Was picking up a One Direction Singing Toothbrush (not for me, I swear) and saw one of these advertised for $17 instore. Not sure if nationwide but $19 on HN website.

How does it compare to the Triumph 5000?
A quick research on the Oral B website indicates that it doesn't compare favourably with the Triumph, although the cheapest price I could find online for Australian stock was 8 times the price of the Precision Clean.
i got a couple just for the charging dock and extra brush heads, they cost more on their own individually, no kidding.
Why do you need extra docks?
i have a professional care 1000 that uses the same dock, had 1 die on me last year so bought the vitality to replace. just bought another recently when they were ~$24 so i could have another for travel…
The oral-b eletric toothbrushes all come with a 2-yr warranty. I got my dock replaced for free with no fuss at all after owning it for 22 months.They even sent it by post at no extra cost.
Same here. Had a few in the past. Most of them had the batteries die and stop recharging. Also had one of the charger docks stop working as well.
I totally agree with you on the cost of the docks. We bought 2 pack Triumph 5000, they come in all sorts of packages. Our particular package only included 1 dock.
This got me looking to buy another dock, I discovered the cheaper models use the same dock and cost less than buying the dock on its own.
Anyone know a good place to buy genuine replacement heads?
I bought some "compatible" ones a few months ago and they are garbage.
Chemist Warehouse seems to have decent prices. Won't necessarily beat a special elsewhere, but low enough that I don't really mind.
Can recommend this brush. Teeth are so white after a week of using it once a day, everyday.
Only once a day?
Hey, hey.
It's better than the once a month I used to with a manual toothbrush.
No - I'm not even kidding. :/
That is yuck
$19.99 at Coles if that's more convenient. The Professional Care 500 is $49.99 if you can find stock.
Went to Coles just then and they said the brush was $42. :(
Might've been just the Chatswood one, but more likely just a new week? (Coles specials go Wed-Tues)
Where's the video?
I want to know as well.
replacement heads are $8.07 (in a 3 pack) so the brush and charger are just an extra 86c :)
Anyone in dentistry care to explain why the big difference in prices with electric toothbrush from $19 to all $200+? What's the main difference? Don't they all just have electric motor that turn the brush?
I'm no dentist, but I just bought the Triumph 7000 and during my research I found the main thing to look for was the oscillations per minute. From the Oral B 3000 and up I believe that they are at 14,000 oscillations per min. The 3000 is a great brush which Shaver Shop had (and may still have) half price for $99.95. The vitality or the 500 just didn't seem to cut the mustard for me but I guess it all depends on your budget.
I don't think anyone should pay $200 for this brush as its a bit outdated and has a few less modes than the Triumph 5000 and 7000, however at $99.95 this is pretty good value and has been one of their best brushes over the years. the 5000 introduces the LCD screen and the 7000 makes it black. Thats literally about it other than a fancy case. a couple of different modes but lets face it, most of these modes are probably not going to be used. Reason I bought it over the 5000 is that the 7000 when on sale for $179 worked out cheaper as the 5000 wasn't on special and i think shaver shop wanted about $239 or something!!!
Either way I would recommend if you can justify the money on getting one that oscillates at 14,000opm over these $19 ones as your mouth will thank you in the long run. AND stick to your 2 minute brushes each time!
You sure the Triumph 7000 does 14,000 oscillations per min?
it says 8,800 here:
http://www.shavershop.com.au/online-store/oral-care/electric…If both 3000 and 7000 provide 40,000 pulsations and 8,800 oscillations per minute, guess it's better for me to start with a 3000 for a first timer eh? definitely don't need all those fancy brushing modes & bluetooth in 7000..any other advantages 7000 has over 3000 in practical sense?
See, this is precisely why ozbargain is so useful haha.. look what happens when you are in bed and too lazy to get up to look at the box. Thanks for the pick-up.
so say if I want to spend more than $19 for an electric toothbrush, which one should I go for? Listening for suggestion..it has to be able to brush my gum gently, as my gum bleeds easily..
That seems to be more a function of the brush head than the powered handle. Maybe try the "sensitive" heads?
sky1 Off to dentist and Doctor you GO.
If you are not on asprin orsomething like Warfrin there may be a medical and dental check up required.
I would not hold with 'delicate' bleeding gums, as you may need Warfrin sooner than you would like - which is never - or too late as gum disorders / disease can affect/effect the heart [challenge as both the correct use of affect/effect]- or leukemia and bleeding and platelet disorders or Gingivitis and Periodontitis? The list goes on.
If no solution change doctors and dentist and salt washes do not last eithor. Good b. luck.
What 1D song does it sing? Does it sing or is it just a branded sticker? Who wouldn't mind waking up and going to bed with 'Beautiful' playing.
$19 at the Shaver Shop too - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/172358
