Has anyone had any issues with their Sonicare getting really loud after replacing with these heads?

Yes, mine gets loud after brushing only a few times with the new head on. I've gone through the entire 3 pack in just two months because I can't stand the loudness. I wonder if it is possible that there were generic heads in the package?

Have not noticed louder noise, however do notice the brushes swing faster. That might be what you are registering as 'extra loud'.

Yes! These heads made the inside of my toothbrush rusty and then it got really loud! I've never had this problem before. Now I take the head off after I brush my teeth so it doesn't rust.

I've used generic brand brush heads for this toothbrush before, and they were very loud. I wonder if the ones you got weren't certified Sonicare ones.

I find no difference with the noise. I have been using the brush for a month and my device seems fine.

I have not found any such problem with my new headset. I used an identical one for at least 5 years, and never experienced this.

Ours makes a ton of noise too. It is very annoying and even wakes our baby up. Did you just call customer service to get a replacement?

Mine certainly get loud. I would assume it is your source. Make sure the volume on your computer is up.

Gee I am not sure. I originally ordered a new part because it just wouldn't hold a charge. But the part didnt work instead they offered to repair it for the same price. So I sent it to them and it has worked like a charm. I have had my original sonicare for probably 10+ years. After the repair they immediately sent it back. They were great!!

I have not had any problems. I don't crank it up super loud, but I do use it kind of loud for my surround sound. It works great and it replaced an old elite

I buy the ProResults HX6013. It says "For best results use genuine Philips Sonicare brush heads" on the package. I order online from Amazon. Good Luck.,P

Have you replaced the filter on the side that's going out? I do that every few months and it fixes the issue! MUCH cheaper than replacing the headset - mine's going strong for 4+ years (and I"m not nice to it)

@ SummerOneThanks for your input on this. Seems like the newer manufactured units are less prone to buzzing than the older ones. Also, seems like the buzzing on your first one was caused by the damage if it was a really loud buzz that you were hearing.I'm getting my panel replaced in January and will let y'all know if mine stops buzzing or not.

When I called Sonicare I was told that the model I had was counterfeit. I sent it back to Amazon and they gave me a refund. Buyer beware from this dealer.

I purchased a very popular brand and it was very loud. I replaced it w the same one Exact same problem. I sent it back and got this. No noises that I know of, very smooth.

We have been using Sonicare for many years. I bought the battery-powered toothbrush, since it's much more convenient. I have some brushheads from the maybe 10 year old rechargeable, and they fit, and work. I've not actually used them on a daily basis, but I did try one. I'm not surprised that Philips try to sell new brushes, and for all I know, the older style brushes don't work as well as the new style. Doesn't matter to me - usable or not - I love the new battery unit!

Yeah, that sucks. I figured it out after I couldn't return them anymore. I just gave them away and bought a much more expensive one to replace them. I got a Crown 28M to replace my two Pyles. It has been on for about 4 months now, and never hummed. I needed an always on system for PA work.

I received my order in Sonicare packaging that is, presumably, copyrighted. More importantly, the heads have performed exactly like Sonicare heads. I hope that this is helpful.

If you are speaking of the brush head, once you have the screws out just pull straight out. The belt is tight. I found the answer to the noise(if that is what you are doing) is to take and trim or carefully file to remove that small bit that may be rubbing. You have to do it running to keep it true. Once I trimmed the noise maker this unit has proven it is money well spent

I got mine in a 2for1 deal-- it might have been Groupon, I don't remember. The one I gave to my kids and it barely lasted 6 mos, but I'm pretty sure my son took it apart to "see how it worked"... however mine has worked great for almost 3 years now. In fact even my dentist was pleased, bought one herself and now recommends them (along with Sonic care) I basically got mine free, but I wouldn't have paid $99 for it reading all of the negative reviews. Apparently I got lucky, but I love mine. I get the replacement heads once a year, though. If you're the only one using it I can't see why you wold need replacement so often since you rotate using the three brushes. I got mine in a 2for1 deal-- it might have been Groupon, I don't remember.
