Customer Ratings & Reviews

This power flosser was super easy to setup and works great. Just plug it in, adjust the settings and plug in the desired tip and you're ready to go. The directions were also really easy to follow, and you're up and running inside 5 minutes. I can also really feel my teeth being cleaned. I floss with regular was floss first and then the power flosser gets rid of everything else, leaving your teeth feeling really clean. I would recommend using warmer water as cold water can be uncomfortable. After several days of use, I can definitely say that it does a better job than was floss alone. Without a doubt, my mouth and teeth feel cleaner than before. There are also several intensity settings depending on your comfort preference of gum/teeth sensitivity. Coupled with multiple tips, there are a lot of options for using the power flosser. I highly recommend the Philips Sonicare Power Floser, it's a great complement to your toothbrushing routine, both morning and night. It is also compact enough to sit on a smaller vanity or countertop.

Review for Philips Sonicare Power Flosser 7000, HX3911 - White I’ll admit it, I’m not great at remembering to floss. The hygienist does it for me twice a year, and I seem to be good for about a week after my appointment, but then I slack off. I thought having a power flosser would be a great alternative to neglecting my dental health. Before trying it, I thought it would be loud and messy, but neither of these things proved to be true. The Philips 7000 was SO much quieter than I expected. and the feeling is refreshing, not messy. The quad tip was better for trying to clean the back side of my teeth, but doesn’t seem to be as effective at flossing between them as the standard nozzle. There are a lot of different modes and accessories, but besides the ones for more sensitive gums, the standard settings seem very adequate, especially since you already adjust the intensity to your desired level. That said, it seems like all of the options are good and it certainly gets the job done well.

I’m one of those people whose teeth are pretty tight, so flossing has always been a necessity for me. Flossing is not one of those activities that you look forward to doing, but there’s really no substitute for it. That’s why I was interested in the Power Flosser 7000 by Philips. It promises to provide an easier, superior alternative to flossing that is also better for the health of your gums. Setting up the Power Flosser is easy. Just fill the tank with lukewarm water, choose a nozzle, insert it into the handle and you’re ready to go. There are 4 modes to choose from: clean, deep clean, sensitive and massage. There are also 3 nozzle choices: standard, quad stream and comfort. The standard nozzle is what you might expect: a plastic tip with a single stream of water. The other two nozzles add rubber tips to increase comfort and make it easier to position it on your teeth. The difference in the quad stream is that it splits the water stream into 4, arranged in an “X” pattern. I don’t have sensitive gums, so I didn’t find a huge difference between the nozzles, but I liked the quad stream best. The other two seem to give a little more control as far as directing the water where you want it, but I got good results using all 3 nozzles. When I first started using the Power Nozzle 7000, it was a bit awkward. I wasn’t prepared for just how much water is expelled by the nozzle. After the first time or two, I figured out how much I needed to lean over the sink and how much to use my lips to control the water flow, so as not to make a big mess. The more I used it, the better I got. The 4 different modes should allow just about anyone to get what they need. The sensitive mode is more gentle, as you would expect, but it’s still effective at removing food from between your teeth. Deep clean is the most interesting, as it includes both strong and gentle pulses of water for cleaning your teeth. The clean and massage modes also include a pacer, where the water pauses every 30 seconds to let you know it’s time to move to another section of your mouth. The deep clean and sensitive modes don’t include the pacer, but you can use the brief pause as the flow varies in intensity to move to the next tooth. The unit is well constructed, but there was one design decision that I didn’t like. The button for ejecting the nozzle is right on the back of the wand, where you naturally want to rest your thumb. I accidentally ejected the nozzle during use several times before I retrained myself not to put my thumb there. There is a slide button on the front of the want for turning the water on and off. A push button might have been easier, but the slide leaves no question as to which way you need to move it. Thoughtfully, there is an intensity dial, allowing you to dial in the level of intensity that is right for you. That’s important when you think about the massaging features of the Power Flosser. You’re massaging your gums when you use the Flosser, not just in massage mode. This is perhaps the biggest reason to use this over standard dental floss. No piece of string will provide the benefits of a massage to your gums. To see whether the Power Flosser was actually effective at removing food, I used it right after meals. To check it, I immediately flossed with regular floss to see if there was anything left behind for the floss to find, but I did not see anything left behind by the Power Flosser. The Power Flosser is miles ahead of standard dental floss, both in ease of use and the benefits to your teeth and gums. But what about those pre-loaded flossers that come in packs of 50 or 100? Just comparing flossing, it’s a bit of a toss-up. I can get good results out of my 5-cent plastic flosser, and they’re also a lot easier to use than standard floss. But no string-based approach to cleaning your teeth can provide the benefits of gentle massage on your gums. This is the part that I’m interested in over the course of time. If you’re considering the Power Flosser 7000, you’ll want to do a cost-benefit analysis to see if you think it’s worth buying a unit such as this. If you improve the overall health of your mouth, then it’s worth it, but I’m not sure I’d suggest buying it only for a cooler way to floss your teeth.

I must admit, I am not very good at remembering to floss my teeth. Despite that, I've never had a cavity (knock on wood) and no gingivitis. That being said, I constantly strive to be better with flossing. Enter the Power Flosser 7000. The flosser is very easy to set and use. It's really self-explanatory. If you have even mildly sensitive teeth, I recommend filling the reservoir with warm water... not cold or lukewarm water. By the time lukewarm water enters your mouth, it feels on the cooler side. I love having different nozzles to use. I feel the nozzle without the rubber tip is best for getting in between your teeth. The nozzles with the rubber tip work really well for along the gum line. The other really nice feature about this power flosser is the 4 flossing modes, 10 intensities. This allows you to really customize your cleaning experience. Filling the reservoir to the max line gives you the perfect amount of cleaning time, allowing you to the ability to clean your entire mouth. The only thing I'm still working on is not making a mess. I really have to concentrate on leaning over the sink and tilting my head enough so that the water doesn't run out of my mouth and back down the wand's cord. Overall, I feel like this power flosser is giving me a more effective flossing experience that regular flossing... especially in the hard-to-reach areas.

Many years ago I had a competing brand's product but it was quickly put back into the cabinet under the sink, never to be heard from again. It was loud, messy, and difficult to use. In comes the Phillips Sonicare Power Flosser 7000. I had some reservations before using it due to my previous experience. Were my fears warranted? The Phillips Sonicare Power Flosser is a self-contained unit (other than the storage case for the attachments) and this is something that I truly appreciate very much in such a product. There is nothing worse than a crucial part becoming missing. Good on you Phillips! The Sonicare Power Flosser itself is very sleek and will fit into any bathroom decor with its simple white color and rounded high-tech-looking parts and buttons. Before using the Sonicare Power Flosser 7000, I used regular ol' floss to get the job done. I thought that was sufficient. Boy, was I wrong! This baby is powerful enough to shoot free stubborn pieces of Barbecue Ribs caught in/in-between teeth effortlessly and gentle enough not to disturb my dental work consisting of multiple crowns and veneers. The criss-cross quad stream head, I do believe is the secret to the effortless nature that the Sonicare Power Flosser 7000 breezes through all of these dental assignments. The product from the "usual suspects" generally just shoots a single stream of water. While that may be slightly effective for some uses, it doesn't do what the Sonicare Power Flosser does! Plaque and other debris are no problem. I appreciate that the handle neatly and securely affixes to the product via a magnet. This looks better and saves counter space. The same with the cord/hose. Everything has its "place" and nothing gets in the way. So much better than other products I have tried! When using the Sonicare Power Flosser 7000, you will be given a gentle nudge to move on to the next section of teeth. This to me is super cool. The functionality couldn't be simpler, choose a mode, and strength - and insert your desired attachment - and you are good to go! I appreciate the dial on the Sonicare Power Flosser because it lets me "dial-up" the force for when I need to blast annoying stuck food particles away and dial it down when I am cleansing around delicate dental work. I know it is not recommended generally to use anything but water in the massive tank (which I found to be more than sufficient in that it didn't run out even when I was doing a super clean) but I found that adding a splash of alcohol-free mouthwash to the tank (which Phillips Sonicare makes, just google it) gives an extra freshening boost. You can obviously use any brand of mouthwash. But I prefer the above as it tastes/feels exactly like the kind my dentist uses. The Sonicare Power Flosser 7000 has become a part of my daily dental hygiene ritual. Not only does it work a million times better than that competing product (that is still under the sink), but I feel it does a much better job than manual flossing. If you want the confidence of having cleaner teeth, and the peace of mind that you are doing your part to fight the gum disease known as gingivitis (dun dun DUNNNNN) the Sonicare Power Flosser 7000 is for you. I truly believe the Sonicare Power Flosser 7000 should be in every bathroom worldwide! That's how impressed I am with it!

The Philips Sonicare 7000 Series Power Flosser is quiet overall, easy to use, and superior in effectiveness for everyday dental maintenance. I like how it is compact in size and does not overwhelm the small sink in my bathroom. Water flossing is a great alternative to regular flossing because while it can clean hard to reach places, it is not as abrasive as traditional floss. I typically use the water flosser and then follow up by brushing my teeth as normal. This flosser comes with 3 different nozzles which all provide different benefits. I particularly like the quad stream nozzle because it directs water into a cross-shaped stream that is able to effortlessly penetrate stubborn plaque. I also appreciate that Philips included a storage case for the nozzles not being used. The power flosser has 10 different intensity settings and 4 different modes – Clean, Deep Clean, Sensitive, and Massage. The user can tell which setting is chosen by the LED light indicator. I like the pacer feature that is activated while the flosser is in Clean or Massage mode because it indicates when you should move to the next section of the mouth. Initial setup is very easy with this flosser and the directions and parts are all clearly labeled. I like the magnetic dock feature where the handle is stored on the base. If you dock the handle, the water flow is automatically paused which is convenient. The reservoir and lid should be cleaned once a week and thankfully both are easy to maintain. You may gently remove the reservoir from the unit and then may either hand wash with warm water and mild soap or even use your dishwasher. The exterior of the base and handle can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap. After removing the nozzle from the handle, it is advised to routinely rinse the tip under warm water. Which I found myself doing... sometimes. Philips Sonicare recommends replacing the nozzles every 6 months, but I feel as though they can last longer if you’re not using them on an everyday basis. In conclusion, I am very pleased and impressed with this water flosser and am thankful it is now part of my daily hygiene routine. Do keep in mind that water flossing does not replace brushing your teeth or routine dentist visits - it is meant to provide added control of bacteria and plaque buildup.

I've been consistent with flossing each day, but it's always been kind of a nuisance. My teeth are pretty close together so I have to really work on getting the floss in between them and it frequently breaks the floss. My big hands and fingers don't make it any easier, either, so I thought I'd try this power flosser out. I was pretty skeptical at first that it could replace a good old fashioned flossing, but it seems to be doing the trick. For several days now I've tested eating blueberries, chicken, popcorn, and other foods that always get stuck in my teeth. I run the power flosser, then as a check I go ahead and floss like usual. Each time the power flosser has succeeded in clearing everything and the traditional floss comes up empty, so I'm ready to admit power flossing is the way to go. The unit is light weight and small enough that I can easily put it up in a cabinet after each use so it's not another thing sitting on the counter all the time. The water reservoir is super easy to fill, rinse out, and dry. The one drawback to its light weight is it usually takes two hands to turn it on--one to hold the unit and one to push the power button. But once that's done, you can select one of the four modes and set the power level then you're ready to go. You can turn the flow off and on with a slide switch on the wand. When you're done, the hose coils back nicely into the recess in the unit and the wand sticks magnetically on the holder. When it's running, it's also fairly quiet unlike an older model/brand my wife used to use. It's not exactly whisper quiet, but it's definitely not obnoxious and you hardly notice it once you get used to it. It's sort of like a loud purring, so my cats kind of like it. I tried all three nozzles, but I've settled on the "quad stream" one as my favorite. I don't know if it's the case, but it seems to put out more water in the stream. It's also easier to touch against my teeth which makes it a little easier to tell where you're blasting so you don't skip any spaces. Unless I'm doing something wrong, you do get water over your hand and on the wand but it's easy to wash off and keep clean. I'd say it's a vast improvement over trying to floss the old way with string, though. I'll find out at my next dentist checkup if they agree.

I wanted to love this, but I really don’t feel like it’s up to par with other Sonicare products. I’ve had Sonicare products including my current power toothbrush that I really enjoy using and feel like truly do an exceptional job of keeping my teeth clean and healthy. However, I really don’t get that same sense of quality from this product. It looks nice and is a good compact size, so that it doesn’t take up too much counter space. Set up was also super easy and was finished in seconds. I do like that, but to be honest, that’s where the the pros pretty much end for me. This product is called a power flosser, but it is a water pick. And it’s not a very powerful water pick. It has four cleaning modes, clean, deep clean, sensitive, and massage. To be honest these seem like nothing more than a marketing gimmick to me. For example, the deep clean mode simply pulses and produces less water. I found it an incredibly irritating setting to use because I felt like I had to keep going back over places to make sure I didn’t miss anything. The sensitive mode was even worse as it literally reduced the water pressure and then increased it back-and-forth. I suppose if you really are just trying to moisten your teeth (??), it’s useful, but otherwise not so much. Lastly, you can adjust the water pressure settings so that it sprays harder. Although it goes from 1 to 10, I found that I had to have it set on 10 all the time to feel like it was at all effective and actually cleaning my teeth. I’ve had other water picks where you had to turn it down because it was almost too much pressure. I would rather have that so that I have options versus having to have it cranked up to the max all the time for it to even kind of work. There are better water picks out there and this was a miss for Sonicare in my opinion.

Its a great flosser; very good variety of pressure levels, easy to fill, holds a good amount of water so you dont have to keep refilling. Only thing i would change is the reach of the flosser from the rest of the device, but overall good buy.

I bought this for my wife and she absolutely loves how it cleans her teeth.
