2 out of 5 stars Brush head quality inferior to previous ones   November 26, 2009
ed word
I've owned my Flexcare unit for about a year and a half. It's been alright, nothing spectacular since I've previously had various Sonicare models over the past 10 years. The Flexcare handle smells awful because it is made of soft rubber and not hard plastic, but aside from that, not too many complaints.

The problem I have is with the newer replacement Sonicare Flexcare heads that say "ProResults" on them. These have softer bristles and are of cheaper quality. And as if that's not bad enough, Sonicare has removed the date stickers that are useful in reminding us when to replace the brush heads and instead have a blue colored section of the bristles which will turn to light blue and indicate that it's time to change the brush heads. Something is wrong because the brush head indicator notified me that it's time to change the brush head even though it was less than two weeks old. Just to make sure that particular brush head wasn't defective, I tried another brush head and had the same result, about two and a half weeks. I brush my teeth with the Flexcare only once a day and just for the two minutes, so I'm kind of curious why this is happening.

My reasoning is Sonicare made the switch to the blue indicator to trick users into thinking that the brush head should be replaced prior to when it actually should be replaced. This is an awful business practice; the Flexcare system is already expensive enough, having to change brush heads every month or two months is just ridiculous; it negates what makes the Flexcare somewhat more cost effective. That being said, once my third brush head is finished, I'm finished with the Flexcare. I will either go back to a "lower model" Sonicare or make the switch to Oral-B or Ultreo.

I prefer the standard brush heads. They are a tad smaller than regular toothbrushes so I have no problem fitting them in my mouth and getting to all the hard to reach spots. Amazon offers them at a lower price and their shipping is fast. And with the Subscribe & Save service, you get free shipping! Great deal!

Bought them for my FlexCare, it's the same type as the one that came with the toothbrush. These heads have always been pricy but it's still cheaper than having dental cavities treated, which happens a lot to me before I switched to Sonicare. The only downside is Amazon only offers every 6 month subscribe and save option when 3 heads could last you a total of 9 months at 3 months per head. So I can't really take advantage of the discount.

The Philips Sonicare Brush Heads are some of the most expensive to replace and Amazon.com has the best deal. Since these always need to be replaced, you can save an extra 15% with "Subscribe and Save." By taking advantage of this, you can also decide how often to have them replaced, so you don't even have to remember to reorder. Not only this, but shipping is free! It's totally convenient - delivered right to you - and a better price than picking them up at a local store.

I was very impressed by this toothbrush. It cleans very well, but I did not notice marked whiteness in my teeth. I had not been to a dentist in six years, and within a month of using this brush my dentist said that my teeth looked excellent. I would recommend the Sonicare highly.
