I think it will take practice to use this thing , It's not so simple . The water just runs out of my mouth, even with my mouth closed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I was not impressed...It was awkward to hold while using it.

Thank you for the feedback. We are sorry that you found the unit difficult to use. Perhaps a countertop model would be a better option for you. You can view them by following or copying the link below.
I purchased my new Waterpik 450 after my dentist told me what to get. I must say that I am thrilled...my ONLY negative is that had I known that there were other Waterpik models, I might have selected a different model. I must say that I am terribly impressed. I always felt that I brushed and flossed thoroughly, but this product has shown me that I can do so very much better. I LOVE this product and I believe that every household should have at least one!!
I’ve had Waterpik Flossers before and have always been happy with them. I just hope I don’t have the same issue I did in the past. After a while, the battery would not hold a charge. But so far, so good. My dentist has even commented that things are looking better since I started with this.
