I ordered a Sonic toothbrush from Amazon and while I waited for it to come, heard the ad for the Quip. I decided to try the Quip (I have never had an "electric" toothbrush). The toothbrush came from Amazon and I did not open it, decided to wait for my Quip.
When the Quip came, I immediately liked the slimline, just the total feel of the brush and the fact that I did not have to have a charging base for the toothbrush.
My first experience with the Quip I thought that two minutes was the longest two minutes in my life! I had never timed my brushing but think I was doing about 30 seconds! The second time I used the Quip the time did not seem as long, now it does not seem long enough! I actually enjoy brushing my teeth!
Needless to say, the other Sonic brush went back to Amazon!
I am ordering five more for Christmas presents!
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
