Everyone should use electric toothbrushes vs manual. My husband works in dental and we have tried many brands of electric tooth brushes. Any of the Phillips electric brushes are THE BEST. We have used the $200 versions and the lower price point versions and honestly all you need is this low cost version. Easy to use. Easy to charge. It does a fantastic job. Don’t be off put by the cost of replacement brushes because we buy the “knock off” 鶹 heads that are fantastic . (See other reviews of mine for brand) But definitely stick with Phillips Sonicare only for your electric brush. The other brands do not compare.
