Review (2/5): Philips Sonicare Toothbrush Essence e5500
My disappointment is that it's not built nearly as well as my older model and probably won't last as long; seems cheap by comparison. Also, no matter how well you wipe it after use, it still leaks water from the joint of the holder and the brush head. This transfers to the charger. Small point perhaps, but sloppy. As with my older model, the inside cavity must be cleaned I'd judge weekly. My older brush from Philips did not leak though. I'm thinking of returning the e5500 toothbrush and buying my older model again.
That said, it does a decent job of brushing and the angled brush head is convenient. My older model also did a decent job of brushing.
