    The Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush has completely changed my mind about "fancy" toothbrushes. I was a hold-out - an "old school" toothbrush user - I mean, why pay more than $1.89 for a toothbrush if you don't have to, right?! Wrong.

    When this beauty arrived in the mail (and it IS a beauty - sleek, modern, slim design with easy-access controls, and a small sized head that easily reaches into those back corners of the mouth) I was impressed with its good looks. And when I used it for the first time that night, I was beyond impressed. I had been expecting a loud, buzzing, invasive shake-up that would have me chucking it across the bathroom. Instead, I found it to be much, much quieter than expected, and although it took a little adjustment to get used to the feeling of the sonic power, it was immediately clear to me that being open to change was completely worth it!

    The timer ensured that I'm actually cleaning my teeth for the dentist-approved amount of time - a first for many of us, I'd say. And I loved the option of having 2 modes of cleaning - a regular setting, and a sensitive setting for other areas of the mouth (like the tongue, cheeks, or tender spots) that need a little TLC. I have a touchy spot near my top molars that my old, manual toothbrush has not been kind to, and so I was very pleasantly surprised to find that the Oral-B Pulsonic was able to clean that area without causing any pain! I used the precision tip (this extra brush head is included in the package!) and the sensitive setting for this area, and was relieved to know that this sensitive area that I had probably been avoiding for too long, was finally getting the attention and care it deserves.

    I love that the Oral-B Pulsonic isn't heavy in my hand, that it charges in its own recharging base, so I don't have to fuss around with battery-replacement, and that it beeps every 30 seconds, to remind me to move onto the next quadrant of my mouth. This is Brushing For Dummies, basically, and the result is the cleanest teeth I've ever had, outside of the dentist's chair! I get that "post-professional-cleaning" feeling, with none of the pain or hassle, and I can only imagine that my dentist is going to be over the moon at my next appointment!

    A huge thumbs up from me on this product - I'm a convert! The price-tag is still below other similar toothbrushes, making the Oral-B Pulsonic a good value - especially considering the cost of a professional cleaning, and the fact that we only get one set of teeth! - and my feeling is that once you've given it a try, you won't be able to go back to your two dollar toothbrush. In this case, you really *do* get what you pay for.

    First of all, I was immediately impressed by the design of this toothbrush when I saw it in the box. It looked sleeker than other electric toothbrushes I've seen. And when i used it, I found the slim design to be really nice to hold and use as well. It was really light-weight and not at all bulky. I have tried both Braun and Sonicare in the past, and both were a lot heavier and more awkward to use/hold. I loved this toothbrush for other reasons too - it made my teeth feel so clean! I loved the settings and I loved the timer. It was really easy on my gums too - very nice-feeling bristles. Overall, compared to other electric toothbrushes I've tried and even just without any comparison, I would say this is a great electric toothbrush and I would recommend him with confidence!!

    I found the Oral=B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush to be great to use! It made my teeth feel as clean as when I visit the dentist! It was very easy to use, and didn't hurt my teeth. In the past, I have had sensitive teeth, and sometimes using my regular toothbrush would irritate my gums. However, this toothbrush didn't hurt my gums at all - just cleaned my teeth! I like the different options on the Toothbrush, a regular setting and a sensitive setting. I tried the sensitive setting once, but used the regular setting the rest of the time. I also like that it comes with two different brush options (one for teeth and one for gum cleaning, like a sulca brush). I would definitely purchase this product for future use - I like it better than my previous regular toothbrush. The overall feeling of clean after using this brush for the recommended minimum of 2 minutes is fantastic!

    I was super excited to be selected to review the Oral B Pulsonic toothbrush as part of the product review club. I have owned other power toothbrushes in the past....both Oral B and other brands. I am very impressed with the Oral B Pulsonic toothbrush! This is by far the best power brush I have had the pleasure of using. I love that this product powerful enough to significantly remove surface stains from my teeth and make them look whiter. I also appreciate that it has settings for sensitive teeth and gum cleaning. I love the slim design of this toothbrush, I agree with other reviewers that the slim design makes it comfortable to hold and makes ease of use better than other power toothbrushes. I will highly recommend this product to friends and family! I am thoroughly impressed :)

    When I first opened the box to the Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush, my very first impression was the size of the brush. I have had electric tooth brushes in the past and always thought they were large, clunky, and heavy. The Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush is light, slim, and feels similar to a regular toothbrush in your hand.

    I must admit, when I first received the Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush I had no idea it was supposed to whiten teeth. After my first few brushes with the brush I could have sworn I used a teeth whitening product. I couldn't believe my eyes when I checked the toothbrush packaging; the brush is designed to whiten your teeth in two weeks by removing up to 94% of surface stains. I would definitely say I noticed a huge improvement in the colour of my teeth and was pleasantly surprised that I could achieve this just by brushing!

    Despite being powerful enough to whiten my teeth, I found this brush surprisingly gentle and smooth. I would consider my mouth to be sensitive and bleeding gums can be a problem for me occasionally but I have not noticed any discomfort or bleeding while using this brush. I found my mouth feeling much cleaner than I would with my regular toothbrush and preferred the feeling in my mouth after brushing with this toothbrush compared to my regular toothbrush.

    The brush left my mouth feeling clean, smooth. and fresh. I love this toothbrush and would hands down recommend it to friends and family.

    I love my Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush. Sleek design and ease of use is amazing.
    I can take it to go and have the comfort of this powerful but gentle toothbrush with me for my trips (2 trips so far and another 2 in the next 2 weeks). And this week I'll be doing my christmas shopping and will buy couple for my in-laws and close friends. Sharing the love! Highly recommended!

    I have used the Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush for two weeks. At first I had to get used to the vibration in mouth. It did not take long to used to it. I loved the fact that I knew when I had been brushing for 30 seconds and then two minutes. I realized that I was not brushing my teeth long enough before using the Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush. The instructions were easy to follow and the toothbrush is not difficult to use. I have used my manual toothbrush during the two week period that I used the power toothbrush. I can honestly say that I definitely prefer the Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush. My teeth don't feel like they are getting as clean with my manual toothbrush as they do with the Oral-B. The only drawback is the price. I did not know how much the toothbrush cost before I went to the grocery store. I am glad that I was lucky enough to be selected by the Chick Advisor Product Review Club to review the Oral-B Pulsonic power toothbrush. I hope it lasts for a long time. I know I will have to purchase replacement brushes.

    As someone who has used a manual toothrbrush all her life, I was very excited to test the Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush. Looks wise, it's very slim and modern looking and fits unobtrusively into my bathroom's decor. If fits very comfortably in my hands, and is lightweight and easy to maneuver. Since I wasn't sure how powerful the pulsing would be, I initially used the toothbrush as the "sensitive" setting, but since have graduated to the "clean" setting. At first, having a device that cleans your teeth in a vibrating/pulsing motion instead of the standard up and down and back and forth took some getting used to, but my teeth have never felt cleaner. The bonus is that I don't get the bleeding gums that I sometimes get when I brush too hard manually. I also really like using the precision tip brush head to get into those hard to reach areas at the back of my mouth that sometimes are difficult to get a floss to .
    After using this for the last week, my manual toothbrush has been sadly neglected and will now have a new role of cleaning the grout in my bathroom. There is no way that I would go back to using a manual toothbrush when the Oral-B does such an excellent cleaning job with way less effort on my part.

    I was thrilled to receive an Oral-B Pulsonic toothbrush for review by ChickAdvisor for the opportunity to test if this product lived up to all of its claims. I have been using this toothbrush for just a little over one week as a replacement for my regular manual toothbrush. I have tried various electric toothbrushes in the past, but the positive results from this product have been so advantageous that I am unlikely to return to a manual toothbrush.

    The design of the toothbrush is very beneficial. It is lightweight and very slim, making it easy to manoeuvre and comfortable to use. The brush head is shaped more like a traditional toothbrush (not circular like other electric toothbrushes), which I personally prefer. The bristles are not too hard or soft, just right for my preferences. The sonic vibrations are different from the motion that I have experienced with other similar products, but are incredibly effective at giving a thorough cleaning of the teeth and gums, without causing any discomfort. I have mildly sensitive teeth and gums and love the option of choosing between the two settings (clean and sensitive). The timer is an added feature that indicates with a sound when you should switch between areas and upon proper time completion, thus making the experience even more enjoyable. I must admit that I was a little sceptical about the claims of removing 94% of surface stains and thus whitening teeth, but despite only having used it for a little over a week, I have already noticed dramatic results. My teeth do not only appear whiter, but are also left feeling like they were professionally cleaned. The Oral-B Pulsonic comes with a convenient size docking charger as well as an additional precision tip head that I have found to be quite effective at removing stains from the harder to reach areas. The device stays charged for a reasonable amount of time, I took it along for a weekend trip and did not have the need to bring the charger along.

    The results from using the Oral-B Pulsonic toothbrush have proven to me that this product does indeed live up to all of its claims. It may be small in size, but the results are grand! The only downfall to this product is that it cost significantly more than a regular toothbrush at $69.99, but the long term benefits of this product are well worth the money spent. I have already bought two of these as gifts, and I am definitely impressed enough by the results to recommend it to anyone looking for an effective alternative to a manual toothbrush.
