Second Waterpik not the same as the first. I’m still trying to get use to using this one. It takes up less space on my counter but I just have the the same clean feeling I had after using my old waterpik.
Very messy with poor instructions. Awkward and clumsy to use. I'm always fumbling with the various water valves and spray settings. How is one supposed to clean the many spouts? Did I mention how messy and sloppy it is? My periodontist says "Meh"
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello-We are sorry to hear that you aren't happy with this model and are finding it awkward and messy to use. Perhaps our how-to video may be helpful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lWWbOqMhdQ.

I like that the new Water Pic unit plugs into AC. My old Water Pic had batteries that needed frequent replacing then the unit died. The new Water Pic has more water pressure and larger water tank.
This is my second waterpik and was purchased on advice from my dentist. My teeth are too close together to brush effecently. The waterpik does a wonderful job of finishing up the work.
