I just got my Sonicare tooth from BzzAgent, and I must say, the packaging is quite nice.

The outer box looks pretty attractive, and I'll definitely be interested if I were looking for a rechargable toothbrush in a store when I see it.

The box however is totally destroyed after I open the packaging, and the interior is properly sealed to prevent contaminants. A nifty idea I guess except I would need to have a scissors or some sort of cutting tool to access it.

I would be really crossed if I was travelling and I got this toothbrush and it is late at night and I cannot remove it out of the packaging.


Packaging aside, the toothbrush itself looks pretty good along with its accessory. For a brand that I have not heard before for rechargable toothbrushes, Philips has done a pretty good job of designing.

So I charged it and tested the toothbrush for the first time.

I read through the instructions manual and it looks pretty informative and well formated.

After charging was done, I used it for the first time.

My initial response was:

Damn this is loud!!

As a sonic toothbrush, I guess the word "Sonic" says it all.

Sound aside, It felt pretty good, and my teeth felt much cleaner after the brush.

I've had several electrical toothbrushes, and I would say, the Sonicare Toothbrush is by far the one that cleans the best.

Aside from cleaning my teeth well, it also feels well made and durable. Everything seems to be sealed and you cannot see any exposed terminal for the batteries, an important feature as a toothbrush is always going to be wet.

Overall, I like the toothbrush, and I hope the accessories are easily available and not too expensive as I stopped using my other electric toothbrushes when the toothbrush heads cost $10 each to replace... Some of them became discontinued after I had the toothbrush for 3 months, and the worn tootbrush cannot be replaced...
