Review (2/5): Cleans your teeth, but open it and find black mold
Most of these reviews sound like they were written by Sonicare reps.
I've been using Sonicare since they first came out. However, when they first came out they were owned by a small company in Washington that produced a quality product and had excellent customer service.
The original company was bought out years ago and the product has gone down hill. I'm sure if you read all the reviews, you will find many that complain about MOLD. My original Sonicare lasted 12 YEARS and never had a drop of mold in it. The next one - etype- I bought began to develop mold immediately. I wrote to the company, they told me to clean it. Bull, I'd have to clean it with BLEACH after every brushing. No thanks.
Typical of what so often happens when a major corporation wants a monopoly, the product quality slides and the prices go up. I will never buy another Sonicare toothbrush. They gouge you on the price of an inferior product built on a brand name with a huge reputation, then they gouge you on the replacement heads forever after. Well, I suggest looking around. There are a lot of excellent new ones on the market.
I gave it two stars because it does a good job cleaning - if you don't mind sticking something in your mouth that has mold over every surface under the brush. And please, don't tell me I don't "clean it good enough," that's corporate crap.
