Did someone make a massive mistake at the company?
I’ve been using Oral-B electric toothbrushes for decades and have purchased numerous models over that time and never have Oral-B ever sold them without a brush or two included in the package. However, this very expensive AutoBrush package doesn’t contain the very item that allows you to do what is intended, namely, the brush head (see my photo). The question should be, if you’re selling a toothbrush, can you still call it that if you don’t actually include the brush head?<br /><br />What you’re paying for is the body of the toothbrush, the charger, the charging adaptor, and its cable. The side of the box says that the brush heads are not included. However, the listing says otherwise - “Brush Head Included”. But it’s not. Not only that but you can’t even buy the brush head on Amazon! You have to go do that on their website directly. They’re $10 each.<br /><br />Not having the brush heads means that I can’t really test the efficacy of the brush and their stated claim that it works better than normal brushing. But, after turning on the unit and grabbing the metal prong where it connects with the brush head to feel the vibration, I have to say that it feels extraordinarily weak. I fail to see how these micro-vibrations will do anything to remove plaque. The power put out by Oral-B or Sonicare is 10 times stronger.<br /><br />In summary, this all seems “too good to be true”. First, they don’t include a brush head in their kit – even though they say that they do. Then, the weak vibrations from the motorized body feel like my iPhone vibrations. How can that possibly clean your teeth?!
