The sonicare 5000 electric toothbrush is just what the dentist ordered. I really like it because it's light charges up and it's easy to use in my small mouth. I was able to take a trip recently and it was perfect for travel and cleaned my teeth so well. I know my next dentist appointment will be awesome along with flossing.

not your high end, but not low end mechanical tooth brushes. this is the third of this model I have bought. the last two lasted 5 years each. worth the money.

The sonicare is really good at removing the plaque between your teeth. I'm still getting used to it - but glad I bought it.

Love!

My first time buying an electric toothbrush and I love it. It's so soft on my teeth and gums. I love the timer. I love the sensor definitely worth the purchase. (:

Some good, some not so good

anonymous July 21, 2026

There are pros and cons to this compared to a round head Oral-B type brush. This is a little more like using a standard toothbrush. One unexpected thing is because of how it vibrates if your tongue touches it it's pretty unpleasant feeling. Nice that it has a gum cleaning setting but missing things like vibrations every 30 seconds to let you know to move to a new part of your mouth like some brushes have.

It's good but honestly probably could have gone with the 3000 model and been just as fine. I was looking at the 7000 series because of the next gen or whatever but then i decided im not gonna pay an extra 50 bucks for access to a tooth brushing app. Overall im happy I went with this one and think it's the best bang for your buck for soniccare electric brushes.

Have not used it yet. Hope it works better than the other one I bought from Walmart and same brand. It didn't last but about 6 months. It was so hard to press the start button. I gave up %26 ordered a new one

Weak Motor

anonymous July 31, 2026

Phillips sonicare toothbrushes have severely dropped in quality. The toothbrush i was replacing had a better motor than this new one. I regret my purchase.

I do not like that it does not come with a charger plugin for the wall plug. also i keep searching and cannot find the power level for correct wall plug. why make it so jar to find this infirmation. Will not buy again

UNAUTHORISED SUBSITUTION-BAD PRODUCT-LOST MONEY

Joseph March 24, 2026

I ordered 2 toothbrushes -100 series. They substituted to one toothbrush- 5000 series without my approval, and charged $64 in lieu of $44 for my initial order. Then, they refused to refund me because I don't have time to return it to the store. I have to go overseas, and do not have time to go to a Walmart store. So I have to pay for their disregard of customers need. I do not believe this is legal. I have experienced such frustration with any store at all. I DO NOT LIKE THE SUBSTITUTION. I HAVE LOST THE TIP I GAVE TO THE DRIVER. AND, I ENDED UP WITH ONE TOOTHBRUSH INSTEAD OF TWO. WITH MONEY LOST IN THE PROCESS.
