This brush is suitable for adults and children aged 3+ and has had a fair workout in our house this week; overall I'd say it does a pretty good job and is worthy of one's consideration.I'd hope most people (including children) use an electric toothbrush; they are so much better at cleaning one's teeth when compared to a manual brush. We've had electric brushes in our household for almost 20 years (eek!) and over that time there are three key points I look for when replacing a brush:How much does it cost?How much are replacement heads?How long is the guarantee?The actual effectiveness in cleaning teeth perhaps comes a surprising fourth; not because I don't care about dental hygiene,but because if one isn't constantly consuming sugar-filed junk and brushes one's teeth regularly, for the correct length of time with a decent toothpaste, then even the most basic brush will keep the teeth in good order.I think this brush represents very good value for money, especially as the guarantee can be extended to three years by registering on-line ... excellent! The replacement brush heads are very reasonably priced and this is very important; if the brush heads are too expensive, it's possible they won't be replaced on time leading to less effective brushing (the whole point of an electric toothbrush really).We have been mostly a Sonicare household in recent years and I think the brushing experience is slightly better than the Oral B. However, the prices for genuine Sonicare brush heads can be prohibitive; especially for the small-sized brushes for the Sonicare Kids ... they are £8 each and last about eight weeks!So this is a no frills, base-model brush and apart from a pulse after two minutes to let the user know they've brushed for the recommended time , that's it ... no thirty-second quadrant pulse ... something I find very useful, especially with children. There's not even an indicator to remind one to recharge the battery, so it would be best if the brush can be permanently stored on its charging base if one's situation permits. So it really is almost as basic as one can get. The battery will last for about twenty minutes on a full charge (about five days on a twice a day routine).However; having said all of that it is an entry-level brush and it's all about keeping the costs down.The base of the brush is quite small and it's prone to falling over if stood on the back of the sink. It designed to be able to lie flat on its back without rolling over; useful if one puts toothpaste on the brush ready for a child to use.Based on my experience with all of the various brushes I'd say this is a good brush that can be used by the whole family. It's supplied with two brush heads and potentially a three year warranty. If I was starting out for the first time, particularly with children in the house, I'd buy this brush and lots of brush heads (and do have a look at the brush head prices compared to the Sonicare).

This is an entry level electric toothbrush, ideal to give you an idea if you will get along with electric toothbrushes, some people just can't seem to get along with the new sensation of a toothbrush buzzing around in their mouth and go back to their manual brush, so spending a fortune on your first brush isn't ideal if you then find you don't like the sensation. However just because it is at entry level price it does not mean you are going to get a poor performance, this brush cleans your teeth well and can cope with crowns, braces and fillings etc without an issue.The brush does nearly all the things that many more expensive brushes do; you have the handy 2 minute timer to let you know that you have brushed for long enough (fabulous for children who are not so keen on cleaning anything,let alone their teeth), you also get the special criss cross angled tooth brush head which is excellent, really good at getting in between the teeth to give a really good clean and there is the charging unit too. It is also compatible with all other styles of oral b brush heads, so you are not limited to buying this type alone, you can buy whatever you fancy( or whatever is on offer!)The charging unit is powered by a 2 pin plug so you will need to either use a shaving point or an adapter (around £1 to buy).What it is missing that the more expensive tooth brushes have is the 30 second counter to tell you to change brushing areas and the charging/ low battery light. If you can live without these things you can save yourself a lot of money.After brushing the end result isn't dramatically different... it didn't suddenly give me a day glo white Hollywood smile, but my teeth were squeaky clean and plaque free, my mouth felt fresh and clean -pretty much all you can ask for from a tooth brush.Another handy feature is the average 5 days of use you get from a single charge, though this is not as long as some of the really expensive tooth brushes, it is still perfectly adequate and the only disadvantage with it being a 5 day charge instead of the 7 day of the more expensive models is that if you are taking your brush on holiday you will need to pack its charger (as well as its sun block ;)).As for the benefits of this tooth brush, well our hygienist will be very happy with my family- she tells me using an electric toothbrush has been found to stop people pressing quite so hard and therefore causing damage to the enamel of teeth, simply because this pressure literally wears out your teeth- I can see where she is coming from on this, I definitely seem to be gentler in my brushing when using an electric toothbrush and don't feel the need to really scrub at my teeth to give them that squeaky clean feeling.

I have to confess that I have always thought the electric toothbrushes were an unnecessary silly fad. I've only ever had one filling, and my teeth are good and I have always felt a normal toothbrush and regular brushing was enough.Recently my dentist has encouraged me to floss more to get in between the teeth, so I've been trying that to avoid further dental works.I was then given the opportunity to trial this toothbrush and I do have to say that I have been impressed. It seems well made and comfortable to hold. I can't compare it especially against other electric toothbrushes but compared to normal brushing I can.I have to say that my teeth do feel more clean and smooth after brushing.The brush is noticeably better at getting in between the molars and covering the "fangs" well, with its rotating head. This clearly is of benefit, especially if you do have some gaps between the teeth.This particular one comes with a small yellow plastic disc in between the bristles for polishing. I've only used this for a week or two so can't say that I have massively noticed the difference, but my wife thinks that they have worked well on her teeth. You do have to be careful not to push to hard as this can catch your gums slightly and cause discomfort.The toothbrush comes with two heads, which is useful so you can interchange and more than one can use it, otherwise you have a spare brush head.The charging can take several hours, although you can leave it on the base in between brushing to keep the charge topped up.You can change the toothbrush head and use the several different choices from Oral B to suit.Well worth a try if you have never used an electric toothbrush. If you have then I guess you'd need to compare specs and reviews to see how it compares with other ones available.=========EDIT July 2020=========Still working fine over 5 years later proving how well made it is. Replacement heads including compatibles readily available.A good buy![If you found my review helpful I would be really grateful if you would kindly click on 'helpful', many thanks in advance]

"Recommended by dentists" it says on the packaging. The packaging itself reflects this – it's just, well, packaging. Very plain, cheap and boring, it's a pain to open and an pain to get everything out, but when it's all unpacked you are looking at a nice toothbrush.It comes with a two pin plug, I'm not sure if shaving plugs are even a standard fitting in a bathroom anymore, so it would be good to see this feature corrected and a standard UK fitting plug used instead, saving the need for a clunky two pin adapter.The brush handle is solid, quite large and with the only feature being the power button, there is no indicator of charge or power, which is something that Braun (Oral-B) could've put in,as you never know how much charge is left before it cuts out. The package includes two brush heads, each with a yellow washer that you need to put on, this I don't get, as it seems like something that could've just been put together during manufacture. The two minute timer works well though.The brush heads supplied are the standard ones and are solid and firm, this brush handle also accepts a couple of alternative heads though, which is nice, so you can opt for a slightly more expensive and better quality head if you want. It would've been nice if two different brush heads were supplied though, for comparison.The noise level is much improved from the previous model, although I see no more differences other than the two minute timer. The bottom rubber of the handle also looks liable to mould like the previous model did when put damp back onto the stand, so make sure it's all dry before doing so.Overall it's a very standard toothbrush, nothing special or cutting edge, unlike what Philips are doing with their Diamond Clean brushes, which are much better than the brush heads here, but with that comes expense, of course. And for the money I think this is a good product.

I’ve been using Oral B brushes for over 20 years, and I know they’re good because my dentist always (jokingly) complains there’s nothing for her to do because there’s never any plaque to clean, She also always praises me on my brushing – and I know it’s not me, it’s the brush.I’ve tried a few of the super fancy, i.e. expensive, Oral B brushes but I find that I just want something with a button to press once for on/off that just cleans my teeth.This particularly model is a lovely basic toothbrush that is perfect for my needs. Oral-B make a variety of brush heads. I generally use the basic round brush head. This unit is supplied with a slightly oval plaque/stain removal brush and it cleans my teeth ok,but when it comes to replacement I’ll go back to my usual basic round brush heads. My dentist certainly seems happy with the job they do.The recommended brushing time is two minutes and a handy timer sounds every 30 seconds to let you know it’s time to move on to the next quarter of your mouth. The handle has a comfortable non-slip grip and the power button falls comfortably under my thumb.I’ve always stored my brushes on the charger, so they are always fully charged. They don’t stand up very well on their own as the base is the narrowest part of the barrel. The charger is equipped with a two-pin shaver type plug so if, like me, you don’t have a bathroom shaver socket then you need a two-pin adapter and your brush will need to live somewhere else. I just don’t keep mine in the bathroom, and I’ve been not keeping it in the bathroom for such a long time that I don’t consider it a problem.This is basically the same brush as the first Oral-B I ever bought, just some cosmetic differences. The charger is smaller, the brush is taller. I like that. Once I’ve found something that works I don’t need it fancying up. I can happily recommend this.

I became a convert to electric toothbrushes a few years ago and since then don't like normal toothbrushes as I feel they don't clean as thoroughly .This toothbrush comes complete with two heads and is the combination of 2 existing products - the oral b vitality toothbrush and the oral B cross action .Personally I feel it delivers in every count - it does thoroughly clean your teeth , no fancy gadgets , lights etc just a good old rapid through clean - in a way not possible with a normal toothbrush -as its 2d cross action brushes at rapid strokes.Your teeth are minty clean after . It also doesn't sound like you are in the bathroom with a grass cutting mower as since its newer technology it worksfaster and quiter.You can change the brush heads depending on your needs and its compatible with a lot of the other oral b heads - so if your got sensitive teeth, dentures , like a hard or soft brush you can get what suits . Brush heads can be dear but if you shop around and keep your eye on prices of bulk packs on Amazon you can get a deal from a seller.Next charging it comes with the standard charger and the good news if you have existing toothbrushes in your household with chargers it may fit these too -in my case It fits my older model charger . I'm also very lazy at charging - the number of times that the toothbrush runs out during mid brushing is pretty high with me , but this holds a good charge for several days .Price wise it's great - especially as this product comes with the extra two brush heads , and you have the additional bonus if a 3 year guarantee .If your looking for a toothbrush I would highly recommend this -unless you fancy a robo cop of lightening up gagdets this is a versatile brush that definitely delivers all your needs.

I'm probably WAY behind the times here, but this is the very first electric toothbrush I've ever owned. I don't know why, specifically, only that they've always seemed a bit expensive and I've been using a good old fashioned toothbrush my whole life and have managed to keep my teeth pretty well. However, Amazon vine offered me this electric toothbrush to try and review, so I thought, "Well, why not". I have to admit, I wish I'd made the switch before because going from a manual toothbrush to an electric toothbrush is like going from a child's scooter to a motorbike. They are worlds apart and the lovely clean feeling I've got in my mouth after a few minutes with this Oral B Vitality Plus toothbrush lasts for much,much longer than the old fashioned toothbrush which relied upon elbow power.It comes with a recharging station which plugs into a two-pronged shaving port (important to know, as not everyone has them in their bathroom), which keeps your toothbrush ready for action at all times. It also comes with two toothbrush heads, so that when you've worn the first one out, you have another ready while you order/buy replacements. There is a built in timer (two minutes) which lets you know when you've brushed your teeth for the recommended minimum time, but - if you're anything like me - you will still want to keep going a bit longer anyway.Apologies for those prior electric toothbrush owners who want a review to contrast and compare models; this review is more about the revelation of going from manual to electric than the fineries of electric toothbrush ownership. I would, however, urge anyone considering a switch from the old fashioned way to an electric model to take the leap. The difference is amazing.

This is Oral B's budget electric brush and it certainly shows in the packaging and the amount of stuff you get in the box.The box houses a polystyrene holder that contains the main brush, a box with the stand and 2 pin plug in and 2 brush heads, along with a thin instruction booklet (more a piece of paper than a booklet). The brush comes with some charge but it's recommended that it's charged fully before the first use to get the best from the battery.The brush itself is basic in design, it has an on-off button and no lights on the front. There is a timer but all this does is make a different vibration every 30 seconds so that you know to change to the next quarter of your teeth.The brush heads are the ones that have the soft yellow polishing head on, but you can buy other types. This brush accepts the 4 main brush heads that Oral B do for their whole range of toothbrushes.It's worth noting that a 2 pin shaver plug comes as standard, as it does on all electric toothbrushes. The reason for this is that you are not supposed to have a mains plug in the bathroom and most people have a shaver adaptor on the wall, so this is designed to recharge the brush from that adaptor, not from a mains socket. That said, adaptors to charge from a wall socket are available for less than a couple of pounds from most big supermarkets, DIY stores or Amazon themselves.Does it work, though? Yes, just as well as most other brushes, even ones twice the price. The heads are designed well enough that the budget brush design doesn't impede the brushing in any way. Yes, other brushes may have more features and modes, but this is perfect as a first electric brush and does the job admirably.

As a basic range toothbrush this model is as good as it gets for the price. I've used Braun for years and like any company that makes personal care products Braun have various models and the really expensive ones have features that gradually trickle down, over the years, to cheaper ones. This Pro Vitality is an excellent teeth cleaner and the model has been out for some time but it still doesn't have a charging light and alternating as a low battery level light. The cost of having these features must be negligible.Another disappointment, admittedly minor, is that the charger still can't be screwed to the bathroom wall. I have a light and shaver point unit in my bathroom (common, I believe,in millions of other households) and the only way to use the charger is to rest it on top of this unit. Far better to have charger that could be wall-mounted next to this and then plugged in. Some years ago Braun toothbrushes did come with a wall-mounted charger.Another disappointment (OK, again minor) is the packaging. The plastic box is not easily opened and I find this odd because for years Braun has had a reputation for quality designed consumer products (under the leadership of designer Dieter Rams) and I would have thought the company could have designed a product container that was functional and easily opened but it seems not.This is an excellent quality toothbrush from a reliable manufacturer but it's a pity that the less essential elements of the product haven't had more thought given to them.

This is the current entry-level Oral B electric brush and it is decent. The next model up, for an extra £10, is the Pro 600 and there is very little difference between these two models - I have used both extensively. Note that there is the Vitality and the Vitality Plus - the difference is one extra brush head, currently for £2.50 extra, which is worth it.This brush does its intended job well and has a good choice of brush heads (see below) so you should be able to find the one that suits you. It doesn't have the bells and whistles that the expensive models have, but I don't think these make much, if any, difference. The battery life is poor - you will get 6 days out of it, from a 16 hour full charge,which means it needs over 2.5 hours of charging a day - it is best suited to sitting on the charger between uses, if your bathroom set-up allows for this. You can't overcharge this brush,according to the manual, which used to be the curse of older models.Brush heads: you can use FlossAction, Cross Action; Precision Clean; Sensitive; Dual Clean; and 3D White. The last of which is what you get in the box.Overall:a very capable toothbrush, but nothing special. The broad choice of heads is a definitely plus and it is on a par with the Pro 600 series, which is more expensive (the Pro 600 is a 3D brush while this is a 2D brush, but the only difference is the head, which this one can take). Battery life is a weakness and if you travel a lot, you will find it annoying.

Great budget electric toothbrush. I have been using Oral B electric brushes for over 25 years now - I sometimes flirt with other brands but always come back. They are reliable and long lasting and it is easy to find replacement heads in any supermarket. This brush comes with two "White and clean heads" - these are smallish heads which I like with a yellow harder plastic bit in the centre and bristles around it - it is meant to clean your teeth and make them look whiter than standard heads. The base unit is exactly the same as that for the Trizone and floss action handsets - the only difference is the heads supplied which are usable with any handset. Therefore,if you dislke the head you can buy another type and it will still fit.As an entry level brush there is no indicator light ( for charging) or 3 pin plug adapter - you need to buy one (if you don't have one) to use with the 2 pin lead supplied. This fits into shaver points but my shaver socket is in the bathroom and the instructions say not to charge the unt in a bathroom which is a bit confusing. These 2 reasons are why I have dropped a star on the review.You can also buy an accessory pack with "hummingbird flosser", interdental brush and tongue cleaner which I have always found really useful and have meant that I have not needed to se a hygienist for many years (saving a lot of money)

This is a pretty basic electric toothbrush that is being sold at the time of writing this review at £17.50 Both myself and my husband use the Oral B electric toothbrushes already and are very pleased with them. This one will be used for holidays, it's slim and compact and easy to pack.The packaging includes two replacement heads and a charger.The toothbrush cleans well, the head shape is very good and gets into all the nooks and crannies. There is a timer mechanism which lets you know when two minutes have passed - this is really usefulThe shaver plug in my bathroom is no more, so I've had to buy an adapter plug in order to charge this up, it would be great if one of these was supplied with the product in the first place.However, the unit does stay charged for around 5 days. My one niggle about the charging is that there is no indication that the unit is about to die, it just stops, and there is no light on the unit when charging, so you have to take a guess as to when it's done. This is the only reason that I've marked the unit down from five stars.There are other types of head available to buy separately, I have tooth implants and require the head that is suitable, it'[s good that these are available to buy.All in all, a good basic electric toothbrush that does the job very well.

There are many more, more expensive electric toothbrushes on the market but, really, you're probably not going to need moist of the features that they offer and you'll probably find this model more than adequate.The most important features that an electric toothbrush should have are that it reaches all the parts that require cleaning and that cleaning is better than an ordinary, manual toothbrush. On these two counts, yep, the Oral B Vitality Plus performs, every part of every tooth ends up feeling cleaner than with an ordinary brush. In particular I normally have a lot of trouble reaching the backs of my back teeth, with this brush they get the clean that they need.A rather handy feature is the two minute timer,Oral B recommend that you spend about thirty seconds on each quarter of your mouth and the timer will let you know when you've been brushing for the full two minutes.A full charge lasts most of the week and this can be done with a standard two-pin shaver socket, failing that you'll need to acquire a three-pin adapter. If kept on the charging station it will keep charged, alternatively a sixteen hour charge every five days will do.This is a good basic, introductory electric toothbrush that, though it lacks some of the more advanced features, will do most people just fine.

The The Oral-B Vitality electric toothbrush does exactly what it is supposed to. If you compare it to some other electric toothbrushes it might seem fairly basic.It doesn't have a digital screen, have various modes or light up to say when it's in need of a charge. However, there are plenty of things to like about this brush.Firstly it has a nice big handle with a rubber grip, making it easy to hold. It has a timer which runs for the recommended 2 minutes, which then causes the brush to stutter when the 2 minutes is up.Changing brushes is a breeze, just pull to take off, and then just push the replacement back on.It is a bit more noisy then other electric toothbrushes that I've used,but this is no big deal. And I would prefer if the brush cut off after the two minutes rather than stutter - but this is all personal preference.If you're looking for an all singing all dancing toothbrush with various buttons to press, then this isn't the toothbrush for you. However, if you want a toothbrush that does a good job you might want to consider this one.It would have been nice to have an extra replacement brush included in this package, but overall I was pleased with the product.Please take note that if you don't have a two pronged plug socket you'll need to buy an adapter.
