My dentist recommended I get one of these devices to better clean my teeth. I floss regularly but never seemed to be quite enough. I have several Caps and maybe that is why it never seemed quite as clean as I'd have liked. I looked at several models --cordless and corded. This model is corded. I bought it for the positive reviews. First, the con: 1) It's large- does take up space on your counter, 2) It's loud- (only matters if you are concerned about waking others), 3) I need to run the cord around the sink to reach the plug- something I don't prefer (water and electric don't mix well), 4) Takes a little getting used to / can be messy with water dripping out of your mouth. Now the PROS: 1) It gets my teeth cleaner then ever before, 2) Cleaner teeth = fresher breath, 3) It's convenient to use.
In summary- even though it might seem the CONS outweigh the PROS, I do recommend this for the simple reason that is gets my teeth cleaner then ever before. And that's the most important thing for me.
I have been using this for a few weeks now and love it. It does such a good job at flossing; so much better than regular floss. My mouth feels really clean when I am finished.
Purchased for myself and more for my 10yr old. He just started getting orthodontics applied so anything that we can do to keep the added hardware clean is worth it. Only negative would be that the kit came with heads that don't apply to either of us. Maybe more kits with specific options instead of heads for everything????
My hygenist recommended this, and I am so happy that I followed her advice. Both my mouth and teeth feel better than ever. As a senior citizen, I still I have all my teeth, and this will help.
Why did I wait so long to buy this! Does a great job cleaning between teeth. Takes a little time to get used to the water stream. Just be sure not to use cold water! Just wish this model had an off/on switch on the handle. Otherwise, great value.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I just got my Waterpik Ultra Water Flosser today and I am beyond satisfied with my purchase! Flossing is so time consuming and can be somewhat painful! With the Waterpik ultra, you control the water pressure! It comes with 6 different piks to choose from and each one does a wonderfully unique job! I've never felt a better clean feeling!! I just love having a bright white smile and healthier mouth thanks to my new Waterpik Ultra!!
Ps. Keep your mouth closed unless you want water all over the place! But once you get the hang definitely worth every single dollar!
