Oral-b Vitality Precision Clean Power Toothbrush
Oral-b Vitality Sensitive Clean Power Toothbrush
Oral-b Vitality Plus Crossaction Power Electric Toothbrush
And others…
Are these any different to the "Pro 500" model that's around the $50 mark?
Vitality vs Pro 500 vs Pro 1000
Looks like the only difference is the Pro 500 has a timer display on the handle, and buzzes every 30 seconds and alerts you at 2 minutes. Vitality only buzzes at two minutes.
Careful, some AU models have different specs to the US models.
Main difference is the Vitality has a 2D action in the way the motor spindle rotates and the Pro 500 has a 3D action
Grabbed one - seems pretty good.
Nice. Just bought the AMEX Dan Murphys (eGift) card and will use it on this. Thanks!
What's the go with these?
Do people not normally brush their teeth anymore?
I tried to oscillate my hand for two minutes but just couldn't get the frequency stable.
My dentist has told me to move on to these type of electric brushes. Apparently everyone wears into their teeth a particular way with a tooth brush causing issues.
I have sensitive teeth and gum. It bleed when i use a normal toothbrush. Doesn't happen with "these" so far.
Same - well rather than bleed my gums hurt with normal toothbrush but not electric.
They're really good, once you go electric you won't go back.
If you're after the upper end ones, Shaver Shop are also doing 40-50% off the Pro range, and Chemist's Warehouse too (better than Shaver Shop on at least the Pro 2 2000)
Our power plug is not conveniently located. how often do you have to charge it?
They last a few days easily. You can hear the pitch of the motor start to drop when they fade.
Been using for a few years. Brushing twice daily, should last you 4-5 days effectively & an overnight charge does the recharge trick.
$0.05 cheaper at The Shaver Shop: https://www.shavershop.com.au/oral-b/vitality-precision-clea…
However, as a long time user, let me warn you. Once the battery is gone, they can't replace or recycle it. It leaves such a bad taste in my mouth (pun intended). I would feel better if they can at least recycle the old one. Mine is about 3 years old and I'm not planning to buy a new one even though my current battery only lasts 3 minutes after charging overnight.
my advice is spend a little extra for the soocare x3, it is usually only $60 but its worlds apart, even when i upgraded from the vitality to one of the higher oral b models, the soocare x3 was still a massive improvement for the same price
I'm currently using the vitality and have a bunch of heads for it. Can they also be used for the higher model?
EDIT: did a quick search for brushheads on shavershop and looks like it is compatible with a few models according to the picture
Compatible:
-Triumph
-Professional Care
-Vitality
EDIT2: I re-read your comment and you are actually suggesting to get the Xiaomi Soocare X3 and not the higher oral-b models. I'll look into both. Thanks
I just bought a Soocare x3. $52 on eBay. Some good reviews out there.
Hi, can you please tell me which ebay seller and are they stocking locally or shipped from overseas.
Description says the battery lasts up to 25 days. I'm sold!
You're saying Xiaomi makes a better toothbrush than Oral-B? [thinking face emoji]
How much better than this Kids Electric Toothbrush $15
Thanks, was just after a new one. The previous one has really black icky bits which are impossible to remove.
FWIW, these are $20 at the Shaver Shop also. Being that they are marked down from $50, it's bound to please the OzBargainer more
