-Powerful spray
-3 different nozzles

Con:
-Cumbersome and messy
-The pump rattles
-Tank empties quickly
The water flosser is like a mini power washer for your gums. Even at low settings it’s powerful enough to clean off the plaque and at higher settings it can get food particles out. It’s also good for power cleaning your sink. It’s recommended that you start at the lowest level and work your way up, and in the week that I’ve had it, I’m still on level 4. At higher levels it starts to feel uncomfortable on my gums. It has a max of 10 levels and 4 settings for Clean, Deep Clean, Sensitive, and Massage. Some of the settings will pulse as it sprays, but I generally stick with Clean. Even though it’s strong, I still use floss afterwards. Either I miss some spots or the spray isn’t hitting the tight spaces between some teeth.
The handle has a button to turn on the spray, but it also has a magnetic clip that will automatically turn off the spray. The tube is coiled and is self stored in the base so it’s kept tidy and neat. There’s three nozzles included. The standard one sprays one stream, the comfort one sprays two streams to the side, and the last is a four way stream for quicker coverage.
While it’s good, it’s not without some drawbacks. It is somewhat cumbersome and gets a bit messy. It’s spraying a lot of water in your mouth and it’ll splash a lot. The tube is short so the pump has to be placed right next to the sink, which can take up room. The tank can drain quickly and if you’re not used to it, you’ll probably have to refill it. Lastly it will rattle while in use and can be somewhat loud.
The brush is good. It may not be the highest end model, but it has what you need with three settings and three levels. It fits with all the models of brush heads and each brush head has a chip that will select the best mode. I tried two types but both just selected Clean. The brush also has a feature that will stop and vibrate the head if you’re applying too much pressure.
The brush also can sync up with the Sonicare app that will keep track of your brushing habits and history and offer tips. It’s a nice feature to have, though I didn’t use it much. It also tells you when to replace the brush head.
This seems like a good investment for oral care. It’ll take some getting used to and it’s not that convenient to use but both the flosser and brush does seem like it’s doing a good job at cleaning. It’s hard to tell how well it’ll work long term, but from what I’ve seen it’s powerful enough to really power clean your gums.

My Dentist Is Going to Love Me!

This is my second Sonicare toothbrush but first power flosser of any kind. The first Sonicare I gave to my son because his dentist recommended that he needed one. I am a bad brusher and flosser. What I like about the toothbrush is that it is set to make you brush your teeth for 2 minutes, with a pause every 20 seconds telling you to do another third of either your upper or lower teeth. I never have enough patience to do it that long with a manual brush. I forgot how CLEAN my teeth feel after this brushing, almost as if I had just come from the dentist.
The toothbrush can sync with your phone (my older model did not do this) with the Sonicare app. It can keep track of how often you are brushing and if you are applying the correct amount of pressure. It’s neat that it can sync this data with Apple Health on iOS to go along with my smart scale, sleep tracker, blood pressure cuff, step counter, and all the other data that’s getting pushed there. The app will also keep track of the brush heads you are using and when it’s time to replace them. Included in the box is one ‘premium plaque control’ head.
For the flosser, I was pleasantly surprised that Phillips was wise enough to put a toothbrush charger on the base of the flosser meaning you only need to plug in 1 cord. There are 4 different cleaning modes. I started off with Sensitive because I am a terrible flosser (I tell my dental hygienist every visit that the last time I flossed was when she last saw me!) so I thought a standard clean might be too vigorous for me but Sensitive was doing too little, so I settled on Clean mode and about 4 days in now I have it at about 5-6 intensity. It is so much better than wrapping string around your fingers and doing it the manual way. Quicker too! The instructions say to let the water drain out of your mouth as you floss but I have yet to master this as it tends so I have to pause it and spit every few seconds. Although more than once now I’ve forgotten that it’s squirting high pressure water and pull it out of my mouth only to squirt myself or the wall before I remember to pause it! I’ve tried all three nozzles and really any are fine but the quad stream is probably my favorite.
Pros:
Feels like a trip to the dentist
Flosser Base has Integrated Toothbrush Charger (1 plug to wall)
Flosser comes with 3 nozzles
Quiet
Tank is easy to refill
4 Cleaning Modes @ 10 intensity levels
Includes case for all three flossing nozzles
And includes Travel Case for toothbrush and two heads
Brush heads can be found at any store
Cons:
Flossing might take a bit of getting used to
I see these Sonicare demo units in my dentist office every time I go. I can’t wait to tell her I am using both the flosser and the brush and see if my gum health has improved since last visit. Highly recommended if you care about oral hygiene!

Good Flosser Brush Combo

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The Flosser and Brush were easy to setup, and the brush had a decent charge out of the box. It would be helpful if it included one or more replacement heads since they can be harder to find at a decent price.
It includes the brush/flosser system, a second brush travel base/charger and case, 3 different floss heads with case, instructions.
The flosser combo is plug and play with the attached brush charger on the side. The water reservoir on top is removable to fill with water. There are 4 floss options with 10 intensity options for each.
I like the water flosser since I have a problem regularly flossing and this makes it easier for me to floss a couple times a week.
When finished flossing you have to empty the reservoir - it will leak if you do not (my only real negative for the system).
Brush works great, holds good charge. It's supposed to have smart cleaning to adjust to your brush pattern. I cannot tell any difference from previous electric brushes. The travel case and charger is a nice option. I have not left it off the charger to test how many brushes it will go without a charge.
All in all a very good system.

I've been using cheap old $2/6pack of brushes for 20 years. Luckily have pretty good oral hygiene, but soft and sensitive teeth. The hygienist barely has to remove any plaque and was surprised that two years ago I hadn't had a cleaning in 22 years!
I mainly wanted a water pick as the motorized toothbrush wasn't something I thought I'd need. Glad to find out that I was mistaken.
One thing you really need to do is get used to the vibration. The Sonicare feels like a deep tissue massage for you teeth. The first time was quite a shock as it fell like my whole skull was vibrating. After a few more sessions I got used to it. The toothbrush has multiple settings and two are mainly time settings so I stick with the default 2min brush. Every 20 seconds it pauses to let you know it's time to change quadrants. I barely brush a minute though and my teeth are smooth and shiny like a fresh tooth polishing.
There is an app that can connect but I don't see its worth as all it does is tell you to buy a new head or how long you've been brushing. I've never been very OCD about tooth brushing that I'd want to see what I did 2 years ago on Tuesday night, lol. So I stick with "dumb" brushing.
I have a cheap water pick and that thing jets waters so hard that I have to make sure I aim it right to I'm tasting blood. The Sonicare Power Flosser doesn't seem to have the same flesh ripping pressure, but it offers enough to pop out stuck chicken meat without a problem. I do kinda wish it would push harder, but i don't think it's really necessary. It's mainly because I'm used to the extra pressure from the old unit.
So far I'm happy with this Sonicare Dental system and hope to find out in a year if it's worth stick with or going back to my cheap brushes. I don't think I'll be going back though!

I've used MANY different electric toothbrushes before, but its always the same thing... I use them for a little while, then get tired of them and go back to my manual toothbrush...But I've never used a Sonicare before until now. Well, to say this feels different than my other electric toothbrushes is a big understatement. I had no idea what I was missing, or how thorough this thing was! You can actually FEEL it working... the vibrations were alarming at first, but now I don't even notice them.
You can adjust the intensity of the brush from Low, Medium, or High, but only if you find it necessary. I like the default settings so far and haven't had to mess with them. after the first use, I was like "Huh, I wonder if its really that much better than my old one". After about a week of using this, I don't have to ask that any more. My teeth feel cleaner, my breath is better, and I look forward to using this because of the results I've already seen!
This was my first time using a water flosser, so I think its fair to say there is a learning curve to make sure you don't spray down yourself or your bathroom mirror every time you use it, but after the 2nd day I no longer have to have a towel right there.... I'm getting better! But more importantly, my teeth FEEL better. I'm not sure if its better, recommended over regular floss, but I will say that its easier to use than regular floss and I believe it does a better, and more thorough job.
Very happy with this, and I've already asked my dentist about this product and he recommends it 100%!

I'm really enjoying this toothbrush kit. I've used quite a bit of electric toothbrushes and the Sonicare line is among the best IMO. I like how the whole kit doesn't take up a ton of my precious sink space and the double-duty utility of having an electric toothbrush AND a power flosser in one unit is very nice. The toothbrush tech handles brushing thoroughly with ease and the power flosser is surprising powerful. It can get messy but its just water and with a little practice you can get great results with little to no spills. The app tells you how efficiently you brushed and coaches you in weak areas to get you to cover all your teeth 100%. It will also tell you when you need a new brush head.
After a week of use, I can tell that my teeth feel much smoother and the toothbrush seems to find and remove every bit of food in your teeth. It's a way different experience than a manual toothbrush. With this Sonicare for instance, you don't brush your teeth. Instead, you simply hover the toothbrush over each tooth for about 10 seconds and the Sonicare breaks up and loosens the food particles. When you can combine that with the Power Flosser feature, you will keep a whiter and cleaner smile for sure. Once you use the Sonicare, you won't go back to regular brushing.

Powerful Combination

I have always been a little envious of my wife as she has always used the Philips Sonicare line compared to the Oral-B toothbrush I have used in the past, but upon using this system I am definitely convinced in making the right choice to switch to Philips Sonicare.
Firstly, right out of the box the setup of the product was extremely easy and you really don`t even need to use the instructions it is so simplistic, even if you have never used a water powered flosser before.
Everyone has probably used an electric toothbrush nowadays, but Philips takes it up a notch in a multitude of ways. Firstly, the look and feel make it seem like a premium product as it is not just cheap flimsy plastic. After getting past the cosmetics, the technology that Philips has packed into a toothbrush is definitely amazing. The Sonicare app is where this toothbrush starts to set itself apart as the toothbrush is Bluetooth and thus connects to the app in order to provide assistance with your brushing routine that entails the timing and pressure of the toothbrush along with also keeping track of the time until your toothbrush head needs replaced. The best part about the app though was that it was actually bug free on my IOS device (iPhone 13). Then finally in regard to the actual use and effectiveness it definitely was as expected, though different than the traditional Oral-B toothbrush I had been using as it had a different motion that I assume to be more effective as my teeth did have that clean feeling upon completion.
The second component was the water flosser, which was what I was most intrigued to use as I have always been a traditional floss sticks person. I will say that it was definitely an interesting experience as there is most certainly a technique to it as the first week or so of use you will have to be patient as excess water/mist will end up on the counter and it will take some time to get used to. However, after the first couple weeks it only takes about a minute and you`re good to go. The base was extremely quiet though and the multiple tips (especially the quad stream tip) was a great plus as it allowed a more personalized approach as opposed to just varying water intensities. The one qualm I did have with the flosser though was the cord as it was nice that it folds right back into the base and the magnetic back of the flosser was great, but the cord was very stiff and I did catch the base beginning to tip a couple times when the water level was becoming low. Additionally, there is that slight hassle to fill the reservoir up after each use, but compared to traditional flossing it is still easier though compared to my trusty floss sticks the verdict is still out until I can get some more use with the water flosser.
Overall, you really can`t go wrong with purchasing this product to take care of both your brushing and flossing needs. Yes, it is not perfect with the unsteady base at times and need to consistently fill up the reservoir, but the pros far outweigh the cons in that both the toothbrush and flosser allow an extremely personalized experience with the introduction of the Philips Sonicare app and the multitude of settings and heads within each individual item

Like most people, I have an electric toothbrush however, I had also been wanting to use a water flosser as I'm still using the string floss. I had bought a separate water pik before however it was pretty cheap and didn't really work well. Fast forward a couple years and my toothbrush need replacing. I saw this all-in-one unit and figured I'd give it a shot.
The toothbrush is pretty great in itself. I had a Philips electric toothbrush before and this was great to have again. Really great quality and worked great. I used to have an Oral-B however the Philips is really a much better option IMO.
The water flosser is taking a little bit getting used to however, I can it's way more effective than your typical string flossing. The water flosser has a couple different nozzles to play around with to see which one suits you best. The water pressure is quite good so it's no issue blasting away food particles or what not with this. I do see that I'll probably be filling up the water tank about once every couple days but that's not too big an issue.
This nice little combo was pretty much what I was looking for as far as "total" oral care/hygiene for me. Using both of these devices, I feel a bit more confident that I'm getting a really thorough cleaning which is nice. Hopefully, this will mean less dentist visits but only time will tell. If you're looking for a complete tooth cleaning system, this is definitely worth a look.

This toothbrush and glosser has a lot of power bending it. The 3 different cleaning setting ensures that it caters to what you are trying to achieve. One thing I recommend is putting the toothbrush in your mouth before starting your cleaning cycle. This was one mistake I made because the vibrations knocked all the toothpaste off of the toothbrush. The cleaning cycle on this toothbrush has a very intense vibration. The deep cleaning setting gives a robust vibration whereas the gum health setting massages the gums. I particularly like this setting because it addresses the teeth and the gums. It’s gentle enough especially considering my teeth sensitivity. The water pic portion of the tooth brush is very effective. Again, I advise putting it in your mouth and putting your face over the sink before you start. It splashes a lot. The water floss portion gets deep between your teeth and cleans the gums. Overall I give this toothbrush 5 stars. It is very effective at cleaning your gums and teeth.

I've been using an older Sonicare toothbrush in combination with an air flosser for a few years now and by and large have loved them, so when the opportunity to try a new and improved version of both came around I was quite excited. After spending a few days with the set I have to say that I still love the overall user experience and quality... but as often happens when moving to a more complicated and feature-rich product I've also found a lot more areas that could potentially be improved on.
Before I get into that though, I'd like to cover the highlights. Both the toothbrush and irrigator are attractive, sturdy, and thoughtfully laid out. Not needing two plugs to power both the flosser and the toothbrush is almost worth the price of admission alone. The brush is built for what I believe are their third generation of brush heads, but is still backwards compatible with the older first generation ones I already had. You also get a carrying case for both the spare flosser heads and the toothbrush, as well as a stand-alone charger you can bring with you if you plan to take it with you when you travel. I am a little puzzled why Philips designs their toothbrushes to have out of the box support for only three different cleaning modes when the ecosystem is built around four, though it's possible that this is simply a labelling issue rather than a qualitative one as I struggled to tell what the actual difference was between the "whiten" mode that my old brush had and the "deep clean+" mode this new one has instead, even though the instructions seem to imply that they are different features. If you've never used one of these electric toothbrushes or flossers before you should expect a bit of a transition period, as it can feel quite intense before you get used to it, but you do eventually get used to it in my experience. And both brush and flosser feature variable intensity controls to help you adapt as well, including an automated system on the brush that will gradually turn things up over several sessions to ease you into things. The flosser doesn't have the same automated process, but it does have a lot more options with ten different intensities, four different modes, and three different nozzle styles. Of the three I'd recommend the basic round nozzle for beginners, as it's the easiest to maneuver and understand, while you might want to wait to try out the new x-head until you've gotten a bit more proficient unless you don't mind accidentally spraying your bathroom from time to time. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the added power it brings, but I also know that I'm not nearly good enough with it to apply it properly yet.
Unfortunately while Philips has clearly accumulated a lot of experience in designing excellent dental hardware, their software experience still leaves a bit to be desired. It's not that it's bad, per se, so much as it is simply failing to live up to the standard set by the physical equipment. To give an example, earlier I talked about how there's a learning curve with both of these devices. Given that, it would seem obvious that the app would be designed to actively teach users in the best uses and practices for both parts of the kit. But it really doesn't do that. The manual tells you that brushing should be broken up into six segments, each one targeting a different set of teeth. It would seem like an obvious feature then to have the app define these segments and guide you through each one, perhaps highlighting the specific techniques for each that'll get you the best results. Instead all you get is a timer counting down the seconds until the brush automatically turns itself on to signal that you've carried out the recommended two minutes of brushing per session - which really doesn't feel like something that's worth pulling out my phone to have. And it doesn't connect to the flosser at all, which is particularly unfortunate as I feel it's the bit that would benefit the most from active guidance. What's slightly more galling is the fact that there is a tips and tricks area with a "how to use" button to press, but using it only shows you what's basically an ad for the higher end version of this brush that can apparently not only do what I mentioned above, but go so far as to point out specific teeth you should be working on. I get wanting to have some stuff be exclusive to the higher end products to justify their added expense, but giving us a map to reference without the active guidance (or just an instructional video that's actually relevant to the product we have) seems perfectly reasonable.
That being said, there are certainly other features in the app that I do appreciate. It offers fairly detailed information on the remaining lifespan of your brush head based on your use habits and how much pressure is actually being applied when you use it. And since this data is actually stored in a small chip on the brush itself, you don't even have to worry about confusing it if you're swapping heads for multiple users on a regular basis. I've also been appreciating the gentle reminders about how I can improve my brushing habits, which for once is NOT being delivered by an endless parade of passive aggressive push notifications.
Overall I'd recommend this set to anyone looking to improve their brushing habits (or monitor their kids') without having to be too overbearing about it.

Sonicare toothbrushes are amazing, hands down. I've used them for a long time and always loved how well they clean my teeth and let you know exactly how long you need to brush. I've always used the cheaper versions of Sonicare, so I was really excited to upgrade to this model with all of its different modes and the accompanied water pick.
In the box you get the toothbrush, the water pick, three heads for the water pick, and an extra charger so you can charge the toothbrush by itself or on the stand attached to the water pick. The whole system takes up way less room than I thought, so I've just left the whole system out on my counter to keep everything in close reach.
The toothbrush works great. The head on this version is different than my cheaper Sonicare and I like the way it feels on my teeth. I can tell the bristles are stiff enough to get under the gums, but not too stiff to be uncomfortable. The toothbrush also has several cleaning modes for regular cleaning, deep cleaning, and gum health along with 3 power settings for each. I can't say that I completely understand the difference between all the modes, but I can say that it is nice to have different power left settings so that I don't have the toothbrush rattling my teeth out of my head.
Just as other Sonicares you get subtle vibration indicators when it's time to switch between top and bottom teeth, it leaves very little thought to be had about brushing your teeth. The overall outcome is great, my teeth always feel clean and I never have to worry about anything getting left on my teeth.
The water flosser is a nice addition too. I haven't used one of these since I was a kid with braces, but it works fairly well. There are again different modes and power levels to use the floser along with different heads to either have a more powerful or softer jet of water to floss with. Supposedly it works better than floss, though I'm not sure. I definitely felt like it cleaned in between my teeth well, though it did take some getting used to and the experience of constantly spitting water in the sink wasn't the best.
Just to see how well the flosser did, I took regular floss to my teeth after using and still did get some plaque out from between my teeth. Not sure if it truly works as well as regular floss or it could be me needing to learn how to use it better.
Overall I really like the combo and think it will keep my teeth healthy and the added features from my cheaper Sonicare are nice to have and will come in handy if ever I feel like my teeth are super dirty.
