Just bought this...
on December 22, 2012
Posted by: Nathan
Oh man! I actually look forward to brushing my teeth now! I had that "other one" and I ended up getting that "dingy-mouth" feeling only a few hours into my day. Now, with The Oral-B 1000, my mouth stays feeling clean until my second brushing.
If you're worried about any "features" missing, this one has 'em all. I also love the fact that I can use a wide variety of replacement heads. That's the real kicker for me. Definitely a purchase I would make again!
Made a great Christmas gift too! I hope!
I know, I sound overly excited about this but, what can I say, I love my teeth and they love me!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Died Right After Warranty Expired
on January 9, 2014
Posted by: Canoemandan
This is our 3rd Oral B toothbrush purchase. Our last one lasted a very long time.....probably longer than Oral B would have liked. When that finally died, we bought Oral B again because we had such a good experience. We bought two more upon our last purchase. Now, one seems okay yet but, the other is just noisy, slow, and the charge runs out quickly. Maybe the brushes were lasting too long and Oral B engineers were told to engineer them to fail. I guess we'll buy another Oral B but if we have the same experience I'm going to look at other brands.

Oral b professional
on March 1, 2014

Our office highly recommends not only this model but all oral B electric toothbrushes with a round brush head. We have found as a periodontal practice that the round head tends to allow patients better brushing at the gum line and the oral B is easy to use and encourages longer brushing time. I personally switched to this from a "sonic" tooth brush and feel like I am getting a much better clean. I have personally disclosed after each type of brush and the oral b was much more efficient . I hope oral b continues with a round brush head alternative on all their brushes. I would look forward to trying other oral b products!

battery life is not great
on October 26, 2020
Posted by: cherryrouge
i’ve had my toothbrush for three weeks now. it cleans your teeth nicely but my problem is the fact that it has a terrible battery life. this is my first electric toothbrush, so i’m not sure if it’s normal or not, but it takes 22 hours and sometimes longer just for it to fully charge. and then once it’s done charging, i use it one time for two minutes and the battery light is blinking red telling me it’s already low again. its strange and a little frustrating. it’s also very loud and kind of sounds like a lawn mower. so heads up in case that’s something that may bother you. not sure if i can recommend this toothbrush though, based on the battery life alone.
Cons: Durability
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The Oral-B Pro 1000 has a charge time of 22 hours and should be running up to 7 days on one charge. We’re disappointed to hear this hasn’t been your experience, so we’d like to learn more and help! Please give us a call at (800) 566-7252.

Cheaply made. No holder for brush heads
on April 3, 2014
Posted by: TeeGee
Oral B has really cheapened their products. Sure they've added operational features, but that can be easily done with a programmed chip in the controls. They eliminated the larger stand with the holder for brush heads. I have a family of 6. The boys had their own unit, and my wife and I had ours. Each had a storage holder in the base. The new Oral B brushes have nowhere to store the brushes. What were they thinking? I'm spending a fortune annually for replacement brush heads.
I wonder if I can plug the new brush unit into my old recharger/storage stand?
PS. I hope that someone from Oral B responds to this comment and explains the perceived advantage of removing the brush holder.

Very poor design.

from SCW, Az
Great toothbrush if you like gunk from your mouth flowing down your hand on on your clothes or floor. The openings in the brush head allow this gunk to just go to the out side on the head. Very poor design. Customer support just blows you off instead of trying to fix the design flaw.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We’re sorry for any frustration; please know that we always want to help you in any way we can. The holes you see allow air inside the brush head-- this ensures that they dry fully between uses. We understand that this feature isn’t your favorite, and we’ve passed your entire experience to the rest of our team. Input from people like you help us create brushes that everyone will love, and we’re so glad you took the time to write. If there’s anything else we can help with, feel free to call us again at (800) 566-7252.

Best choice ever made
on April 14, 2014
Posted by: Naely
I'm very satisfied with my purchase and it has helped me and my family to brush more effectively. Before I was using the Professional Care toothbrush, I was using the normal (manual) Oral-B toothbrush and I use to brush my teeth for at least 20 minutes because i didn't feel that 2 or even 5 minutes was good enough to clean my teeth. I remember brushing my teeth until it bleed and with the Professional Care toothbrush, 2 minutes is all I needed and if I'm not happy with 2 minutes, there is always another 2 minutes but at least I knew how long I was brushing my teeth for and it has not given me any harm to my teeth and gums.

Couldn’t believe the difference made!
on March 31, 2020

from Atlantic City, NJ
An electric toothbrush was recommended from my dentist to help reduce plaque build up on my back tooth & bottom front teeth.I purchased the Oral-B Pro 1000 around the end of February. After using the Oral-B Pro 1000 for about 1 week, day and night, I noticed my teeth were feeling much cleaner; I would run my tongue across my teeth and literally feel how smooth they’ve gotten from just a little over a week of usage. It’s now March 31st & there hasn’t been a single build of plaque on any of my teeth. I’m honestly in shock, I’ve had plaque buildup so quickly on my teeth for years & after flossing and brushing with a regular toothbrush twice a day & somehow the plaque still managed to slowly build on. With the Oral-B Pro 1000 my teeth literally feel like I just got a teeth cleaning at the dentist, no exaggeration. In addition, my gums are slightly pinker & I haven’t had bad breathe! If you’re hesitant about paying the price for this toothbrush, DON’T BE, I guarantee you will notice a huge difference. I can also guarantee you will NEVER go back to a regular toothbrush after purchasing this toothbrush. I have no regrets and will continue to recommend the Oral-B Pro 1000 to family and friends.
I would recommend this to a friend!
