A few weeks after I bought it, I saw Philips Sonicare advertised as low as $37.00. I know they have different models at different prices. Mine has a built in timer so that it shuts off after 2 min.. That's to make sure you brush for at least two minutes. The trouble is: It always shuts off before I'm finished. I find that anoying. Then it has 5 settings (for vibrations?) and I have a hard time telling the difference between them. So that's another wasted feature, in my opinion.
I called the company and they recommended Philips Sonicare Essence. It's sold at Walmart and should be less expensive. If I like it, I can then return the one I bought from the dentist.
What do you think? Do you have one? Do you like it? Any recommendations for other brands?

We apparently go to the same dentist, I got the same brush.....have noticed a difference with my teeth (dentist did too) and the dentist is WONDERFUL!
