Advantages: Easy to use, cleans well and has a great timer.

Disadvantages: Some parts get quite dirty.

I used to use an electric toothbrush when I was a child, but then for many years after that I used a normal toothbrush until recently when I got this - and now I remember just how good they are. I've always had pretty good oral hygiene, so it's not like I had to get one of these, or my dentist recommended it, but since I bought this, I have noticed a significant improvement to not only how clean my teeth look, but how they feel as well. Also, this is something that's so easy to make a part of your routine in the morning and evening.

Of course, like many solutions that are more high-tech than the traditional method, this is more expensive than a regular toothbrush. However, at about £25 online, this is still a really good deal. The only other expense is buying replacement heads for the toothbrush, but this is just the same as replacing your regular toothbrush really, and isn't expensive. The electric toothbrush comes with a charger, and is holds the battery charge for about a week or so, I find, with two people using it regularly, so it doesn't need charging too often, and when it does, it's very quick and easy.

The brush is very easy to use. It has one button on the front of the body and this turns the device on and off. The head has a good reach and I find it easy to reach all parts of my mouth and all my teeth, front and back.

One of my favourite things about this electric toothbrush is that it has a two-minute timer built in. This is the reccommended amount of time you should brush your teeth for, and the way it works is to time two minutes and then vibrate on and off at the end of the time to indicate that you can stop brushing. This is a really good and easy way of making sure you're looking after your teeth properly, and I think it's a great feature.

If there is a negative, it would be that the body of the toothbrush can get quite dirty and a sort of black substance can build up around the back, but this is only a visual thing, as the brush doesn't get dirty.

Overall, I think this is a great product for the price. You could spend more on an electric toothbrush, but I think this does everything you'd want from it, and it seems very well built and reliable. It has a good design and doesn't seem like it would break easily - I think this is a must for good oral hygiene.

Summary: A great buy to look after your teeth.
