First let me say the water pic works as it was designed to do. I’m sorry I picked this model. There is no pilot light to show the battery is charging. There is no pilot light that indicates the battery is fully charged or how much power is left in the battery. The unit has to be held vertically for the water to be pumped out. I don’t know anything about water flossing, but I think the motor is under powered. And lastly, the tank is too small which makes the run time very short. Competing brands have larger tanks and more features. I chose to go with a brand name and am regretting it. I have no choice but to use the Water-Pic until it dies because it was to expensive to throw out.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Dennis G - We're sorry you are not happy with the WP-450 model. The unit was designed small for travel and has proven to be effective. However, we do offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you would like more information, you can email us at smreviews@waterpik.com or call (800) 525-2774 for assistance.
Great item to have in your dental hygiene routine. Cleans out the “gunk” that brushing alone can’t. The price is well worth saving your gums and teeth from periodontal disease.

Not a great flosser
on October 9, 2023
Posted by: Asc23
I bought this unit a week ago. The reservoir leaks all over the place. There’s no covers for the picks, so after each use, they have to be washed and covered with something. The dual speed control doesn’t really work. It’s difficult to get onto the low speed. There isn’t a pick with a small tip. No size choices. I think I bought the wrong model for me. Most importantly is the reservoir leaking and water all over the place when turned on. It is securely set in place and still leaking. Not a happy customer

Hello Asc23 - We are sorry to hear that you are not a happy customer and that the unit leaks. The reservoir is not designed to store water in between uses, so make sure to empty it when finished flossing. If you would like assistance, we would be happy to guide you to a model that would be a better fit. Please email us at smreviews@waterpik.com or call us at (800) 525-2774, and we would be happy to help.
This is my 2nd water flosser and I do like the improvements that were made to this model. (ie: much easier to eject the tips). Water chamber completely empties upon use.

it does help clean my teeth and my gums but shoots water all over the place. you have to have it in your mouth with your mouth basically closed all the way or the water just starts shooting every where. its a messy clean up

Hello -We're sorry that you found the product to be messy! There is a bit of a learning curve for new users. You do want to make sure that you lean over and look down into the sink while leaving your mouth partially open to allow the water to run freely into the sink. Here is a link to the quick how-to video that has great tips on how to prevent water overspray. https://youtu.be/Ia46JK-TvpE
Plenty of power. Quite. Sucks up all the water in the tank. Holds charge.
