Great cleaning, Needs Charging too often.

I would ONLY recommend this product because of the great cleaning job that it does WHEN it doesn't NEED A CHARGE. AND then when it needs a charge, you have to wait 10 hours? So, you don't brush your teen when it needs charging? I've had to purchase two Oral-Bs so I always have one charged. I also does NOT Hold a CHARGE for ONE WEEK! I would say change the type of battery so it would last longer and charge faster but ONLY IF they don't raise the price of the brush. They are over priced as they are.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We can understand your frustration. The Pro 1000 is designed to take up to 22 hours to fully charge, and last up to 7 days on one charge, based on a brushing schedule of 2 minutes twice a day. We do have other models that feature a different battery, longer battery life, and a shorter overall charge time. So we can help you further, please give us a call at (800) 566-7252.
After using, I rinse unit thoroughly before placing back on charger. Next day unit won't run, though motor hums. Can't pull brush off of unit. Crest toothpaste has solidified in unit, despite the rinsing. Unit only a few months old.

We're sorry to hear about your experience, and that does sound frustrating. We'd like to help you further when you have a moment to chat. Please give us a call at (800) 566-7252.
I previously had a SoniCare toothbrush, which I liked just fine. But after getting the Oral B, I am much happier. It seems to do a much better job of cleaning.
My dental hygienist recommended an electric toothbrush and I have loved using it. It has helped my gums and teeth, with wear issues that manual bushes can make. I do a much better job with the electric brush!
I did not hestitate to buy this Braun Oral-B Pro 1000 as a replacement for a Braun Oral-B Professional Care 7000 that I bought 13 years ago. I may not get 13 years out of this one, but I expect I'll get a satisfactory amount of service from a product known for quality.
The advertising and package of this product both indicate it has a 2 minute timer. It does not. If this is important to you don't buy this model of the Oral B.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Pro 1000 has a built-in timer that pulses every 30 seconds. This is the 2-minute timer that is advertised. If you have any questions, please give us a call at (800) 566-7252.
Bought this as a replacement for my Sonicare toothbrush. My dentist recommended this and they were right. It cleans much better than the old brush and replacement brush heads are much easier to find. I love the pressure sensitive mode, something the old brush didn't have. I definitely recommend this toothbrush.
