4th one, not a charm.
This is the fourth electric Oral B toothbrush I've owned. All have stopped working as soon as the warranty ended. This one didn't hold a charge very well (even when brand new).

Charger Failed After 6 Months
This is a decent value, and the brush is effective. However, the charger has failed after only 6 months. The charger was not dropped and did not get wet, it simply failed spontaneously.

Mixed results
Just bought this and love the cleaning action. However, the pressure sensor is way to sensitive and even goes off when just running it under water to clean it.

Extremely bad design, safety hazard, DO NOT BUY!
This tooth brush is very smooth and slippery and slides around in your hand. You cannot hold it or prevent it from slipping because the handle tapers down to the brush end instead of tapering down to the charger end. All my other electric tooth brushes taper down to the charger end and have ribs on the handle so you can just grip the handle normally and it won't slide. This might not mean much to you unless you have to brush around a sensitive spot like a recently pulled tooth. My brush slipped and damaged my gum where a tooth was recently pulled, now I have a new dental problem. DO NOT BUY THIS BRUSH even if it's free. You cannot return an electric tooth brush for a refund.

Good toothbrush but charging light way too bright
As a toothbrush it's great. I feel like it cleans well and is comfortable to use. The charging light is ridiculous though. It's so bright and flashes so much when charging. I can't sleep with my bathroom door open because it's so bright.

Great cleansing action; difficulty with modes
Last year I bought Oral B model 3791, Pro1000. Due to the descriptor I expected three different modes of cleansing. I have yet to know if I've changed any of the modes, despite my attempts to do so. I use whatever mode it is in - unsure if I've adjusted the original mode. It has a strong rotation and cleansing action. My plaque has diminished per my dental hygienist with my 2 min brushing, twice daily. I changed the brush head to the sensitive brush head which is more comfortable for my gums. I am in my 70s and do have receding gums. I am happy with the Oral B toothbrush's effectiveness, but disappointed that I can't adjust the modes more easily and with confidence I've done so.

Clean teeth but poor design
My teeth felt super clean since first use. My teeth feel as clean as after my hygienist polishes them.....However, the timer pause feature is an extreme annoyance. Even though I know it's a normal feature it makes the toothbrush feel as if there's something wrong with the battery or something internally is stuck. I would prefer that Oral B not do my thinking for me and give the option to turn the timer off. I can count and/or look at a click. I've noticed other people have the same issue as my 2nd problem which is power it off. It's very annoying one must either hold on the power button for three seconds or press it three times to shut it off. Having this speed feature may be a good idea but having a separate button would be better design as the choice given to turn it off either causes a mess on the mirror or fumble around with it in your mouth. I wonder ORAL B had any product testing or if someone in development team made an arbitrary decision because that was his or her preference. Both issues I see with this brush seems to indicate little thought when adding these features. The two problems are minimal and more of an annoyance than a problem with it's function. It would be nice if companies used real world typical use in their design. With the amount of money companies spend on product design and R & D one would think this would be much better design but seems they don't it's there money's worth.
