend"

"massive disappointment"

"the toothbrush has a nice grip and doesnt feel to big it has the vibrating function to let you know how long you have been brushing one area"

"lasted about 6 months now it stays on for about a minute after about 2hrs charge"

"only disappointment is no warning light for when battery running low"

"okay but when i put oral b dual clean heads on which are supposed to fit it vibrates a lot more than the previous aa battery version i used to have"

"there is also no need to pay silly prices for brushes with many additional mostly useless 'features' such as ability to connect to a phone to keep brushing records"

"the battery life is rubbish doesn't last a week before needing charging and water leaks into the unit causing the product to smell foul"

"the only negative thing with this model is when the battery goes it goes instantly"

"this item was delivered towards the end of may 2019 and within a few weeks a problem started with it retaining its charge!"

"very disappointed with this product i think it could be faulty"

"it's timer system is annoying as well"

"i returned it after 2 weeks as it stopped working"

"no not even that but a ridiculous and antiquated uk 2 pin plug typically used for a shaver over your mirror!"

"had to return the first one as the battery didn’t charge"

"battery is totally unfit for purpose are the firm not listening to customers"

"the battery life is poorer approx 1 week compared to other oral b toothbrushes up to 2weeks which is inconvenient when traveling for more than a week"

"perhaps go for a higher spec one or get one from the supermarket they're eadier to return if like this one the charge is faulty"

"this one cost £20 gives me a miserable 2 3 days after charging before the speed drops noticeably has no charging light and a more basic timer 2mins only "

"hate this toothbrush with a passion"

"still not working"

"i bought this as my 10 year old braun toothbrush eventually would not turn off"

"battery life is not great"

"i have had several of these electric toothbrushes i would never go back to using an ordinary toothbrush because they leave all sorts of things in your mouth like plaque which causes problems"

"bought for my autistic son who has sensory issues so teeth brushing is difficult"

"what a mistake!"

"struggles when pressed into the teeth"

"it was just as cheap to order another brush with charger as to order a charger only"

"the older model was a little more advanced and had the charging and charge complete indicator which this one is missing"

"i may have received a faulty one as well however the battery life lasts approx two cleans before needing a recharge"

"the lack of a green light to indicate charging is more of an problem especially on the first 16 hour charge"

"unlike my previous 2 oral b toothbrushes i found this one poor"

"update: returning as too often cuts out"

"i didn't bother trying to get in touch as i don't want excuses"

"avoid as they say buy cheap buy twice"

"great brush and love tje 30 second inteval buzz but does not lastonger tjan 3 or 4 days on charge"

"i wouldn’t but this model again i’d stick to the pro 3d which is the same price"

"she probably doesn't use it that often cause she's a lazy one who doesn't brush her teeth"

"can't complain for the price"

"small issue the charger i got was european not british"

"daughter very pleased with this brush encouraging her to clean her teeth for the full 2 minutes"

"it does the job your teeth feel clean and not sure if more expensive ones will do any better but have not tried those yet"

"only downside is battery doesn't last very long and there's no indicator light to show when battery is low or when its fully charged"

"great replacement after more costly oral b so good to have an electric brush back after using a manual for a week once you use an electric toothbrush manuals just don’t come close!"

"secondly it pulses every 30 seconds then pulses even longer at the end of two minutes which is pretty annoying"

"nice chunky rubber no slip grip handle with a powerful motor i’m very pleased with it"

"so the toothbrush has never worked well but i'm apparently unable to get a replacement because i bought it and my daughter wasn't at home for me to deal with it"

"the battery life is rubbish doesn't last a week before needing charging and water leaks into the unit causing the product to smell foul"

"was a bit disappointed but it was charged so i could use it straight away"

"bought for my daughter so i haven't used it"

"bought this simply because the cheapest i could find never seem to last very long and doesn't appear to stop my dentist finding work"

"at this time about six weeks after purchase i have to charge it up every day as it simply does not hold its charge"

"this brush is fine though there is no charging indicator"

"don't know if it's a faulty charger or brush"

"the powers a little less than the others i have but ordered at night when my daughters broke and was here for the next morning and it was cheap enough so defo worth the money and i would recommend"

"contacted manufacturer and even though it has a warranty they won't swap it"

"my old model had a dead battery and an irritating charging indicator that was never accurate and flashed throughout the night which was very irritating"

"the battery life is so poor i cannot believe this is a braun product"

"i have just received the oral b tooth brush i bought my first one about 5 years ago and only changed it because the handle was stained "

"the quality isn't great and i find it quite sore when it brushes my teeth"

"my old model had a dead battery and an irritating charging indicator that was never accurate and flashed throughout the night which was very irritating"

"if i was being really picky i would say that the design of the handle could be improved as it's dimpled and catches toothpaste residue which is then difficult to remove but that would be really picky as this is a really good toothbrush other than that"

"leave it on the charger though and you won’t have any problems"

"it’s battery life is very poor compared to previous braun’s"

"my old non branded lidl toothbrush took its last dying breath the other day after a good 3 years together"

"not greatly happy with this product the strength is not good any pressure added when cleaning brush stops probably best paying a little more"

"i've dropped one star as with this model there is no battery indicator so it just stops unexpectantly which is annoying"

"i find this annoying and it cannot be turned off but some people may find it useful"

"replaced by amazon without issue then the replacement did the same thing after a couple of weeks"

"i wouldn't have bought this if i could have just replaced my battery oral b with the same version but as they say that's progress!"

"it does the job your teeth feel clean and not sure if more expensive ones will do any better but have not tried those yet"

"this one doesn’t have a indicator to tell you when it needs charging or to let you know when it’s charging bit annoying if you think it’s on charge but it’s not quite especially when the charging time is long"

"i'm a bit mystified about having to 'grade' the battery life as there is no battery"

"also the design of the grip has little tiny holes on which if you keep your toothbrush in a damp environment eg a bathroom!"

"last one died of old age well had it so long so treated myself to a new one!"

"sets off like a trooper but after a day it slows down"

"it cuts out momentarily midway every time i use it i will give it a week and if it doesn't sort itself i will return it"

"obviously no shelf life"

"might not trust it's reliability if i was away without the charger"

"it does not brush as well as my previous one and the battery doesn't last as long"

"i don’t have shaver sockets"

"they did it got into every nook and cranny and they felt so clean also it helped the gums if your like me i brush too"

"ok does the job but battery life stinks only lasts 4days!"

"the only difference is the timer as her previous one was the child's version it beeped after two minutes this one beeps every 30 seconds"

"this was great whilst it lasted but after 14 months it just stopped"

"but what to buy the problem seems to be across the board and we shouldn't have to keep returning them and getting the same brushagain"

"would not recommend"

"i got this recently as it was half the price of the same brush in major supermarket its really good the brush vibrates every 30 seconds to let you know how long you are brushing for you are supposed to brush for 2 minutes but i found i was only doing mine for 30 seconds before i got this so now i try"

"i have had several of these and this is the first one to have a problem"

"i don't see why this won't happen"

"i had to put in a 'star' rating before amazon would accept this review and so i put 1 star but really it shouldn't have any stars!"

"i bought this for my boyfriend as his last electric toothbrush stopped working and i have this same one but in white"

"no complaint of the supplier or delivery just seem to have chosen an inferior model"
