How does this compare to more expensive rechargeable toothbrushes? Can your dentist tell if you've been using battery powered or rechargeable?

I have rechargeable one from Phillips. This one has its own advantages. Major pro is portable. For travel this one is the best. In terms of power rechargeable is best. My rechargeable has more power and options. Not sure if dentist can tell that. I think he may be able to say power or manual.

I'm sorry ... I can't give you an exact answer about rechargeable toothbrushes. Mine is a battery operated - non rechargeable one, - and the refills work perfectly with that type of Sprinbrush PRO Whitening.

I leave mine plugged in and in the base all the time. I alternate every other night brushing my teeth with a manual toothbrush. When I floss after using the Sonicare, it's *gross* how much gunk I'm able to get out easily. That alone proves how effective the Sonicare is at moving stuff out of the gums to where it can be removed. Just keep that kind of thing in mind: Sonicare vs. rotting gunk.

Just got mine today. The toothbrush runs on rechargeable battery. The charger is rated for 100-240 V ~ AC & 50 - 60 Hz

Honestly, the sonic works better than the cheaper versions. Batteries don't last long enough on the cheap version. Teethdon't seem to be as clean.

I own/use the 3000 myself. I have never used our experienced the other models. I went to the Oral-B site and compared the models then read many reviews and settled on the 3000. Two of my friends have them and they liked them. (Fyi, I have had mine for less than two years and l'm having a battery life issue while charging the unit as instructed.)

It runs on a rechargeable battery. All I do is plug it in a few days, unplug, and it works for a long time. You can tell when your using it when it will need to be plugged in again. I am very happy with the product and because of the multiple brush heads it comes with I can share it with my daughters and not have to have several different electric tooth brushes. Hope this helps.

I don't sell the toothbrush; I own one though. I'm not sure what charger you are talking about. I use re-chargeable AA batteries that I charge in a charger. So, if that's what you are talking about, it works for me.

Just guessing ...Does another brush head work? Maybe one was defective. Otherwise, maybe the toothbrush needs a recharge or is itself defective.

I ended up exchanging my vitality for a sonicare by Phillips. It's about 10$ more & it takes 24 hours to charge before your 1st use, but after that it's great! I saw a lot of comments online about battery problems with the Vitality.

Your assumption is correct. The battery/batteries is/are not user replaceable. The factory warranty is two years, but mine is dying quickly at the four year mark. I've just ordered a 3000 from Amazon.Proper charging will lengthen the life of the brush. My old Oral-B had NiCad batteries and had to be fully discharged about once every six months. I don't know what the battery composition is for the newer brushes. In my case, I think water damage may have caused it's demise.

This flosser is wireless. It has a cord that plugs into it and recharges it after the battery runs down. Needs to be recharged about once a week. Just plug it up and let it charge overnight.

Not long, I have had the toothbrush several months now and I have gone well over a week without charging it. I can't say exactly how long, but if I let it die and put it on charge before sleep, it can fully charge by the time I wake up

I'm not sure how long a charge lasts. I do know that I've used by toothbrush without it's charger while on vacation (5 days) and it worked for that amount of time. No matter how long the charge lasts, however, the Dazzlepro is the BEST toothbrush I've ever had, including a Sonicare. Also, customer service is excellent.

I charged mine up about 6wks.ago used the cleaning brush today for about 15 minutes when I got thru it showed no signs of needing recharging that's pretty good in my opinion.

Hi Julianne - I purchased such one about a year ago. Works perfectly and gives a treatment can't be achieved with toothbrush. I'm very satisfied. I use it on a 220V out of the US (works also on 110V, in the US). Best, Yuval (yuvalinbox@gmail.com )
