At last, I’ve found a toothbrush I’m truly happy with! The Suri Electric Toothbrush’s sleek, ergonomic design makes it a pleasure to use, and the bristles are gentle on my gums yet incredibly effective at removing plaque and food particles. Since switching to Suri, I’ve noticed a remarkable improvement in the health and appearance of my teeth. They feel noticeably cleaner and even appear whiter. And let’s not forget the stylish design — it’s a refreshing change from the usual, boring toothbrushes. Overall, I’m thrilled with my Suri Electric Toothbrush and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a superior cleaning experience.
The toothbrush arrived already charged. So far, I have found it perfect for my needs: my old electric toothbrush was far too big & clumsy, and harsh. The Suri is soft & slender which in practical terms means it is easy to hold and negotiate around every tooth, nook & cranny thoroughly and softly, leaving my teeth squeaky clean. I really like that it turns off automatically after a couple of minutes, and that it is so smooth there is v. little splatter. It’s great that you can park it in that little magnet thingy that just sticks on the tiles with no sticky mess. With my old set-up, I never took it with me on trips because it and the case was too heavy & bulky and I needed to take the charger. The Suri is so neat & tidy with a long charge I can pack it into my tote no problem. Last but by no means least it is apparently sustainable. Hurrah!
I feel like it’s the cleanest my teeth have ever been. It is a pricy toothbrush, luckily I got it on a prime day deal but I really feel it’s worth the expense. My teeth feel like I’ve just had a clean at the dentist. I’ve previously used other electric toothbrushes and there is usually drips and mess at the bottom where they stand. This toothbrush is much sleeker and the magnetised holder keeps it out off the way with no mess or drips. The battery lasts for so long without charging. I also bought the case which I’ve used when travelling. This is also used to clean the brush once a week. This is the only charging I have done. The toothbrush is really quiet as well. Some other toothbrushes feel like they’re really rattling around in your mouth. This one doesn’t do that. It’s quiet and doesn’t vibrate very much at all. I would 100% recommend this toothbrush.
I previously had a Philips sonicare which I got on well with and lasted a very long time, but I ended up swapping to manual eco friendly toothbrushes. Recently found Suri toothbrush and decided to make the return to electric. Being eco friendly was the first attraction and being a sonic toothbrush I knew I was likely to get on with it.
Well packaged, lightweight, the vibrations are comfortable, two modes for simple ease of use. Nice inconspicuous charger, I do like that it is USB as always going to have a lead for it somewhere. The UV case is a nice idea, 2 improvements that would make it better 1) have storage for 2 heads. 2) the case have its own battery for running the UV light and charging the tooth brush.
The one feature from my old toothbrush that I miss is the two 15 sec high power polishing cycles at the end of the cleaning cycles.
Overall though very impressed, is quiet, comfortable and easy to use. Only time will tell regarding the cleaning power.
Positives – I don’t notice a major difference from the Philips Sonicare – although perhaps the Suri is a little more gentle? Battery life is very impressive. I generally don’t need to recharge more than once a fortnight. Over the summer holiday, ironically I didn’t need to charge it over the two week break. But it was nice not having to take an additional charger.
However, it hasn’t lasted or worn as well as the Sonicare. This is 11 months in. The finish at the base has begun to wear away. I’ve not dropped it or chipped it. It just seems that the plastic is coming away at the base and around the button. It then rather shocked me that the disposable head snapped off when I was brushing my teeth this morning. I had to avoid choking! So I would certainly avoid using this for anyone under the age of 16!
To be fair, it is quite a bit cheaper than the more expensive-end of the Sonicare line-up. But would I buy it again? After 11 months, I’m not so sure.
ADDITION 11/09/2024: The customer service team reached out and resolved the issue – well done them.
Now, the thing I really like is that it’s kind to the environment. They’ve made the brush heads out of plant-based stuff, and everything feels recyclable which is bang on. Price-wise, it’s definitely not cheap, but it’s not silly money either. You’re paying for a quality bit of kit here.
Looks-wise, it’s a right stunner. Nice and sleek, feels good in the hand despite being a fair bit slimmer than my old brush. Makes a surprisingly hefty weight too, feels proper well-made. Cracking little feature is the magnetic holder that sticks to the mirror. Keeps the brush up off the side, so it dries out nicely – no more gunk build-up from sitting in its own mess.
Honestly, I can’t recommend this enough. If you’re after a top-notch electric brush that’s good for your teeth and the planet, the Suri’s a belter.
A few highlights:
1. I love the battery life on this toothbrush – In the last 3-months, I’ve done 1 full charge when I first bought it, and a quick 1 hour charge. It’s still going strong… at this rate, I probably won’t need to charge it again until late next month.
2. This is a quality product – I was hesitant at first with the cost, but with the environmental benefits, the quality aluminium finish, the feel of it’s weight and balance of it in the hand… and even the little touches like the neat magnetic pads that help you stick it against the mirror – I’m more than satisfied that it was worth the money.
3. I detest being told what to do by any digital device – none of that nonsense here. You’ll feel a momentary pause every thirty seconds or so, just reassuring you that you’re on the right track… and most importantly – easily ignored when you’re in a rush.
4. Never felt cleaner teeth – if you’ve been using electric toothbrushes for a while, you’ll probably know about this already, but as someone who’s been doing the good ‘ol manual way all my life, it’s impressive how much cleaner the teeth can get without getting a dentist involved.
So, if you’ve read this far and you’re still waiting for my recommendation: Keep it simple, keep it Suri
