Customer Ratings & Reviews

Battery life is very short. Vibration speed seems to be inconsistent.

Does a great job of making your teeth look clean white.

broke after 5 months. Now makes super load sounds and does not work

The toothbrush worked well, but only lasted 1 year. The brush head started vibrated violently.

Really cleans teeth and gums. God amazing feeling!

It is with some disappointment that this tooth brush did not meet my expectations. It was a bit awkward to use and although it did clean my teeth, it was somewhat messy and uncomfortable. I was extremely disappointed with the harshness of the brush. More on that in the review of the bush/bristles.

It was working great except it just died after 20 months of use. It happened to two toothbrushes of the same model so it could be manufacturer defect.

Bought this to replace another one that I purchased in Aug and was no longer charging. I paid twice as much for this one, but is as they said you get what you paid for.

I like it a lot only down side was the light flashing for the brush head to remind to change the tooth brush head on second day.

I bought this toothbrush. It lasted exactly six weeks. Best buys won’t allow a return as it is out of their 30 day return policy. I contacted Phillips Sonicare, (several times) and they refused to refund or exchange. Worst company to deal with. I would actively discourage anyone from buying Phillips Sonicare products. I ended up buying ann Oral-B toothbrush. It is a far superior product and it works perfectly. My recommendation, purchase Oral-B over Phillips Sonicare.

I currently use a Philips Diamond Clean Sonicare toothbrush at home and wanted a second Sonicare to use just for travel. The 6100 is great it for this purpose. One charge has always lasted me through multi-day trips and should handle multi-week trips as well. There are a lot of toothbrushes out there in the market that vary in performance and cost etc. Here are the major reasons I like the 6100. With tens of thousands of brush strokes per minute the cleaning is quite thorough. The small brush head size cleans very well and easily reaches all areas of the mouth and uses a pressure sensor to keep you from damaging your gums. I really like the four brushing periods on the toothbrush which tells you when to switch to a new area for brushing and automatically turns off when the timed brushing experience is over. I am looking forward to trying some of the other brush heads that are available. Nice ergonomics, styling and build quality make for a very nice user experience.

I bought this for my husband's birthday and he didn't like it, so I use it.

It works great and the only complaint I could think of is that I would like the brush head to be a little larger.

I had the toothbrush for around 6 month and it broke. Went and about another brand.

Bought this for my wife. She said she didn't know why it cost so much. It's an average toothbrush with an average clean.

A sleek design and and works well, but the case attracts mold and is not easy to clean.

I was using this from Jan 2023 until almost the end of March 2023 it began rattling louder than normal, and a week later, the toothbrush tip no longer sat properly to the connector. Quite disappointing/frustrating seeing how expensive this toothbrush is.

this is not worth the money I spent on it. Doesn't hold charge.

This is my 4th Philips Sonicare, which in average seem to last about 3 years. Other brands lasted much longer, but I much prefer Sonicare's system. While older toothbrushes were made in either Holland or USA, this is made in China, although replacement brush heads are made in the US. Like in other Philips personal care products, the battery is not replaceable, so be prepared to throw away the handle when the battery dies, and they make it very difficult to remove the internal battery in order to dispose of it correctly. (The instructions even illustrate how to crack it open correctly with a hammer without breaking the Li-Ion battery). My previous toothbrush handle is the Series 2, that used for about a year (and it's still working) but I much prefer this model. Like most other Sonicare handles, it uses an induction charger and takes about 24 hours to charge completely. With new batteries, it should last about two weeks before it needs to be charged again. The charger appears to be the same as in all my previous models, with a 110V plug but takes 110/220v (works abroad). This model has a very useful feature that detects when one puts too much pressure while brushing and alerts by changing the vibration pattern. I tend to put too much pressure sometimes, and this might've been a contributing factor for the relatively low lifetime of the previous Sonicare handles that broke after about three years. I find it really useful. Another new feature, is that by using 'BrushSync compatible' toothbrush heads, it detects the type of toothbrush and programmed lifetime, changing its brushing pattern and indicating when to replace it (about three months). These newer brush heads have an embedded RF chip to sync with the handle. Note that it still works just fine with older brush heads, just without the replacement indicator. It works normally without any complains. That was a concern because I still had fresh replacement packs without the RF chip. The toothbrush handle has two buttons: The On/Off, which also doubles to control the vibration intensity, and a brushing mode button. The intensity is shown with three white bars, and there are three modes: Clean, which is what one would use every day, that lasts two minutes, announcing every 30 seconds to switch sections to brush (Philips calls this 'QuadPacer'). The White mode lasts 2.5 minutes and ads a pulsating mode after the first 2 minutes. The last is a gum care mode that lasts 3 minutes and it has a different vibration mode. This model also comes with a plastic traveling case that holds the handle and up to two brush heads, but not the charger. Also note that while the brush heads are completely washable, the handle can be rinsed but doesn't seem to be completely waterproof. Never had any issues getting them clean though. Aside from difficulties in recycling it and waste of not being able to replace the battery, it's a great and effortless brushing system and the introduction of the pressure sensor makes it a worthwhile upgrade.

Basic electric toothbrush; nothing special to be sure
