Phillips, like many companies, has chosen to confuse customers to get more money. By making the different models so confusing, they encourage you to just buy the most expensive one instead of wrestling with their confusing product descriptions. This is probably the most common marketing strategy these days.

Johnny B G is correct. You should just buy the basic one for $35 if it works then great if it is just ok then next time upgrade. It is just like my Phillips electric razors, there are many price levels but they all do basically the same thing, shave my face. I could pay $30 for a basic or $200 for a fancy one with a cleaner and clock (really a clock). I go with the basic everytime because the blades are about $28 to replace so I have a lot of old razors. Hope this helps, and yes Phillips should let you replace the batteries rather than toss the old unit when the batteries fail.

Hey Roseanne, I'm not sure of this brand, but it looks like another knock off like the diamond Ultrasonic tooth brush I bought from Groupon a couple years back, which went in the trash six months later. Here's what I've learned about Groupon on things like this. Groupon is great for deals on certain things, but if it involves your health just pay the extra and buy a quality product. You might be saving $50 bucks and it could be a decent tooth brush, but if it's not you'll pay the difference in filling cavities. So my advice, pay the extra and stick with a brand you know works.

In my search for a shaver, I also had a question about that. What I found were basically three things: the finish color and style, 760 is black while the 790 is a nice silver finish. In terms of performance features, the 790 utilizes an LCD display for battery status and hygiene information. The 760 uses an LED display with just indicator lights to differentiate battery level; no hygiene status. One more thing, the 790 has a quicker clean cycle. Other than these three things, no other differences. Personally, I have the 760 and I am very happy with it. I think either would do a great job. Aesthetics and slight feature differences. Good luck.

Phillips is been around for a long, long time. They stand behind every one of their products. This tooth brush is the greatest and it is a long lasting machine. I don't think you will ever need to use the warranty. I've been using Phillips toothbrushes for many years now and I never had any need to use my warranty. Of course, this is not to say that there is always a bad apple some place, but again, Phillips is a reputable company. I am planning to buy another one of these units for myself and I bought one for my wife. She loves it. I hope this will help you on your decision. Good luck.

As far as I can tell from the Google searches I conducted the biggest difference is in the faster speed the 790 cleans. I suppose this is important if there are multiple users to the razor. Apparently there was a bigger difference between the 60 and 90 prior to the updated 760-cc 4 currently being sold. Today Other than the cleaning speed the two razors appear to be mechanically identical spec wise.

Hello! The differences are mostly cosmetic. Both toothbrushes have the same body, motor, and charger. The older model (02) is red, and comes with three face plate options and two heads (one large, one small). The newer model (07) is blue, and comes with eight face plate options but only one head (large).I actually would recommend the older model over the new, at least currently, because it's cheaper and comes with the two different brush sizes.

Wow...tough question. i am scott, account in my wife's name. was able to get this at a great price as the three d versions are everywhere and i wanted the cleaning base.go to the Phillips site and you can view all the models. Costco has a great price on a 3d model with no cleaner also. My face is more round than angular and i also read the 2d is better for my kind of face. Plus i can always replace the razor head with a 3d after a year.I was a wet shaver and used an old school saftey razor. That said, i couldnt be happier.sorry for the delayed response.scott Wow...tough question. i am scott, account in my wife's name. was able to get this at a great price as the three d versions are everywhere and i wanted the cleaning base.go to the Phillips site and you can view all the models.

I have not purchased this brand yet, I'm about to. But, I have used the same/similar before. I see a lot of you commenting that the numbers wear off. If you have a standard dose that you use, you can mark where it is with a sharpie before it disappears. That lasts long after the other wears off. Just a suggestion.

I was not aware of the two versions until just now. However, I used the regular one. I have pretty sensitive teeth and did not experience any problems whatsoever. Now that I know about the speed whitening product, I will try that one and post my comments shortly thereafter. I am very pleased with the results I have achieved with the regular version. Saw results after one use. I used it the first time for 20 minutes. I used it every day for two weeks, and then continued to use it for about 3 times a week after that. I have recommended it everyone!

First, I had no problem with the four I bought. The Ultreo was by far and away the best toothbrush we ever had. However, I am confused. I thought they went out of business. But I see that on their site www.Ultreo.com they are selling the brush for $150. Then again, Amazon is selling it for $200. I just bought a DazzlePro and it seems to be almost as good as the Ultreo.

Thanks for the reply. If you're right, it's odd that it's the one with the facial recognition that is cheaper---maybe there's some other difference?

If I had to state my honest opinion I wouldn't use this particular one. I've tried it and after the third strip I thought my teeth were going to fall out. I was in so much pain I didn't even want to talk. I would suggest using the crest 3d professional effects. 20 days worth of strips come in the package and I think they say you can do it twice a year. The results were perfect. My cousin uses the same ones, is a smoker and drinks lots of coffee and here teeth look amazing. They also have whitening strips that I believe are 5 minute ones possibly that you could do as a touch up process in between the 20 day treatments. Hope this helps.

I am an owner, not a merchant. I have the first version which is green and the latest model is blue. I've examined the blue version and cannot find a significant difference between the two, other than cosmetic. I've been using mine a few years and it works great, assuming it is set up correctly with a good blade. The current price shown in the Amazon add is about $100 more than I paid but, that was a few years ago and I didn't get free shipping so, you might want to look at all costs involved.

Apparently you have to buy it from the dentist for a warranty but since I heard that - their ownership changed. I tried to call them for a month (per my dentists instructions) to give them the serial number on it and my dentist's information but they never got back to me. Finally - my dentist handled it aOld onend I got two in the mail.... Maybe the new ownership is better. Old one had horrible customer service....

Hi Jamie, I personally use this Philips Sonicare HX6911/02 FlexCare Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush (Sonicare FlexCare) and it came with brushing mode. It costs a little bit more than other Sonicare toothbush but it is all worth it. I have a very sensitive gums so this works out for me. And also, I noticed after I started using Sensodyne toothpaste, my gums bleed less. In fact, it hasn't bleed in a while. Hope this helps.
