What customers say about "Key Specs"

Oral-B Pro 5000 SmartSeries Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush

The rotating disk of bristles are much preferred by me.
Oral-B is supposed to be the better tooth brush due to the rotating brush head as opposed to the oscillating head. This is supposed to be better for the soft and hard tissues in your mouth.
I like this toothbrush because the rotating head cleans really well.
This is just what I needed. It has several speeds and the one I use is the 3rd speed or moderate speed.
With the different speeds and the pressure light I'm delighted.

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.

What customers say about "Product Dimentions"

Oral-B Pro 5000 SmartSeries Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush

Nice compact size, doesn't take up too much room on my sink.
It is such a hard place to get at, but the round head is the perfect size.
The size of the brush was decent. Even thought the holder looks big, it is actually very comfortable in the hand. It sort of has a shape that "fits" the contours of the hand. It feels solid and slip free.
The travel case that was included is a great compact size, perfect for fitting in a suitcase or carry-on, and it fit two brush heads in it as well.
The handle size is not the most ergonomic handle and takes a little to get used too.

Philips Sonicare Series 2 (HX6211/47) Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush

Perfect size and even comes with a charger that is great for traveling.
Great size and easy to handle.
Works well hold the charge nicely nice compact size fits in hand perfect.
Its light weight and easy to use and manage, love the variety of colors.
Very easy to use and light weight.
Brush size is small but able to purchase other brushes. does the job well.

What customers say about "Details"

Oral-B Pro 5000 SmartSeries Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush

At first I thought the bluetooth app was just a gimmick, however once I began using it with my smart phone I found it to be useful as the timer is accurate and the ability to pause to add more toothpaste allows for continuity.
It lets you connect the tooth brush to your smartphone and graph your brushing habits.
One of the handiest features of a smart electric brush like this is that it has a built in timer to help you to know if you've brushed enough to really clean your teeth.
You can watch the timer on your phone, which helps when you're first getting used to it, and it stores the times you brushed and for how long, and, after setting it up before hand, you can tell it if you flossed and cleaned your tongue.
There's a well-placed indicator light that blinks when you're using too much pressure.

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.

What customers say about "Power"

Oral-B Pro 5000 SmartSeries Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush

A full charge from zero is an overnight process and will last me well over a week, perfect for extended business travel.
The battery life is great on this brush, so if you are even leaving town for four days, you should be fine if you didn't bring the charging station.
Charging station is stable.
I like the charging station for this one - it's rectangular and holds 4 extra heads, it's much sturdier than the small round ones.
I thought it was time to get a rechargeable one. I went with this because I thought the app would help me maintain better oral health. The app is just okay.

Philips Sonicare Series 2 (HX6211/47) Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush

It does an excellent job and holds a charge for a long time so it travels well.
The charge lasts a really long time and I love that it turns off after 2 minutes.
Comes with NiMH battery (NiMH batteries have no memory). So you can leave it plugged in.
The charging station is easy to use with a simple, blinking green LED indicator light.
I am very happy with the Philips Sonicare rechargeable toothbrush because I feel I am able to reach around all of my teeth.
