Oral-b Pro 1000 Crossaction Electric Toothbrush, Powered by Braun, Black and White, 2 Count

Battery doesn't last very long

I should have been suspicious, when I kept reading brilliant reviews about one of the cheapest electric toothbrushes in their range, just goes to show, always take notice of your Gut feeling.I have returned the item, and am annoyed to have wasted so much time on this terrible item.I suppose I will have to spend a lot of money to get the best electric toothbrush and I'm almost £90 down while I wait for the refund.

I haven’t used this yet for two reasons. Firstly, and most annoyingly it came with a US plug on it, so I will need an adaptor to use it. There was no indication that this would be the case before it arrived and no explanation even though my account is registered to a U.K. address. My other reason is that it takes 22hours for a full charge which seems excessive to me. I probably should have returned it, but I need a new toothbrush! And the reviews for this one are excellent.

¡Excelente cepillo! compre uno de pilas y fue un dolor de cabeza, vale mas la pena imvertir en uno recargable y este fue una muy buena opción.

Perfect gift for couples! It works well. The only comment I have is it has different plug. So check the description first.

### Design and Build Quality:The Oral-B Pro 1000 features a simple, ergonomic design that is easy to handle. It has a rubberized grip that ensures a secure hold, even when wet. The toothbrush comes with a single CrossAction brush head, which is angled to effectively reach between teeth and along the gum line. The design is durable, though it lacks some of the premium materials found in higher-end models. The toothbrush is available in a few different color options, typically white with blue or black accents.### Cleaning Performance:The Pro 1000 is equipped with a 3D cleaning action that oscillates, rotates, and pulsates to break up and remove plaque. This technology, combined with the CrossAction brush head, provides a thorough cleaning experience that is superior to manual brushing. Many users report a noticeable improvement in the cleanliness of their teeth and a reduction in plaque buildup. However, it doesn’t offer the same level of customization or advanced features as more expensive models, such as multiple cleaning modes or pressure sensors.### Battery Life:The toothbrush operates on a rechargeable battery that lasts about 7-10 days on a full charge, assuming two minutes of brushing twice a day. The battery life is decent, but it falls short of some higher-end models that offer up to two weeks or more. The Pro 1000 does not have a battery level indicator, so users need to be mindful of when it needs to be recharged.### Features:The Oral-B Pro 1000 is relatively basic in terms of features. It includes a built-in two-minute timer with 30-second intervals, which helps ensure users brush for the recommended amount of time and spend equal time on each quadrant of the mouth. However, it lacks additional features like multiple brushing modes, Bluetooth connectivity, or a travel case. This simplicity might appeal to users who prefer a straightforward brushing experience without the need for extra bells and whistles.### Value for Money:The Pro 1000 is competitively priced, making it an attractive option for those seeking an effective electric toothbrush without spending a premium. It offers solid performance for the price, providing a significant upgrade over manual toothbrushes and some lower-end electric models. While it lacks some advanced features, it delivers on the essentials of oral hygiene, making it a good value for most users.### Conclusion:The Oral-B Pro 1000 CrossAction Electric Toothbrush is a great option for those looking for a reliable and effective toothbrush without the complexity or cost of higher-end models. It excels in basic cleaning performance and ease of use, making it suitable for both new and experienced electric toothbrush users. While it doesn’t have many extra features, it covers the essentials well, providing good value for money.

Let me start this review by saying that when I was younger, much to my parent's dismay, I neglected to brush my teeth. I would brush them but not as often and as thoroughly as a child should. This was partly due to my very bad gag reflex and partly due to the fact that it felt painful (?). Anyway, I've had yellow teeth my whole life (I'm 29) because of it. I never got braces (thanks again gag reflex) but my parents tried everything to get me to have better oral hygiene and to have a more aesthetically pleasing smile. Now that I'm well into adulthood, my smile being so yellow, and also very crowded, was starting to bother me. I knew I had to give in and fix one or the other. (To be clear if you have crooked teeth don't feel like you have to change yourself just for society - after 29 years, I can say that I truly wanted to change the yellowness purely for myself). I've gotten healthier in almost all other aspects of my life. I decided to make the plunge and buy this in hopes it would help get my teeth cleaner and help reduce plaque buildup. Not just for aesthetics, but for actual oral hygiene.So, I've used it twice a day for 3 days so far and my brother commented on how "white" my teeth look yesterday evening. That felt very good to hear, not gonna lie. I think this toothbrush is amazing for the price. I love how tiny the head of the brush is. It fits into my small, overcrowded mouth perfectly. I was worried that it would take forever to brush my teeth since I wasn't doing the work, the toothbrush was. However, it takes about 2 minutes and 30 seconds or 3 minutes if you're extra thorough. It allots 30 seconds to each section of your mouth, it will do a variation in the vibration to let you know when the 30 seconds is up and to move to the next portion of your mouth. It doesn't automatically shut off after 3 minutes (that I know of) if you want to go back and do another section of your mouth, which is nice. As for the pressure sensor on the toothbrush, mine does not work. It doesn't indicate any color or anything. It just appears to be a normal electric toothbrush. I may have gotten a "bad" toothbrush since it's not working, but to be honest, I truly just wanted something that would do a deep clean and this toothbrush does that. However, all the other reviews mention the sensor working so if that's something you're looking for, I would still highly recommend this toothbrush. I think mine might just be a dud in that department. The charging took several hours to be full on the first day. I keep it on the charger to ensure that it is always fully charged. If you don't have your charger with you and you need to rely on it without it, I'm told the battery lasts up to a week. Which, is very impressive for a $50 toothbrush. Amazon says that it has Bluetooth connectivity but I do not see any indication of that on the boxes or in the manual. My parents bought me an electric toothbrush when I was little, but I was too young to appreciate it. Now that I'm older, I think this is a great option for any person of any age. I do recommend it!

He estado usando el Oral-B Pro 1000 CrossAction y me ha gustado mucho. La limpieza es más profunda que con un cepillo manual: ayuda a eliminar placa y cuidar las encías de manera más eficiente. El temporizador integrado facilita completar los dos minutos recomendados, guiando 30 segundos en cada cuadrante. Además, el cabezal redondo llega a zonas difíciles con mucha más facilidad que un cepillo convencional.
