Waterpik Cordless Express Water Flosser, Battery Operated & Portable for Travel & Home, ADA Accepted, Waterproof for Shower Use, White WF-02, Packaging May Vary

I purchased this battery operated WaterPik 5 months ago and it works great!The pulsating water gets food particles out of those hidden areas that brushing cannot possibly get out. It has 2 speeds of which I always use on high because there's more force behind the water pulse action which will help to remove any stubbornly stuck particles.I always brush my teeth first using an electric tooth brush, then I use the WaterPik. And every time I use it I always see more food particles fall into the sink, which means the WaterPik is cleaning where the tooth brush can't. This alone makes me very glad I purchased the WaterPik.The water container holds enough water for about 30 seconds of use, but it's very easy to quickly refill it. The unit came with 2 identical flosser tips which are easily exchanged when needed. Also there are a multitude of other tips available, I purchased a separate variety pack of 8 tip styles on Amazon.Battery life is not the greatest but that's easily overcome by using rechargeable batteries (I use Eneloop rechargeable batteries). The battery drainage is not really noticeable, i.e., the water pulses gradually become less powerful over time but you don't notice the gradual decrease. After about 2 weeks you can finally notice a decrease in power. It's really noticeable when you change the batteries after 2 weeks, after which you feel more powerful water pulses once again. Therefore because of this, I simply recharge the batteries every week to maintain powerful water pulses.The battery compartment is very tight (with rubber gasket) and not easily opened or closed. The tightness is expected in order to maintain a water free compartment to prevent short circuit damage. Nevertheless since I change the batteries often it has gotten easier over time.Additionally the clear plastic water container can be removed for cleaning. This is how it worked for me. Push it downward towards the bottom of the unit and it will slide off. When re-installing it push hard to get the rubber gasket at the top to seal properly. There is a plastic clip on the back of the water container and a mating clip on the WaterPik body and they need to mate with each other when installing, therefore push hard when re-installing.Lastly the cordless battery operation makes this unit very portable and easy to use, and to take with you on travel. I'm very happy with this purchase and I do recommend it to others.

This is perfect to pack for travel. Little lighter pressure than full size, but great value & does the job.

I don't entirely know how I should review this. It works, and that should not be a surprise since this is the name brand. It is one of the cheapest options for a water flosser at about $30 and a good option if you want to try one out for the first time. Mine also stopped working (temporarily) after 1 year and 9 months.I don't know if the quality or the design of the internals is the real issue. It was a decent run for the price, but the name brand shouldn't suddenly fail like that. I think my ultimate issue was that the rotating arm you can see in the picture wiggled out of place, making it appear to be broken because it could not turn on.It worked again after reassembly, so it remains to be seen how long the internals will last. They look to be pretty good quality.For anyone else who had theirs stop working after a year or two, this should be fixable by just prying off the power slider (preferably with something plastic so you don't scratch it) and rotating/pressing the crank piece back into place. Make sure any flying plastic pieces don't get lost. If that doesn't do it, you will have to carefully cut through the weld at the bottom of the device and remove the slider and mouthpiece before sliding the internals out. A youtuber called TanakaBeat made a video showing how to do it for a similar model.The pros: Cheap, potentially good for travel, works fairly well, lasted nearly 2 years so farThe cons: bad design so that it stops working after a year or two (until fixed), difficult to disassemble to fix their bad design

I love the product. It works so well to get food particles that flossing can miss and I love the portability to take traveling and keep my counter less cluttered. I use it a couple times a day. I have a couple of root canals and “pockets” where food gets stuck and it’s so frustrating. Trying to floss it’s out sometimes leads to injury but the waterpik works instantly every time.They have a 1 year warranty. My waterpik wouldn’t turn on for some reason after 4 months. I got on their website via a link through my Amazon order info and chose the live chat option. Immediately, a rep responded and walked me through some trouble shooting steps. When those didn’t work, she filed a warranty claim and they’re sending me a new one! Took only a few minutes and minimal effort. They just asked a few questions on the product, did the trouble shooting and requested either a pdf of the order details or a screenshot. I sent it through the chat. Seriously, best customer service and it was so easy.
