Rating: - Essence e 5300
My husband bought the Advance when it came out many years ago. It recently wore out & was immediately replaced. It was replaced with the Essence e5300. My husband says he likes the new one even better.

Rating: - Cleans teeth well and improvement over prior models
I upgraded from the model 4700 when the batteries died after about 5 years. This toothbrush is lighter to handle and seems to clean even more effectively than the 4700. I do miss the feature that gave a slight sound after each 30 second interval (called the quadpacer feature), but was able to learn pretty quickly how many long to brush each section by just adding a small clock with second hand to my bathroom counter.

Rating: - Now I actually LIKE brushing
I bought this about a month ago to replace my terrible Oral-B Vitality which had died after less than a year. (You get what you pay for.) My boyfriend has been a Sonicare fan for a few years, and I decided to give it a try since he has very white teeth and never uses whitening products.

The difference is AMAZING. The toothbrush ramps up the intensity over the first 12 uses to prevent you from having a freak-out over the buzzing, but you'll be glad it gets up to its full power because it's a great feeling. Your teeth will actually FEEL and look brighter, and this is with regular toothpaste and no whitening strips or whatever. On a mildly gross note, when I floss post-Sonicare, I am ... Read More
