crushes the competition for brushes and flossers [SEP] i have owned a few sonicare and waterpiks in the past and i bought this looking for an affordable travel friendly bundle at first i was disappointed in the toothbrush handle as it starts out in a gentlelower power mode but then i read that is just for the first dozen or so uses to accommodate to the brush the flosser takes a bit to get used to before owning this i did not floss nearly as often as i should so my gums were bleeding a lot with my first week of use but it was fast kind of fun and less messy than a waterpik now i use the flosser daily and i have seen a very noticeable difference in my teeth and gumshighly recommended the only thing that could make this better would be a travel case
