Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Not all power toothbrushes are created equal. Only Sonicare combines 31,000 brush strakes per minute and extra-wide sweeping motion to create dynamic fluid cleaning action. Inspired by the sonic technology used in dental offices. Sonicare's unique dynamic fluid action gently and effectively reachs deep between teeth and below the gum line.

Amazon.com Review
Sonicare's Advance 4100 (previously known as the PS-1) cleans with an ultrahigh-speed motion, leaving teeth feeling sparkling fresh. Extra-soft bristles let the user apply as much pressure as desired, making the Sonicare perfect for people with sensitive teeth, braces, and implants. While proven to be as or more effective than manual brushing for removing plaque and preventing gingivitis, the Sonicare Advance is also guaranteed to remove 80% of tobacco, tea, and coffee stains in just 28 days. The Smartimer function takes the guesswork out of how long to brush by automatically shutting off the brush after two minutes. The 4100 includes one standard-size brush head, a charger base, and a handle that holds its charge for up to two weeks, making it ideal for travel. A two-year warranty covers the handle and charger against defects. --Ann Bieri

5 out of 5 stars Electric toothbrush   September 3, 2008
model railroading babe
I am very pleased I found this item on Amazon. The price was descent.


5 out of 5 stars The best toothbrush but cheaper somewhere else   September 2, 2008
C.L.
I have owned electric toothbrushes before. I had a braun for several years and then switched to manual. I don't remember this dentist clean feel after brushing with my old tootbrushes. I bought this here for $55.00 with free shipping. Only to see it at Bed, bath and beyond (BBB) for $39.99, 3 weeks later. With the 20% coupon that you get in the mail every month from BBB that adds up to your savings. So check BBB first before buying it here.


5 out of 5 stars Sonicare ROCKS!   September 2, 2008
Neil Evangelista (Boca Raton, Florida)
Great product. I had been using an ordinary manual toothbrush, and my checkups were good, but not great. My dentist said the Sonicare is the best for the teeth and gums, and I agree. Mine have never felt cleaner. I'm anxiously awaiting my next appointment to see if my pockets have gotten smaller.


3 out of 5 stars Not Exactly the Same   September 1, 2008
Judi Bee (S.E. PA)
I purchased the closest Sonicare model to the one I had which died after 5 years of use. Unfortunately, this model does not have the 30 second pacer, which I really loved with my original one. It may have been a good time for me to upgrade to the newer model, but I had just purchased two packages of the replacement heads that went with my original model. As the replacement heads are not inexpensive, I bought the same model in order to use them. Next time, I'll read the product features more carefully before ordering!


2 out of 5 stars Non-replaceable battery leaves a bad taste in my mouth   August 29, 2008
Just a reviewer
I would like this much better if the batteries could be replaced. I had to throw away my sonicare even though it was perfectly good because the batteries had worn out. I was trying to replace the batteries since they're standard AA Ni-CD, but in the process broke something on the PCB.

I could have had more years of usage on this thing otherwise. Having to throw away a perfectly good item seems so wasteful.
