Waterpik Sonic-Fusion Professional Flossing, Electric Toothbrush & Water Flosser Combo in One, SF-02, White

I'll leave my review of the version 1 Sonic-Fusion below. Although I only purchased the original Sonic-Fusion about a year ago, i found that it improved by quarterly periodontal visits dramatically. Now, with the release of version 2.0 which seemed to fix the issues I had with the original unit, I felt I had to upgrade. Somewhat extravagant based on the price but -- cost per use. I happy to report that the upgrade is real. The dramatic increase in brush vibration speed (even at the lower speed setting) and the larger brush head size team up to make this much closer to my previously beloved Sonicare toothbrush. Although I didn't see it stated, it also seems that the brush has stiffer bristles, an added plus. Perhaps just because my older versio had gotten such good use, the force of the waterpik even seems better for a given setting. Can't comment on longevity issues with the unit yet but I never had problems with my version 1. This is clearly the best dental cleaning system for me now. I'm not saying that this is better than a Sonicare with separate Waterpik and actual flossing, but for me, with my poor adherence to dentist advice, this has made me brush and Waterpik floss on a very regular basis and I'm certain my check-ups will be even better with this new system. Thanks for the improvements, Waterpik. Here's my old review of version 1: This could have been great. Unfortunately, the toothbrush action is quite poor and very loud. As a longtime user of Phillips Sonicare toothbrushes and Waterpic water flossers, I'd hoped this would be a great merger of the two, taking up less space, and, more importantly, enforcing my water flossing with each brushing -- something I've not been good at sticking to. This does that but Here are the reasons for the three star rating: Pros: - Does a great job of helping me keep up with my water flossing each time I brush - The water flossing is absolutely equivalent to my much larger, free-standing Waterpic model - The controls are easy to use and allow me to brush, then floss while brushing (and you can do the water flossing alone if desired) - The whole unit takes up less space on my bathroom counter than the Sonicare and the water flosser I used to have. Cons: - The toothbrushing aspect of this is definitely subpar compared to a Phillips Sonicare. - The action of the toothbrush is quite anemic compared to the Sonicare. - The bristles of the toothbrush are quite soft as well. - On top of this, when the toothbrush is turned on it is very noisy compared with the Sonicare - The fact that "sonic" is in the name of this product is, therefore, quite misleading. - One additional problem: the lights on the toothbrush that indicate state of charge are bright white LEDs. They brightly illuminate my bathroom at night and spill into my bedroom. No more dark bedroom at night since buying this. Despite the low rating, I plan to continue using this because of the increased convenience that combining the two systems gives me. It could have been perfect but, alas, is not.

SUPER Fantastic! I have both complete upper/lower dental implants and this is impeccable for keeping my mouth clean, fresh and free of problems with food getting lodged! Easy to use, intensity ranges from 1-10 (hint-I currently use 6-6 1/2 setting which is plenty strong to remove everything in between and underneath). You can use water or your favorite mouthwash to floss. Brushing is easy - you can choose to just brush your teeth, just floss or do both simultaneously! Little learning curve based on the shape of your jaw and how to exactly hold the angle of the brush to get the most effective cleaning. The only con for me is my outlet is to the left of the sink and I am right handed so I have to hold the hose aside or it hangs in the way of the water flowing from my mouth. Other than that...no complaints...worth every penny...easy...works well. EXTREMELY HAPPY WITH MY PURCHASE!!!

I love this product. I wish I'd had one years ago. Lives up to all its claims: cleans my teeth better than manual brushing & flossing. The water-flossing didn't set off any pain or sensitivity around gumline recession, which was my biggest concern, and I had the water-power control knob set at 7 out of 10. It's my first time ever using an electric toothbrush or waterpik product, because I was skeptical about any added benefit. I stand corrected. It's easy, the white unit is compact and fits well on my vanity sink counter. I brushed and flossed twice the first time I used it, because it was the first time in years brushing was pleasant and felt good, not painful. I usually floss first then brush, and haven't yet tried to brush and floss at the same time. Only surprise is that the water reservoir has to be filled every time you floss. It only holds enough water for 60 seconds of flossing at higher pressure. I actually don't mind this, because I'd rather use fresh water each time anyway to keep the unit clean. I'm sold, and would highly recommend.

This toothbrush is one-of-a-kind and comes with two brush tips, so you only really need one unit for two people. It’s so cool how you can brush and floss at the same time with adjustable flossing pressure. The flossing function is unlike anything I’ve ever used. It gets difficult food like popcorn out of your teeth in five seconds. As other reviewers have mentioned, you must use the floss function over the sink a few times until you get the hang of it, otherwise you will have water everywhere. What I personally didn’t like about the brush was how small and powerful the brush tip is. I felt like the small size kept the brush from cleaning more areas of my teeth and gums. The powerfulness of brush was also too much for me as I have very sensitive teeth and gums. Overall, I think it’s a great product, but needs bigger brush tips and adjustable functions for the power of the brush itself. I think I will get their lower-end model that just has the flosser instead.

I have used this for 5 days. It works amazingly well, even though some of my back teeth are so close together, it's hard to get ribbon floss between them. I brush and then brush/floss and, when I used ribbon floss to check, there was nothing left between my teeth! I have had ribs, fried chicken, candy with almonds and marshmallows, salad pizza. Everything flosses out. I will only use ribbon floss a couple of times a week to make a "C" around a tooth to get the front and back of the tooth flossed, not just between them. Who knows? My hygienest might say I don't even need the regular floss, that this will do a good enough job. Make sure to use warm water (when you can) in the flosser reservoir, so you don't shock your teeth with cold. My only concern was reading reviews where the flosser quit working, or the brush quit or it wouldn't recharge. I hope I have none of those problems! For the price, it should work well for a long time!

Bought this particular unit because I travel overseas a lot and wanted something I could use with 110V-240V. I've only used it on 110V so far, but it's safe for up to 240V so will test it out on my next trip. Absolutely love that you can easily detach the toothbrush part from the base unit for travel. (The toothbrush still vibrates... you just can't use the waterpik feature unless it's connected to the base.) I went on a 5 day trip and used it at least twice a day without charging it the whole trip, and the battery to vibrate the toothbrush was still going strong. The only downside IMO is that the replacement heads are a bit more expensive than I expected... just under $25 for 2 heads that you're supposed to replace every 3 months. I likely will use mine a bit longer as long as it's still in good condition. (After a month of 2-3 times a day use, the head I have on there still looks new.) But the whole unit is so great, I still give it 5 stars overall. Absolutely love this sonic-fusion water-pik. Ideal for those of us who travel, particularly internationally where there are varying electricity voltages, and really anyone else who just wants an "all-in-one" electronic toothbrush and flosser. Definitely recommend!

I am a dental hygienist and was excited to see this product developed. I love the duel action with waterpik and electric toothbrush simultaneously. My husband started braces in December. I purchased this for him as I know how difficult ortho home care can be. He has enjoyed using it and feels it cleans more effective then he can do with standard brushing. I strongly recommend waterpiks for patients in braces, elderly or limitations with dexterity, people with restorations such as dental implants and bridges, and individuals struggling with gingivitis or periodontitis (gum disease). These work great!!! Very user friendly, I did not read the manual on set up or use. A couple of things to note: start with a lower setting like a 4 while you are learning to use it. A setting between 6-8 is effective to remove plaque and food deposit. If you have sensitive teeth use warm water in your reservoir. I suggest pouring one or two tablespoons of mouth rinse such as Listerine diluted with water into the reservoir. Only turn on and off the waterpik when it is in your mouth (I squirted water everywhere the first time I used it. It was comical). It takes a few times using it to feel confident with it. Be patient with yourself.

This is an awesome product if flossing isnt your thing. Its easy, powerful and comfortable on teeth making them feel and look clean longer than brushing alone

Though the brush head works the flosser did not function
