What customers say about "Key Specs"
Philips Sonicare Series 2 (HX6211/47) Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush
  • The sonic care really works, and I have seen and felt plaque and other debris in my teeth pulse and fly out of my mouth from the super fast vibrations on this unit!
  • The Sonic Care Electric Toothbrush Is Very Good And Saves On The Amount Of Toothpaste That Is Used.
  • For only having one speed it works great.
  • Tremendous sonic toothbrush at a great price. Highly recommend.
  • Cannot control speed and tickles the tongue and gums.
Philips Sonicare Essence (HX5611/01) Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush
  • Great toothbrush for a beginner sonic care toothbrush.
  • This is a great product my whole family uses the Sonic tooth brushes.
  • It also has a speed jolt to tell you when your two minutes of brushing is up. I love the vibrations of this toothbrush.
  • It has one speed and the charged base is very compact.
  • It did take me a little while to get used to it because the vibration is pretty intense at first and there are no speed settings on this model.

What customers say about "Details"
Philips Sonicare Series 2 (HX6211/47) Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush
  • I love the Smart timer, as it ensures I brush the appropriate amount of time. It is easy to use, charge, and care for; also it takes up very little space.
  • Seems to leave teeth feeling cleaner and auto timer feature keeps you on time to cover each section of your teeth properly.
  • The brush heads have indicators for when to replace as well.
  • The toothbrush is ergonomically designed well for a good grip while brushing. Nicely can work around all the teeth.
  • Rudimentary battery level indicator.
Philips Sonicare Essence (HX5611/01) Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush
  • This model doesn't have the timer like most models. I like the larger toothbrush head.
  • The timer feature is very nice and lets you know you have done a complete cleaning.
  • Great toothbrush I really like the vibration it has.
  • It has a 2 minute timer that takes a little bit of getting used to but otherwise I highly recommend it.
  • he charging LED indicator keeps flashing even though it was charged over night. The battery seems to hold the charge though.
  • The battery indicator is super minimal and this brush pretty much asks to be charged all day, every day because of the lack of a battery meter. But so far, it works just fine and totally serves the purpose.
