I decided to try Quip out after hearing several podcast hosts I listen to talk about how much they liked it. I honestly expected it to be mostly a gimmick but I decided to give it a shot after 2 years of not exactly being in love with my previous electric toothbrush.
The Quip brush heads are much gentler on my gums (my old brush would make them bleed with some regularity) and as goofy as I thought it was at first, the reminder pulses do actually make me more diligent about brushing for the required amount of time. My teeth feel generally cleaner and healthier since I made the switch.
$5 for 1 replacement head is a bit pricey considering I can get 2 for the same price of my old brush, but it's hard to argue with the convenience of having them shipped to you on a schedule. I can't tell you how many times I was way overdue for a new brush head but was too busy or lazy to hit the store and get a new one.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
