This is a pretty big endorsement - is there one in particular you like?


Not OP, but I got one of these for free from a colleague 5 years ago and it's still going strong: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002HWS9FW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_...

Paired with a good charger and an extra set of rechargeable batteries it's a joy to use. Best health "investment" I've done in recent years.


I think mine's Braun? Its only extra feature is that it buzzes a bit when you should switch quadrants, then several times when you've done enough (just a simple timer). I'm usually lazy/rushed and only do half a "cycle" and my teeth feel like I've just had a dentist's cleaning, just about all the time. They make Bluetooth enabled ones and all kinds of other BS, but I don't care about any of that. Wasn't expensive, I think $40-50 and I've had it a couple years. Little wireless charging base you place it on, batteries last enough for a few days though if you're taking a short trip and don't want to take the base, and the failure mode if they die is that you still have a normal toothbrush. You do have to replace the brush part every so often, Costco carries big packs of them and I think there are third party ones available cheaper.
