Just as good as the rechargeble
I bought this Sonicare brush on a "trial" basis and I've found that it works just as well as the more expensive ones with the rechargeable batteries.<br /><br />There are two great benefits:<br />1) Low price of the brush.<br />2) Space saving in that you don't have to have a counter space/electrical plug for the charger.<br /><br />I've had my brush for over 3 months now and still using the original set of batteries provided.  No issues whatsoever.<br /><br />I also don't understand the reports of water leaking into the battery chamber.  I think maybe those are with the earlier designs but clearly, the one that I have is completely sealed and you should not get water in there unless you completely submerge your unit.
