Reviews:
“got this “Xtreme” for my 14 year old son to encourage more teeth-brushing (and not having to use ours!). He has braces as well, and it works great. The colors are fun; maybe it will help your kid with teeth brushing. Can’t hurt, right?” (5 out of 5 stars)
“I am really happy with it. This works just like the Sonicare units with the charging stations, except that you change the batteries. The only downside is how fast it goes through batteries. The information on the product does tell you that it will go through the regular batteries quickly. I was getting only 3 days or so which I thought was little too fast. Lithium batteries last several weeks when the sonicare is used by one person.” (4 out of 5 stars)
“TI’m a big fan of Sonicare toothbrushes. My husband and I have a Sonicare Elite toothbrush set that came with 1 rechargable handle and 2 heads. We’ve been using this same set for over 5 years now! I still can’t believe it is still going strong. For many years we’d traveled on vacation with our Sonicare toothbrush with the bulky charging base. A few years ago, we discovered this model. The biggest difference for us is that this model runs on AA batteries so we don’t have to pack the large, bulky charging base when we go on vacation. With this model, run out of juice and you can replace the AA batteries which, by the way, last an unbelievably long time. We’ve gone many trips without ever changing the battery.” (5 out of 5 stars)
