A good idea, but has design flaw
I really wanted to love this.  It seemed like the perfect alternative to my aging WaterPik brand water flosser.  It's smaller, light weight and doesn't have a huge tank and curly hose like the Water Pick.  BUT,<br />it is a poor substitute.  First the water tank is pretty small and I usually run out of water before I'm done.<br />The tank has a design flaw.  There is a curved hose that is inside the tank that delivers water to the head.  If you don't hold the flosser in the right position, the hose is out of the water and doesn't work.  I can turn the head, but I have to turn off the flosser to do that.<br />It makes a loud noise, especially when the water gets low, that is irritating to me.  The Water Pick makes a noise too, but this is louder and more shrill.<br />This set included little plastic tips that go on the end of the flosser head, but it constantly falsl off and tries to go down the drain so I just leave it off.<br />It comes with several replacement heads.  That's good.  It has two settings.  One is pretty hard the other is very gentle.  You have to push the on button quickly after it starts to get to the gentle setting which is not as easy as it sounds when you are squirting water in your mouth and trying not to make a mess.<br />It's not perfect. It may be okay for travel, but I guess I'll keep my WaterPik until it dies completely (it's 10 years old) and then get another WaterPik. In the meantime I'll keep trying to like this one.
