Professional Clean Plus Rechargeable toothbrush (HX7439/01)

I really like my sonicare professional clean (cheaper than the diamond) and just replace it every 3-5 years or so

I've had the Oral-B and Sonicare and Sonicare wins, hands down. Smaller heads available, teeth feel almost dentist clean, comes with a small stand and carry case. I get heads from Costco in bulk as hubby & I have the same model and it's cheaper. (It would've been cheaper to get both with the Costco 2-pack, but we switched at different times.) Every once in a while the hard part of the vibrating head will touch a tooth and it doesn't feel great, not painful just weird. My dentist has noticed a difference and I haven't had a cavity since I switched. I have TMJ issues and bruxism. I have a nighttime mouth guard from my dentist that has really helped and has material that stands up to the grinding and isn't bouncy like OTC ones, which leads to more muscle & joint pain.

Costco has both the OralB iO for $60 and the 2 pack of Sonicare Professional Clean for $130 with the SC heads (C3 Plaque Control or W Diamond Clean) for $50 for 8. Online prices will be higher.

I bought a sonicare from Amazon for cheap and it lasted about a year. I bought another sonicare from my dentist and it's still going strong, six years later.

I have a Phillips SoniCare (from costco), but the battery is dying out. Turns out Phillips Quality control varies by their providers, and some end up lasting just after warranty (For reference, I've been having mine for close to 10 years). Out of fear i might be one of the unlucky 15%, I'm gonna give Suri a shot since i like their case has the UV disinfecting feature. I think i'm still gonna try repair my old SoniCare in an iFix shop.

I don't know if there's any good ones.  I guess there was a redesign in 2023? Which may explain why some people love it and others hate it depending on how recently they bought. The new ones seem to have a screw in the body that vibrates loose and makes the brushing action terrible.  The cheap ones/double packs you get at Costco and Sam's club were terrible out of the box for me. The mid-level ones like 3000-4000 series used to be a good sweet spot, but also  vibrated themselves apart for me. The expensive ones also seem to break, and now you're just out even more money.  I had to swap to Oral B despite using Sonicare for decades previously

I’ve tried going without my electric toothbrush in the past, but I always regret it. It’s become a non-negotiable for me! I have a Philips Sonicare from Costco, and the case actually has a built-in USB charger so it’s perfect for travel. The charge lasts several weeks, though, so I’ve only needed the charger on longer trips.

I bought the midrange one, 4100 or 5100, and it broke in two years. The Costco one seems much more robust in hand, and my last one from Costco lasted longer. If you can id wait for that one to go on sale (happens all the time) and buy that.
