I’ve been using cheap old $2/6pack of brushes for 20 years. Luckily have pretty good oral hygiene, but soft and sensitive teeth. The hygienist barely has to remove any plaque and was surprised that two years ago I hadn’t had a cleaning in 22 years!
I mainly wanted a water pick as the motorized toothbrush wasn’t something I thought I’d need. Glad to find out that I was mistaken.
One thing you really need to do is get used to the vibration. The Sonicare feels like a deep tissue massage for you teeth. The first time was quite a shock as it fell like my whole skull was vibrating. After a few more sessions I got used to it. The toothbrush has multiple settings and two are mainly time settings so I stick with the default 2min brush. Every 20 seconds it pauses to let you know it’s time to change quadrants. I barely brush a minute though and my teeth are smooth and shiny like a fresh tooth polishing.
There is an app that can connect but I don’t see its worth as all it does is tell you to buy a new head or how long you’ve been brushing. I’ve never been very OCD about tooth brushing that I’d want to see what I did 2 years ago on Tuesday night, lol. So I stick with “dumb” brushing.
I have a cheap water pick and that thing jets waters so hard that I have to make sure I aim it right to I’m tasting blood. The Sonicare Power Flosser doesn’t seem to have the same flesh ripping pressure, but it offers enough to pop out stuck chicken meat without a problem. I do kinda wish it would push harder, but i don’t think it’s really necessary. It’s mainly because I’m used to the extra pressure from the old unit.
So far I’m happy with this Sonicare Dental system and hope to find out in a year if it’s worth stick with or going back to my cheap brushes. I don’t think I’ll be going back though!

Like most people, I have an electric toothbrush however, I had also been wanting to use a water flosser as I’m still using the string floss. I had bought a separate water pik before however it was pretty cheap and didn’t really work well. Fast forward a couple years and my toothbrush need replacing. I saw this all-in-one unit and figured I’d give it a shot.
The toothbrush is pretty great in itself. I had a Philips electric toothbrush before and this was great to have again. Really great quality and worked great. I used to have an Oral-B however the Philips is really a much better option IMO.
The water flosser is taking a little bit getting used to however, I can it’s way more effective than your typical string flossing. The water flosser has a couple different nozzles to play around with to see which one suits you best. The water pressure is quite good so it’s no issue blasting away food particles or what not with this. I do see that I’ll probably be filling up the water tank about once every couple days but that’s not too big an issue.
This nice little combo was pretty much what I was looking for as far as “total” oral care/hygiene for me. Using both of these devices, I feel a bit more confident that I’m getting a really thorough cleaning which is nice. Hopefully, this will mean less dentist visits but only time will tell. If you’re looking for a complete tooth cleaning system, this is definitely worth a look.

I’m really enjoying this toothbrush kit. I’ve used quite a bit of electric toothbrushes and the Sonicare line is among the best IMO. I like how the whole kit doesn’t take up a ton of my precious sink space and the double-duty utility of having an electric toothbrush AND a power flosser in one unit is very nice. The toothbrush tech handles brushing thoroughly with ease and the power flosser is surprising powerful. It can get messy but its just water and with a little practice you can get great results with little to no spills. The app tells you how efficiently you brushed and coaches you in weak areas to get you to cover all your teeth 100%. It will also tell you when you need a new brush head.
After a week of use, I can tell that my teeth feel much smoother and the toothbrush seems to find and remove every bit of food in your teeth. It’s a way different experience than a manual toothbrush. With this Sonicare for instance, you don’t brush your teeth. Instead, you simply hover the toothbrush over each tooth for about 10 seconds and the Sonicare breaks up and loosens the food particles. When you can combine that with the Power Flosser feature, you will keep a whiter and cleaner smile for sure. Once you use the Sonicare, you won’t go back to regular brushing.

I own a few power toothbrushes, Philips and the other brand. Because the brushes keep getting better and I like having the latest and greatest, if it truly is a better product. This Philips Power Flosser with Sonicare Brush is the best cleaning short of a dentist cleaning so far. It does take time to do everything this kit can do to remove foreign particles from your teeth and mouth. And yes, the flosser will be a bit splashy. Have a towel handy. The reward for the 5 minutes you spend brushing and spraying your mouth will be fresher mouth and likely better dental visits. The kit is simple to use and has settings for those new to power brushes and oral irrigators to those advanced users that want full power to blast stuck food particles.
My favorite setup is the “quad stream” water head after using the toothbrush on the “deep clean+” setting. The brush has 3 settings and day to day the “clean” setting is probably best. But, the deep clean is where the brush head and motor shine. The normal brush head vibration is bumped up and seems to add a pulsating feel. And WOW do my teeth feel amazing afterwords. Plus, with this toothbrush head being the Premium C3 rubberized (or silicone coated) with longer bristles top and bottom. You don’t get that odd cringy feel when a sonic brush head hits a tooth. It’s all smooth sailing to clean.
I really like this kit and the nearly perfect cleaning it can give my teeth. I would like Philips to know there might be a little room for improvement. The case for the toothbrush to travel and the additional charger are great. But, the case for the flosser heads with no clear place on the flosser unit seems a bit of an oversight. The case doesn’t attach to the base and the heads have no built in home on the base unit. Not sure why, this feels like an afterthought. You built-in a place for the toothbrush. A little nozzle garage or a mount for the case to snap onto might be better.
If you have teeth and you want them clean. This is a Must Buy.

This Sonic toothbrush and power flosser offers the ultimate cleaning solution for teeth hygiene & plaque reduction. My prior Philips Sonicare toothbrush from 2 years ago (black one pictured) has greatly reduced cleanings at the dentist office, so definitely a fan of these products.
THE BAD: The switch system on power flosser must be pushed up to operate which makes it easier for water continue to flow if you it let go mistakenly. Would have preferred a button system were soon as you let it go it stops. The Phillips Sonic app needs access to your contacts & call history on phone for it to work. Really no reason an app that monitors progress on brushing your teeth should have access to your call history & contacts or maybe I am just paranoid? I hope the company would consider not making that mandatory in a future update.
The Philips Sonicare Power Flosser & Toothbrush System 7000 operates quieter than others & it’s Quad-Stream technology, covers more surface area for a faster, deeper clean versus manual floss. Has an app to monitor your progress. (Could not evaluate it out due to privacy issues) Toothbrush is rechargeable with over a month battery life on a single charge that can charged on Flosser’s base or additional travel charger. Toothbrush comes with travel case and reminds you when to replace brush head and cleans your teeth far better than any manual toothbrush. This unit has easy to follow instructions not that you really need it because quite simple to operate by just choosing a nozzle for floss system, connect brush head and plug in. Brush & floss on a 90-degree angle with cleaning the water reservoir on flosser weekly.
Other than a few issues the product is exceptionally good and may save $$$ in the long run without having cleanings done by dentist and/or prevent major tooth problems, at least in my experience.

I’ve been using an older Sonicare toothbrush in combination with an air flosser for a few years now and by and large have loved them, so when the opportunity to try a new and improved version of both came around I was quite excited. After spending a few days with the set I have to say that I still love the overall user experience and quality… but as often happens when moving to a more complicated and feature-rich product I’ve also found a lot more areas that could potentially be improved on.
Before I get into that though, I’d like to cover the highlights. Both the toothbrush and irrigator are attractive, sturdy, and thoughtfully laid out. Not needing two plugs to power both the flosser and the toothbrush is almost worth the price of admission alone. The brush is built for what I believe are their third generation of brush heads, but is still backwards compatible with the older first generation ones I already had. You also get a carrying case for both the spare flosser heads and the toothbrush, as well as a stand-alone charger you can bring with you if you plan to take it with you when you travel. I am a little puzzled why Philips designs their toothbrushes to have out of the box support for only three different cleaning modes when the ecosystem is built around four, though it’s possible that this is simply a labelling issue rather than a qualitative one as I struggled to tell what the actual difference was between the “whiten” mode that my old brush had and the “deep clean+” mode this new one has instead, even though the instructions seem to imply that they are different features. If you’ve never used one of these electric toothbrushes or flossers before you should expect a bit of a transition period, as it can feel quite intense before you get used to it, but you do eventually get used to it in my experience. And both brush and flosser feature variable intensity controls to help you adapt as well, including an automated system on the brush that will gradually turn things up over several sessions to ease you into things. The flosser doesn’t have the same automated process, but it does have a lot more options with ten different intensities, four different modes, and three different nozzle styles. Of the three I’d recommend the basic round nozzle for beginners, as it’s the easiest to maneuver and understand, while you might want to wait to try out the new x-head until you’ve gotten a bit more proficient unless you don’t mind accidentally spraying your bathroom from time to time. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate the added power it brings, but I also know that I’m not nearly good enough with it to apply it properly yet.
Unfortunately while Philips has clearly accumulated a lot of experience in designing excellent dental hardware, their software experience still leaves a bit to be desired. It’s not that it’s bad, per se, so much as it is simply failing to live up to the standard set by the physical equipment. To give an example, earlier I talked about how there’s a learning curve with both of these devices. Given that, it would seem obvious that the app would be designed to actively teach users in the best uses and practices for both parts of the kit. But it really doesn’t do that. The manual tells you that brushing should be broken up into six segments, each one targeting a different set of teeth. It would seem like an obvious feature then to have the app define these segments and guide you through each one, perhaps highlighting the specific techniques for each that’ll get you the best results. Instead all you get is a timer counting down the seconds until the brush automatically turns itself on to signal that you’ve carried out the recommended two minutes of brushing per session – which really doesn’t feel like something that’s worth pulling out my phone to have. And it doesn’t connect to the flosser at all, which is particularly unfortunate as I feel it’s the bit that would benefit the most from active guidance. What’s slightly more galling is the fact that there is a tips and tricks area with a “how to use” button to press, but using it only shows you what’s basically an ad for the higher end version of this brush that can apparently not only do what I mentioned above, but go so far as to point out specific teeth you should be working on. I get wanting to have some stuff be exclusive to the higher end products to justify their added expense, but giving us a map to reference without the active guidance (or just an instructional video that’s actually relevant to the product we have) seems perfectly reasonable.
That being said, there are certainly other features in the app that I do appreciate. It offers fairly detailed information on the remaining lifespan of your brush head based on your use habits and how much pressure is actually being applied when you use it. And since this data is actually stored in a small chip on the brush itself, you don’t even have to worry about confusing it if you’re swapping heads for multiple users on a regular basis. I’ve also been appreciating the gentle reminders about how I can improve my brushing habits, which for once is NOT being delivered by an endless parade of passive aggressive push notifications.
Overall I’d recommend this set to anyone looking to improve their brushing habits (or monitor their kids’) without having to be too overbearing about it.

Philips Sonicare Power Flosser and Toothbrush System is an absolute deal and a complete system for you to keep your teeth and gums happy and healthy. I have had a week with the new 7000 series products and being an already end user of Sonicare products, I wanted to see the improvements Philips has made since 2018 when I purchased my last products.
The Toothbrush is great as I expected matching and honestly beating the 2018 version when it comes to the feel on my teeth. I feel that Philips changed the intensity of the vibration to a true 3 level system for low, medium and high. The picture I included shows the original on the left and new on the right. My original is hard to notice much difference between low, medium and high. The updated brush besides looking better, had a much more prominent difference between the 3 power levels.
Also, the 2022 version uses the same replacement head structure, which is great, because now my wife can have the old one an stock leaving my brush heads on the sink to fall on the floor.
The Power Flosser has a charging base for the toothbrush but due to my bathroom design, we do not have the counter space to keep the power flosser on top. Luckily, Philips includes another individual base to keep that brush charged daily and I must say, hats off to them for including that extra charging base, helps for traveling too.
The flosser is great, the white tipped cleaner is my favorite already, making sure my molars are clean of heavy foods before brushing and rinsing. The white tip on level 6 power gets pulled pork loose and I have yet to go over that power level. The clear tip also forces out heavy foods just as well as the other two, just no guard or tip protection like the other 2 included tips. The purple tip seems to work best for me on for the backside of my front teeth.
With the Power Flosser, here comes the main reason for the 4 stars and not the 5 it almost deserved. The base is great with the power connector under the unit and a cord routing channel as well. It is great but not perfect, meaning, here are the 2 reasons for the 4 stars. First, the wound up water carrying tube is horribly stiff, making me pull over the base 3 times in a week spilling water all over my feet. The tube does not flex or pull out easy and this is because they need it to stay its shape for storage as they picture. This makes the reach very hard for tall people like myself, in turn, makes me have to bend over to the point I cannot look in the mirror to see what I am doing. Secondly, the water container falls off so easy making it very frustrating when putting away or if you move wrong and it all of a sudden is no longer giving you water. Philips could easily fix this with a little latch or magnets.
Being a house that is old. our sinks are small, so I have to store this in the closet and every night for the past week, the top has fallen off when setting on the closet shelf, it is truly a frustrating design of the Power Flosser. The Power Flosser does make up for most of the hassle with its function and power, but, these 2 things keep it from a 5 star all day long in my house.
So, to finish out, here is some Pros and Cons to the Philips Sonicare 7000 series products.
Pros:
Power to clean out hard foods
Brush works perfectly as every other Sonicare and better to be honest
Same heads as all other Sonicare brushes
Integrated brush charging base
Included Separate charging base
Great looks and easy to clean
Cons:
Water Tube stiff making it difficult for tall people
Water container falls off way too easily
So, if you have a nice place to store or a sink large enough to keep this on top all the time, this is a perfect fit and you will love the Philips 7000 Series Sonicare products. If you are like myself and have to store it every night, be ready for a little frustration with storage.

INTRODUCTION
The Philips SoniCare toothbrush combines regular brushing with “sonic” vibrations to help remove food and plaque. If not enough, the kit includes a powered flosser with its own pump to help blast any stubborn remnants from between your teeth, making for healthier gums and hopefully less time in the dentist’s chair.
USE
Initial use for this kit is quite simple. Place the toothbrush on the charger, fill the reservoir with water and dig out all the brush heads and flossing wands and put them all in their proper containers. After the toothbrush charged for approximately 3 hours, it was ready for use.
Philips has joined the bandwagon on packing more and more tech into something that I thought never really needed it. Their new line of toothbrushes and gum care products are all Bluetooth enabled. A download from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store gets the SoniCare app and with an account creation, links your toothbrush to the phone.
The SoniCare app is much like the Oral-B app. It offers you a way to keep track of your toothbrush (and update its firmware), coaches you on your brushing, including time and pressure applied, days left until the head needs replaced, and even allows you to input appointments for the dentist. While I’m not sure of the overall necessity for an app for a toothbrush (something I also questioned with the Oral-B), the SoniCare app did work without issue on both my Android and iOS devices. Good work Philips!
Those of us that have used Oral-B products for years will find the SoniCare experience quite unique. The way the brush operates to clean your teeth is much different than the Oral-B. The combinations of movement and pulses feels awkward at first and does take some time to feel “normal”.
The powered water flosser is a different story. I have some time still ahead of me to master that. The first few times I used it, I wound up laughing more than actual flossing. The pump on the water flosser is quite powerful. Powerful enough to shoot water across the bathroom for several feet. Ask me how I know. You have to make sure you have that flosser in the correct position before using the trigger or yourself, the vanity, and bathroom will all get a good bath. It was humorous the first few times, aggravating the next few times. I’m sure once I get better at it, it will be less messy, but you gotta be on your A-Game when you first give it a go.
NEGATIVES
The only real issue that I can think of is that water flossing can be very messy and you can only go a few seconds before your mouth fills up and you need to spit it all out. I have attempted to use the flosser with my mouth open, but I either need more practice, or it can’t be done as water was shooting around the bathroom like someone unleashed Old Faithful.
CONCLUSIONS
The SoniCare toothbrush and water flosser do seem to do a very good job at cleaning your teeth. My teeth did feel much cleaner flossing after a meal. That is, when I wasn’t spraying water across the bathroom. I have to admit though, the inner child in me found it to be an awesome, secret squirt gun. Not that I would participate in such juvenile behavior.
How well it will performs compared to my existing Oral-B toothbrush in the long run is yet to be seen. But, my initial few uses with the SoniCare have been impressive and positive and I feel the powered flosser does make a tangible difference in how my teeth and gums feel.

I’ve used MANY different electric toothbrushes before, but its always the same thing… I use them for a little while, then get tired of them and go back to my manual toothbrush…But I’ve never used a Sonicare before until now. Well, to say this feels different than my other electric toothbrushes is a big understatement. I had no idea what I was missing, or how thorough this thing was! You can actually FEEL it working… the vibrations were alarming at first, but now I don’t even notice them.
You can adjust the intensity of the brush from Low, Medium, or High, but only if you find it necessary. I like the default settings so far and haven’t had to mess with them. after the first use, I was like “Huh, I wonder if its really that much better than my old one”. After about a week of using this, I don’t have to ask that any more. My teeth feel cleaner, my breath is better, and I look forward to using this because of the results I’ve already seen!
This was my first time using a water flosser, so I think its fair to say there is a learning curve to make sure you don’t spray down yourself or your bathroom mirror every time you use it, but after the 2nd day I no longer have to have a towel right there…. I’m getting better! But more importantly, my teeth FEEL better. I’m not sure if its better, recommended over regular floss, but I will say that its easier to use than regular floss and I believe it does a better, and more thorough job.
Very happy with this, and I’ve already asked my dentist about this product and he recommends it 100%!

Philips Sonicare Power Flosser & Toothbrush
Summary:
Powerful and refreshing oral hygiene tool.
Pros:
* Modest form factor. I’ve owned older versions of the power flosser and they have tended to be on the larger side. This unit is just large enough without being too much of a vanity hog. It also has a clear lid rather than a bulky accessory lid that blocks light. So visually, it occupies less space.
* Flosser function is fantastic. The power flosser is awesome! The included heads and control are an improvement over the older versions of this tool. When my last unit finally died, I stopped using a power flosser. I had forgotten about how great my gums felt after a flossing session. Wax strings just aren’t the same thing. This allows me to target areas of my mouth more precisely and apply just enough pressure to dislodge stuff with out awkward contortions.
* Toothbrush! This unit is an upgrade for me because this unit comes with a power toothbrush. I’ve always owned a power toothbruth and so being able to consolidate to a single unit was certainly welcome. Being a Soniccare toothbrush, it works just as well as you would expect.
Cons:
* I don’t know how I would improve upon this device. I don’t really have any complaints.
Use:
Flossing and brushing your teeth has never been easier with no excuses thanks to this integrated device.

I’ve been using Sonicare brushes for years, I’ve been very happy with their toothbrush systems. I like them so much that I decided to try this flosser combination and to see if my wife liked it. The system design is pretty nice, fairly compact, a good use of space. I’ll start with my wife’s impression of the this brush, two words “too big”. She prefers a more compact head, I don’t mind the brush size, but the supplied brush head is firmer than I like (I have a stock of replacements that fit this brush). This head has some silicon on the back (a new feature) I don’t really care for this. The monitored brushing is a nice way to know when to move from one quadrant to another, but they’ve done this for 10+ years.
Now on to the Flosser, I filled the tank with slightly warm water. After reading the instructions it says to use the flosser much like you brush, moving from quadrant to quadrant. Well I used up a whole tank on the first quadrant, having to spit out the water 3 times. I initially liked the feel, but it seems like there was way too much water being discharged into my mouth. I tried the other “special picks” w/colored tips, and they were worse, more discharged water faster. I changed the mode to deep clean and went from 1-10, I liked 10 the most, as it felt like it was working. But so much water. My dentist uses a water pick to clean my teeth/gums, and the volume of water is significantly less with a finer stream. I was expecting this flosser to be more like the experience at the dentist. The other thing is the length of the flosser cord, it’s fairly stiff and only uncoiled a little, so your not going to go more than 2 feet from the machine.
I’ve now been using the flosser for a week, and I still want a finer stream, to do a good job I have to re-fill the tank 2 or 3 times. That being said the flosser does make my gums feel better, I know it’s working (on 10), but the pulsing does not seem necessary, it just seems to use more water. I look forward to using it during fresh corn season. I like the brush, but I think the flosser can be improved (hold more water or use less).

I’ve used other electric toothbrushes over the years mostly from the other prominent brand. Getting this latest Philips Sonicare Power Flosser & Toothbrush System 7000 almost feels like getting my teeth and gums cleaned by a dental hygienist every day. I don’t know how it does it, but my teeth and gums feel so clean and fresh after each brushing plus flossing session that I’m never going back to using a regular manual toothbrush. The smooth sonic vibrations of the brush head almost create a feeling of gentle water pressure/swishing in your mouth, resulting in a very refreshing feeling. Make sure you close your mouth as much as possible, or you’ll be making a bit of a mess on your mirror.
The setup and use is very simple and straightforward. There are 3 modes of operation intensity: Clean, Deep Clean and Gum Health. The brush head it came with is the new C3 style that is coated with a soft silicone edge on the outside, opposite to the bristles. The charger base is a bit bulky with the water tank and power flosser but the travel case with separate travel charger is a welcome addition.
Compared to other brands I’ve used that consider your mouth to have 4 quadrants, with 30-second brushing of each section, this Sonicare divides your mouth in 6 quadrants with 20-second brushing intervals. That was confusing at first, but the manual is pretty clear about it.
First time using a water flosser, so I didn’t know what to expect, other than be very careful and keep your mouth closed as much as possible or else you’ll splash everything like a kid with a water gun at a pool party. It will take lots of practice to get it just right, but I have a few months before my next dentist visit, so I’m hoping it will make a difference as I do have sensitive gums that bleed a lot if I don’t floss daily. The power flosser has 4 different modes and 10 intensity settings, so if you’re patient and persistent you’ll find the setting that works for you.
The App installed on my Android phone and worked on the first try. I don’t usually bring my phone to the bathroom while brushing my teeth, but I do like usage information and statistics and reminders when to change the brush head. I wish they included more than just 1 brush head, as they could be pricey. I also wish there was a visual indicator, like a red light when you’re pushing the brush head too hard against your teeth/gums. Other than that, this is a very nice and comprehensive teeth and gum cleaning system.

This is my second Sonicare toothbrush but first power flosser of any kind. The first Sonicare I gave to my son because his dentist recommended that he needed one. I am a bad brusher and flosser. What I like about the toothbrush is that it is set to make you brush your teeth for 2 minutes, with a pause every 20 seconds telling you to do another third of either your upper or lower teeth. I never have enough patience to do it that long with a manual brush. I forgot how CLEAN my teeth feel after this brushing, almost as if I had just come from the dentist.
The toothbrush can sync with your phone (my older model did not do this) with the Sonicare app. It can keep track of how often you are brushing and if you are applying the correct amount of pressure. It’s neat that it can sync this data with Apple Health on iOS to go along with my smart scale, sleep tracker, blood pressure cuff, step counter, and all the other data that’s getting pushed there. The app will also keep track of the brush heads you are using and when it’s time to replace them. Included in the box is one ‘premium plaque control’ head.
For the flosser, I was pleasantly surprised that Phillips was wise enough to put a toothbrush charger on the base of the flosser meaning you only need to plug in 1 cord. There are 4 different cleaning modes. I started off with Sensitive because I am a terrible flosser (I tell my dental hygienist every visit that the last time I flossed was when she last saw me!) so I thought a standard clean might be too vigorous for me but Sensitive was doing too little, so I settled on Clean mode and about 4 days in now I have it at about 5-6 intensity. It is so much better than wrapping string around your fingers and doing it the manual way. Quicker too! The instructions say to let the water drain out of your mouth as you floss but I have yet to master this as it tends so I have to pause it and spit every few seconds. Although more than once now I’ve forgotten that it’s squirting high pressure water and pull it out of my mouth only to squirt myself or the wall before I remember to pause it! I’ve tried all three nozzles and really any are fine but the quad stream is probably my favorite.
Pros:
Feels like a trip to the dentist
Flosser Base has Integrated Toothbrush Charger (1 plug to wall)
Flosser comes with 3 nozzles
Quiet
Tank is easy to refill
4 Cleaning Modes @ 10 intensity levels
Includes case for all three flossing nozzles
And includes Travel Case for toothbrush and two heads
Brush heads can be found at any store
Cons:
Flossing might take a bit of getting used to
I see these Sonicare demo units in my dentist office every time I go. I can’t wait to tell her I am using both the flosser and the brush and see if my gum health has improved since last visit. Highly recommended if you care about oral hygiene!

UNBOXING:
The unboxing experience of the Sonicare Power Flosser & Toothbrush System is pretty straightforward. In the box, you receive the Power Flosser machine and removable reservoir, 3 flossing nozzles plus a nozzle case; the toothbrush plus brush head, and travel case, and also a travel charger.
There are also two manuals—one for the flosser and one for the toothbrush. I do recommend going through some of the details, as it explains some functionality that you might not otherwise realize if you skip the manual.
BUILD:
Overall, it’s a very plastic build, but that’s to be expected. The flosser is lightweight in the hand and while it’s permanently attached to the system, the tubing easily retracts into place, so you won’t be hassled with the cleanup.
The water reservoir is easily lifted up without any sort of latching mechanism, and the reservoir door swings up from the top so you can refill the reservoir with ease. I found this to be very easy to work with. You just want to take care to hold the reservoir at the base rather than near the reservoir door so that you don’t accidentally lose grip and spill water everywhere.
The pressure level knob on the flossing system has a very gentle clicking feedback when you turn it in order to indicate changes to the pressure level. The Power and Mode buttons, however, are a bit annoying to press because the system doesn’t quite weigh enough to prevent it from sliding across the counter while you press the buttons. So more often, I find myself using my thumb to press the buttons while wrapping my fingers around the flosser for support. This is such a nit-pick thing, but something at least worth noting for Philips to improve upon—whether it means using capacitive buttons or adding more friction at the base so the whole thing doesn’t slide across your sink countertop.
The toothbrush certainly weighs more than the flosser, but was comfortable in the hand, the buttons were easy to press, and it was easy to attach/detach brush heads. And I certainly like that it can be charged by simply dropping it on the Power Flosser’s dedicated charging station as well as the basic travel charger.
FLOSSER:
Starting with the Power Flosser, you have 4 different flossing modes—clean, deep clean, sensitive and massage.
Clean mode pushes water out in rapid succession like a machine gun, while Deep Clean mode starts gentler and ramps up to a peak then abruptly starts over from gentle and ramps up again. This makes it sort of confusing as to why the more brutal Clean mode is not called “Deep Clean”. If I had to guess, Philips might have found that people were more attracted to the name “Deep Clean”, but didn’t want to associate their most brutal mode with the one that people would likely use the most, as this could yield negative results if people found it to be too painful. Whatever the reasoning is, between those two I think the “Deep Clean” mode is probably more comfortable mode at higher pressure levels, while the normal “Clean” mode may yield discomfort at high pressure levels. Your mileage may vary based on the condition of your teeth and gums.
Sensitive is much more like Deep Clean, but it actually oscillates by starting gently then ramping up to its peak, then ramping back down to gentle pressure, and repeats that cycle. Massage mode is more like the Clean mode, but switches between a high pressure blast and a lower pressure blast but in a consistent, rapid succession.
Realistically, I think you’ll find one or two you like and generally stick with them. Overall, I think these modes are really just a matter of preference towards comfort.
Additionally, there are 3 nozzles included which can spray in multiple directions. I’m honestly not sure how necessary this is, as the standard single-direction nozzle can provide the highest pressure for a deeper clean. As long as you are decently thorough, I think that is probably all that is necessary.
Compared to conventional flossing, I do think this does a good job at being convenient and accessible. I recently visited my dentist who told me I should floss more. So I started flossing more with traditional floss and floss picks, but found it somewhat difficult in terms of reach. Not only that, but it was also a more time-consuming activity, which I think detracts a lot of people from flossing on a daily basis.
Interestingly, studies have shown that most people don’t have great flossing techniques. Experts believe that a good flossing technique should be more effective than a waterpik solution, but on average, those who use a waterpik end up removing 17% more plaque than those who only use traditional floss. So while experts might not recommend a waterpik solution to be a pure substitute for traditional flossing, it does appear to be more effective on average because it’s easier to do. And in my pragmatic opinion, having a convenient way of flossing daily is better than not flossing at all.
Overall, I did find the Power Flosser to be quite effective for me. I do have a very mild case of gingivitis around a few specific teeth, so I have been adding flossing to my daily regimen to help reduce plaque and inflammation. While it’s too early to report any concrete results, I do feel confident that this should help reduce bleeding over time. But there is no denying that there is plenty of pressure from this Power Flosser.
TOOTHBRUSH:
The toothbrush is something that Philips has typically done quite well, but I feel as though the execution here could use a bit of work. Firstly, this toothbrush recommends Philips BrushSync toothbrush heads—which basically use unique RFID tags to help the toothbrush detect how long you have been using the head. That allows it to recommend that you change the head once it has worn out. This will typically be every 3 months, but if you brush more than 2x a day, you may find that it recommends a replacement sooner than 3 months. On the toothbrush itself is a small LED that will light up when the brush head needs to be replaced. If you’re the kind of person who switches between different models of brush heads, this usage data should be unique to each brush head.
The caveat to this is that these BrushSync-enabled heads are very expensive. Often between $30 and $40 for a 4-pack. That being said, you do not have to use BrushSync heads.
With that out of the way—the toothbrush has 3 modes—Clean, Gum Health and Deep Clean+. The Clean mode counts 3 minutes of brushing time at a normal brush head vibration level, Gum Health gives a gentler vibration level for 3 minutes, and Deep Clean gives 2 minutes at a more intense vibration level. In each mode, the toothbrush tries to make a somewhat detectable vibration pattern when it’s time to switch to the next section of your teeth/gums, but honestly, it’s just not good. The battery LED on the toothbrush also blinks when it’s time to switch, but this isn’t at all noticeable because it isn’t in your view while you’re brushing your teeth.
The best way to experience these modes is to connect the toothbrush via Bluetooth to the Sonicare smartphone app where you can view the number of times you’ve brushed each day, the average amount of time you’ve brushed per day, and also get feedback about how much pressure you should be applying.
During an actual brushing session, using the app can show you which section of your teeth to brush along with a total countdown timer. When a section is up, it’ll visually indicate to move onto the next session. And if you’re applying too much pressure, it’ll warn you to ease up. The toothbrush handle will also reduce the vibration intensity when you apply too much pressure. Honestly, a mobile app should not be needed for this to be a good user experience, but if we’re being honest, this could use some work. Philips could provide better vibration or auditory cues on the toothbrush to indicate when it is time to change the section of your teeth, and could also do a better job at warning users of applying too much pressure. If they can do that, then there’s not too much reason to use the mobile app other than to see stats on your brushing habits—which can certainly be valuable for some people.
Overall, I think the toothbrush is good, but you’re paying a premium for an experience that doesn’t quite live up to the expectation. However, because it does have the ability to function over Bluetooth, Philips does have the ability to update the firmware to improve on some of these elements. I updated the toothbrush out of the box, and my current experience is better with the smartphone app as opposed to standalone usage, but that really should not be the default.
CONCLUSION:
The Sonicare Power Flosser & Toothbrush System 7000 is decent, but it’s also quite expensive. In my opinion, I think you’re likely to get better value out of purchasing a cheaper Power Flosser 3000 and a cheaper Sonicare toothbrush. Much of the features in this system just aren’t ironed out in such a way that makes me feel like they’re imperative to your dental hygiene journey.
I want to be clear—I do think that these products are effective when it comes to your dental hygiene, but these extra features are somewhat half-baked and partly feel like solutions to problems that Philips created. So to me, it doesn’t seem right to charge so much for it.
Overall, for dental hygiene, I like it, but in terms of value, I’d only consider buying it on sale.
BeingHonest –
Pro:
-Powerful spray
-3 different nozzles
-Toothbrush syncs with app
Con:
-Cumbersome and messy
-The pump rattles
-Tank empties quickly
The water flosser is like a mini power washer for your gums. Even at low settings it’s powerful enough to clean off the plaque and at higher settings it can get food particles out. It’s also good for power cleaning your sink. It’s recommended that you start at the lowest level and work your way up, and in the week that I’ve had it, I’m still on level 4. At higher levels it starts to feel uncomfortable on my gums. It has a max of 10 levels and 4 settings for Clean, Deep Clean, Sensitive, and Massage. Some of the settings will pulse as it sprays, but I generally stick with Clean. Even though it’s strong, I still use floss afterwards. Either I miss some spots or the spray isn’t hitting the tight spaces between some teeth.
The handle has a button to turn on the spray, but it also has a magnetic clip that will automatically turn off the spray. The tube is coiled and is self stored in the base so it’s kept tidy and neat. There’s three nozzles included. The standard one sprays one stream, the comfort one sprays two streams to the side, and the last is a four way stream for quicker coverage.
While it’s good, it’s not without some drawbacks. It is somewhat cumbersome and gets a bit messy. It’s spraying a lot of water in your mouth and it’ll splash a lot. The tube is short so the pump has to be placed right next to the sink, which can take up room. The tank can drain quickly and if you’re not used to it, you’ll probably have to refill it. Lastly it will rattle while in use and can be somewhat loud.
The brush is good. It may not be the highest end model, but it has what you need with three settings and three levels. It fits with all the models of brush heads and each brush head has a chip that will select the best mode. I tried two types but both just selected Clean. The brush also has a feature that will stop and vibrate the head if you’re applying too much pressure.
The brush also can sync up with the Sonicare app that will keep track of your brushing habits and history and offer tips. It’s a nice feature to have, though I didn’t use it much. It also tells you when to replace the brush head.
This seems like a good investment for oral care. It’ll take some getting used to and it’s not that convenient to use but both the flosser and brush does seem like it’s doing a good job at cleaning. It’s hard to tell how well it’ll work long term, but from what I’ve seen it’s powerful enough to really power clean your gums.

The Phillips Sonicare Power Flosser System is a perfect combination of a water flosser and a Sonicare electric toothbrush. I have used Sonicares for years and always have preferred them over other electric toothbrushes. Though I did own another brand water flosser in the past, I didn’t care for the loud noise or the operation (once on you had to hold the button on handle to not spray water). Phillips has improved on all of the shortcomings and includes a convenient charging base for the included Sonicare toothbrush.
First thing I noticed was how you can turn it on and select your operation mode (clean, deep clean, sensitive, or massage) without shooting water everywhere. The flosser handle magnetically attaches to the base and the cord neatly coils into the unit when not in use. Operation is very quiet, yet powerful and easily adjustable on the fly. It was simple to find a setting that worked well while accommodating my sensitive gums. While they include 3 nozzles to customize the flosser, I found the Quad Stream to provide the best performance. The pulse wave feature ramps the flosser pressure up and down chronically to help guide you from tooth to tooth, though I found myself staying in some hard to clean areas for multiple “cycles”. I am not sure it will completely eliminate the need to floss periodically with traditional filament, but it does a pretty good job and is far more convenient and easier on my gums.
The included Sonicare is a really nice toothbrush with all of the features you would expect. The toothbrush offers 3 cleaning modes and 3 power levels which offer a customizable cleaning experience. Operation was the familiar 30 second quadrant cleaning I was accustom to but it may be slightly quieter and stronger than my old handle. Though only 1 brush head is provided, Phillips does include a travel case and an extra charger that is separate from the power flosser base. Overall it is a really nice kit that provides everything you would need to improve and maintain your oral health.

This toothbrush and glosser has a lot of power bending it. The 3 different cleaning setting ensures that it caters to what you are trying to achieve. One thing I recommend is putting the toothbrush in your mouth before starting your cleaning cycle. This was one mistake I made because the vibrations knocked all the toothpaste off of the toothbrush. The cleaning cycle on this toothbrush has a very intense vibration. The deep cleaning setting gives a robust vibration whereas the gum health setting massages the gums. I particularly like this setting because it addresses the teeth and the gums. It’s gentle enough especially considering my teeth sensitivity. The water pic portion of the tooth brush is very effective. Again, I advise putting it in your mouth and putting your face over the sink before you start. It splashes a lot. The water floss portion gets deep between your teeth and cleans the gums. Overall I give this toothbrush 5 stars. It is very effective at cleaning your gums and teeth.

I have use the Philips Sonicare line of toothbrushes from years now, and have really enjoyed my previous hand that had Bluetooth and app connectivity to help promote better bushing and coverage. I have also been looking at various water flossers to better clean between my teeth, this knocks two things out at once! The combination base is excellent for my main bathroom, where I do the majority of my brushing and flossing, but they also include a brush only compact base for other areas of your home or while on the go! The app functionality is still amazing with brushing, allowing for accurate and well timed visuals to show that you have proper coverage of the six zones of teeth, but the integration with the water flosser is an excellent bonus, as well! This allows you to ensure you clean your entire mouth, without spending too much or too little time in each area. My dentist was already thrilled that I was using a Sonicare toothbrush before, and when he noticed the spaces between my teeth and my gums were looking cleaner and healthier, I told him I could only attribute that to using a water flosser now, too!
I would definitely recommend this toothbrush & water flosser combination system, it is truly everything you need for a healthier smile, except mouth wash, and it all fits cleanly and nicely into a smaller footprint on your bathroom counter than having two separate systems!

Sonicare toothbrushes are amazing, hands down. I’ve used them for a long time and always loved how well they clean my teeth and let you know exactly how long you need to brush. I’ve always used the cheaper versions of Sonicare, so I was really excited to upgrade to this model with all of its different modes and the accompanied water pick.
In the box you get the toothbrush, the water pick, three heads for the water pick, and an extra charger so you can charge the toothbrush by itself or on the stand attached to the water pick. The whole system takes up way less room than I thought, so I’ve just left the whole system out on my counter to keep everything in close reach.
The toothbrush works great. The head on this version is different than my cheaper Sonicare and I like the way it feels on my teeth. I can tell the bristles are stiff enough to get under the gums, but not too stiff to be uncomfortable. The toothbrush also has several cleaning modes for regular cleaning, deep cleaning, and gum health along with 3 power settings for each. I can’t say that I completely understand the difference between all the modes, but I can say that it is nice to have different power left settings so that I don’t have the toothbrush rattling my teeth out of my head.
Just as other Sonicares you get subtle vibration indicators when it’s time to switch between top and bottom teeth, it leaves very little thought to be had about brushing your teeth. The overall outcome is great, my teeth always feel clean and I never have to worry about anything getting left on my teeth.
The water flosser is a nice addition too. I haven’t used one of these since I was a kid with braces, but it works fairly well. There are again different modes and power levels to use the floser along with different heads to either have a more powerful or softer jet of water to floss with. Supposedly it works better than floss, though I’m not sure. I definitely felt like it cleaned in between my teeth well, though it did take some getting used to and the experience of constantly spitting water in the sink wasn’t the best.
Just to see how well the flosser did, I took regular floss to my teeth after using and still did get some plaque out from between my teeth. Not sure if it truly works as well as regular floss or it could be me needing to learn how to use it better.
Overall I really like the combo and think it will keep my teeth healthy and the added features from my cheaper Sonicare are nice to have and will come in handy if ever I feel like my teeth are super dirty.

I’ve been using Phillips toothbrushes for several years now. Their electric toothbrushes are modernly stylish, easy to use, travel easy, and most importantly, make my mouth feel clean. With the addition of the power flosser I’m more inclined to floss after I brush instead of using my normal disposable single use floss picks.
The toothbrush has 3 different cleaning modes. Clean, deep clean+, and gum health. Each brush mode has gyrates at a different pace and length of time to clean your teeth and gums. The brush head that came with the brush along with the different modes, do a really good job at leaving your mouth feeling clean and refreshed. You can also adjust the intensity but based on your brush and cleaning mode, it will automatically select the best mode for you. I brushed mostly on the high intensity for the best clean. As for the brush head it did a really good job at making my mouth and teeth feel clean when I was done brushing. No complaints with the brush or the function.
While we’re on the topic of the brush, in the box you get a stand alone charger as well as a travel case. The case and charger color match your brush color and the white brush looks very “crisp” and modern. The power flosser also includes a spot for the brush to sit so you can keep it all together. I just threw my standalone charger in my travel bag just in case, but using a previous version of Sonicare, I’ve spent 3-4 days without needing to charge my brush. I would expect the same from this one.
Finally you can use the Sonicare app and connect to the toothbrush to give feedback on statistics such as how often you brush, how long you brush and you can connect it to your apple health app if your into that stuff. I’m don’t expect myself to use this information that often but It’s good to know I have it.
The power flosser is the real selling point of this kit. I admittingly do not floss as much as I know I should, and my dentist knows that too. The power flosser makes me want to floss right after brushing. Setup is easy. Place the water reservoir on the base, fill the reservoir up with warm water. If your teeth are sensitive, keep in mind that you’ll be blasting them with whatever temperature water you put in the reservoir. Next select the floss head you want to use. The Philips website speaks highly of the “+” pattern head but the regular floss head was my preference. The head snaps in one way. Hit the power button on the base unit and use the switch on the wand to start/stop the flow of water.
Upon first use you want to start with low intensity and work your way up. If your gums are sensitive or you haven’t flossed in a while, higher intensities will likely make your gums bleed. I have pretty sensitive gums so I started low and worked my way up. Working the pick around and between my teeth, I found that getting too close stalls the pump so it took a bit of trial and error to find the perfect distance. I can also tell you accidently taking it out of your mouth without turning it off first will blast water at high speeds everywhere! I didn’t have any issues running out of water. In fact, I usually empty mine and use fresh warm water every time because my teeth are a bit sensitive to temperature. The hose is plenty long enough for my setup and the magnetic holder is a nice touch. I felt like the power flosser did a good job at removing debris and cleaning between my teeth. I do have my wisdom teeth and it is a bit harder to get between them but then again, so is food. I know that I’m going to floss more often just because of the convenience and ease of use and how available it is right next to my toothbrush.
If I could throw a few recommendations at the next version it would be to increase the height a bit and reduce the length. I find that for my sink real estate, it takes up just a bit too much room. This may not be an issue for most but I had to make room. Small price to pay for healthy oral hygiene.
MRWilson –
I have always been a little envious of my wife as she has always used the Philips Sonicare line compared to the Oral-B toothbrush I have used in the past, but upon using this system I am definitely convinced in making the right choice to switch to Philips Sonicare.
Firstly, right out of the box the setup of the product was extremely easy and you really don`t even need to use the instructions it is so simplistic, even if you have never used a water powered flosser before.
Everyone has probably used an electric toothbrush nowadays, but Philips takes it up a notch in a multitude of ways. Firstly, the look and feel make it seem like a premium product as it is not just cheap flimsy plastic. After getting past the cosmetics, the technology that Philips has packed into a toothbrush is definitely amazing. The Sonicare app is where this toothbrush starts to set itself apart as the toothbrush is Bluetooth and thus connects to the app in order to provide assistance with your brushing routine that entails the timing and pressure of the toothbrush along with also keeping track of the time until your toothbrush head needs replaced. The best part about the app though was that it was actually bug free on my IOS device (iPhone 13). Then finally in regard to the actual use and effectiveness it definitely was as expected, though different than the traditional Oral-B toothbrush I had been using as it had a different motion that I assume to be more effective as my teeth did have that clean feeling upon completion.
The second component was the water flosser, which was what I was most intrigued to use as I have always been a traditional floss sticks person. I will say that it was definitely an interesting experience as there is most certainly a technique to it as the first week or so of use you will have to be patient as excess water/mist will end up on the counter and it will take some time to get used to. However, after the first couple weeks it only takes about a minute and you`re good to go. The base was extremely quiet though and the multiple tips (especially the quad stream tip) was a great plus as it allowed a more personalized approach as opposed to just varying water intensities. The one qualm I did have with the flosser though was the cord as it was nice that it folds right back into the base and the magnetic back of the flosser was great, but the cord was very stiff and I did catch the base beginning to tip a couple times when the water level was becoming low. Additionally, there is that slight hassle to fill the reservoir up after each use, but compared to traditional flossing it is still easier though compared to my trusty floss sticks the verdict is still out until I can get some more use with the water flosser.
Overall, you really can`t go wrong with purchasing this product to take care of both your brushing and flossing needs. Yes, it is not perfect with the unsteady base at times and need to consistently fill up the reservoir, but the pros far outweigh the cons in that both the toothbrush and flosser allow an extremely personalized experience with the introduction of the Philips Sonicare app and the multitude of settings and heads within each individual item

I am a first time user of any type of water flossing device and I have to say, I’m kind of hooked. I really wish I would have begun using something like this years ago. I’ll say there was a bit of a learning curve. My first few uses I felt like I was spraying more water outside my mouth than in. So if this is you, don’t give up. With a few uses I figured out the proper mechanics and it has been a breeze since.
There are several settings and tips, each designed for a particular use. If you are a novice such as myself, I would suggest starting out on the lower intensity first, otherwise you may find yourself covering the sink, floor, and mirror with water. Ask me how I know. Once you figure out how to use it, definitely increase the intensity.
The handle is held magnetically to the base which is super convenient, and the cord automatically curls back into a recessed storage area. They’ve really thought of everything and the design is amazing. It actually looks great on our sink and I’ve had a few positive comments about it from friends.
This is actually kind of fun to use, and as crazy as it sounds, I look forward to using it. My teeth and gums feel clean and refreshed. I was really surprised at how well this works, and how much more it cleans around the gum line.
I have rather sensitive teeth and even on the most intense settings there was no discomfort. The interchangeable heads are easy to switch, and there is a nice hard shell case to store them in. Also included is a very nice hard shell travel case for the rechargeable toothbrush.
As for the toothbrush, hands down the best I’ve ever used. The first charge took several hours, in fact I wasn’t sure it was charging at first. Once the initial charge was complete I’ve had no issues with charging. The battery is solid and there is an indicator on the brush that displays the charge level. There is also a very small flashing indicator light for charging which I missed at first. Also included is a brush cover that clips onto the brush head when not in use. Like I said, they’ve really thought of everything.
The toothbrush is super comfortable, powerful, and really cleans. The brush heads can be easily changed, but are solidly connected to the handle. When you are done brushing, it sits nicely on the charging stand which is connected to the water floss base. And just like the water floss, this is a really nice looking toothbrush.
Overall everything is well designed, with a solid build and great aesthetics. Performance is amazing, and the thought out into both the water flosser, and the toothbrush shows. I would highly recommend this to anyone in the market.

I’ve been using Philips Sonicare toothbrushes for a number of years now, and I won’t spend a ton of time in my review on the toothbrush itself. This product is set up just like I would expect from any other Sonicare product. The integration of the base for the flosser and the toothbrush charger is a nice feature, and it saves space on the counter. I mention this because you won’t have any choice but to put it on the counter – it takes up some substantial room! After having previously used a Waterpik flosser that was a little messy, this is a nice change of pace. Philips has applied the same idea with the changeable toothbrush heads to their flossing system, and the tips are replaceable. The handle of the flosser is the same form factor as the tooth brushes and the water tube is self retracting nicely into the base. It’s also long enough to give you some working room when you want to floss, even though you won’t want to wander far from the sink anyway while you’re using one of these. Multiple cleaning modes and pulsing to the water stream serve similar functions as the toothbrushing letting you know when it’s time to change sides. Of course refilling the tank is dependant upon how often and for how long you use the flosser, but during my first few weeks I got at least 3 days out of each fill before I had to refill it. None of the modes are painful on my gums, and the deep clean feels like it is making a difference on my teeth and gums.
The added inclusion of the Sonicare toothbrush as well really tops this one off. The included brush has the 3 modes – Clean, Deep Clean and Gums, and it’s compatible with the wide range of Sonicare heads as well. This is the brush that I had already replaced most of my family’s with (or one similar) and I loved that there is a charger for it on the base of the flosser. Overall this is well made, and garners the room that it takes up on the counter. I love being able to answer “YES!” when the hygienist asks me if I’ve finally gotten around to flossing…

The Phillips Sonicare Power Flosser & Toothbrush System has many neat and useful features for dental hygiene. It helps provide dentistry type care for your teeth at home!
I loved how the Sonicare system includes so many accessories for home or when traveling. The system includes the Power Flosser 7000, a 600ml water reservoir, three different water flossing nozzles, a nozzle case, the ExpertClean 7300 Toothbrush, a toothbrush head plastic cover for when not in use, a travel carrying case, a travel charger/dock, and a carrying case where 2 brush heads fit (in case you and your partner are traveling together, it saves you space). Pretty much everything you can think of to take on the go too!
When using the Power Flosser, you have three different water flossing nozzles: the Quad Stream nozzle, comfort nozzle, and standard nozzle. The Quad Stream nozzle shoots out water in an “X” shape and is meant to cover more tooth area quicker. The comfort nozzle is meant for sensitive gums and the standard nozzle for regular, day to day cleans. The Power flosser itself also has 4 modes of flossing (clean, deep cleaning, sensitive, and massage) and 10 different levels of water pressure intensity. One of my favorite modes is the Deep Clean mode; it pulses water as you move through each tooth. Massage mode helps massage your gums for a relaxing, clean feel and the sensitive mode is for people who would like a gentler clean. I would say to definitely begin at a lower water intensity and then move the level up as your teeth and gums get used to the power flossing. Another neat feature I liked about the flosser is the magnetic dock. After flossing, the flosser can easily be placed back onto the magnetic dock and powers itself off.
One thing to note, if this is your first time using an electric toothbrush or flosser, it will take some getting used to and there is a small learning curve. However, after you notice the results of your oral hygiene (like I did initially), you will see how switching to electric was the best decision for your oral hygiene you could’ve made.
The ExpertClean 7300 toothbrush comes with 3 different brushing modes – clean, gum health, and deep clean+. With each mode, you can also change the level of intensity from 1 to 3. Like the power flosser, it would be good for you to begin at a lower intensity as your mouth and teeth become accustomed to the electric toothbrush sensation. You can turn on the toothbrush by pressing the power button or simply by pressing the button underneath it to select the brushing/clean mode. To adjust the intensity, select a brushing mode, press the power button, then hold the brushing mode button until your desired intensity is selected. Also, I recommend brushing at a 45 degree angle, as the manual recommends, and not at a straight 90 degree angle. This will ensure you brush properly, reducing vibration for a more comfortable clean without hurting your teeth or gums. After you finish brushing, you can easily charge it by placing it on the small docking station. Throughout my time using it, I noticed the battery lasted under an hour of total use. While this is not a whole lot of time, I can’t imagine anyone attempting to brush their teeth for extended periods of time and not going back to replace their toothbrush on the handy dock.
Lastly, one of the coolest features this Sonicare system has is the Bluetooth functionality and the Sonicare app. You are able to track your brushing schedule, how many uses for your toothbrush head you have left before it’s recommended to change out, update the toothbrush firmware, and more.
Other than the learning curve and taking some time to get used to, another downside is how messy it can get when using both the toothbrush and flosser system. For brushing, it’s necessary to keep your mouth open to ensure a proper clean, but can also cause toothpaste to fly from the toothbrush. As for the Power Flosser, water can be sprayed from your teeth to your surroundings and across the bathroom if not used carefully.
Overall, the Phillips Sonicare Power Flosser and Toothbrush System is a very nice upgrade to your standard manual toothbrush that also brings an upgrade to your oral hygiene. I definitely recommend it for someone looking into electric toothbrushes and would like a change in their oral hygiene. While it’s up to the person to completely make the change in their oral hygiene, this system definitely helps get you moving in the right direction.

The Flosser and Brush were easy to setup, and the brush had a decent charge out of the box. It would be helpful if it included one or more replacement heads since they can be harder to find at a decent price.
It includes the brush/flosser system, a second brush travel base/charger and case, 3 different floss heads with case, instructions.
The flosser combo is plug and play with the attached brush charger on the side. The water reservoir on top is removable to fill with water. There are 4 floss options with 10 intensity options for each.
I like the water flosser since I have a problem regularly flossing and this makes it easier for me to floss a couple times a week.
When finished flossing you have to empty the reservoir – it will leak if you do not (my only real negative for the system).
Brush works great, holds good charge. It’s supposed to have smart cleaning to adjust to your brush pattern. I cannot tell any difference from previous electric brushes. The travel case and charger is a nice option. I have not left it off the charger to test how many brushes it will go without a charge.
All in all a very good system.

Doesn’t take much space on the counter and definitely better than a regular toothbrush. Has a lot of features i probably wont use anytime soon but worth having just in case. Been using for about a month now can’t say anything negative so far.

I love love how small this is but powerful! It leaves my teeth feeling clean and even my dentist said it was working better for me. I wish there was more information about usint a whitening formula with the waterpik portion though!

I was pleasantly surprised with sonicare combo. Would recommend

Great addition for my routine. Since we have to do it on a daily basis why not enjoy a product from one of the best in the game.

Love everything about it besides how hard the bristles on the toothbrush are. They are literally hard as a rock! Not sure if I feel like it’s quite worth the price, but it’s still pretty new so hard to judge. It would be 1000% better if it came with different brushes for those who can’t use the ones that are extremely hard.

A great 2-1 combo as it not only charges your toothbrush but also has a decently sized resivor for the water floss. I do wish the floss was more powerful though as there are times which I end up flossing afterwards.

I am so pleased with this product. I debated and compared and ultimately it is better than I hoped. My teeth feel so clean. I highly recommend.

This product helps to remove food particles trapped between teeth . The results will be less plaque if any buildup, and fresher smelling breath!

Loving the water flosser and the sonicare toothbrush, the toothbrush was a replacement as we only use sonicare toothbrushes. The water flosser works great overall, compact foot print works well for our space and the reservoir is sufficient for a full mouth cleaning. The heads quickly click in and out for multiple people in a household to use.
