I didn't actually purchase my Goby Toothbrush, it came with a dental advantage plan I signed up for through Dental Works. They send me a replacement brush every 3 months as long as I keep my membership. ANYWAY, this is my first electric toothbrush so I don't have anything to compare it to, but the amount of clean I feel after using this is comparable to a regular 6-month cleaning at my dentist. I like the streamlined look, simple to use, 2 min timer with 30-second vibe so you switch quadrants, and the sturdiness. I don't feel like this brush will fall apart and will last a long time. I love it!
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
