  sonicare protective care 6100 vs oral b series 10

  Good Lord! that series 10 has lots of bells an whistles. i'm s dentist with 42 years of experience. Plain and simple but good quality wins the day. Oral B Pro 1000 works quite well. Got kids? get two of em or get one with extra brush heads. these folks agree with me: [https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-electric-toothbrush/](https://www.nytimes.com/wirecutter/reviews/best-electric-toothbrush/) under $50

  Is there an electric toothbrush that's actually worth it?

  I like the cheap Braun Oral-B I have because you can find the replacement tips everywhere and they don't cost fortune like on the more expensive toothbrushes.

  Would this electric toothbrush be BIFL since it uses regular AAA batteries?

  The AAA battery toothbrushes are not as good as the rechargeable one. get an Oral B Pro 1000....

  What's the best electric toothbrush money can buy with replaceable batteries and brush-heads?

  You’re right, electric toothbrushes with replaceable batteries aren’t super common these days. Most brands are pushing built in rechargeable ones instead. From what I’ve seen the oral-b pro 100 and philips one by sonicare are decent budget options but they don’t have the same power as higher end models. If you’re open to rechargeable brushes, I came across a [discussion here](https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplianceAdvice/comments/1j37xwn/oral_b_sonicare_nah_this_electric_toothbrush_is/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) about a really nice alternative that a lot of people recommend- the aquasonic black series. Might be worth a look if battery swapping isn’t a dealbreaker for you!

  Which oral b electric toothbrush should I get?

  After some research and personal experience, I’d say if you’re looking for something that cleans well without breaking the bank, the Oral-B Pro 1000 or the Oral-B 3000 are solid choices. Both are well under $150 CAD and offer great cleaning power with a 3D cleaning action. They don’t have all the fancy features of the high-end models, like pressure sensors or app connectivity, but they’ll get the job done efficiently.

  I"m Trying to decide between this selection of older models of Oral B-electric toothbrushes.

  I recently purchased the Pro 1000 based on wirecutter. It was under just $40 on amazon, has a pressure sensor (not visual, it makes a different noise and stops vibrating the same way), and has the 2 minute timer with buzz demarcations every 30 seconds with 3 buzzes at the end. Battery life \*should\* last 7 days with 2x per day usage, but I haven't tested that away from a charger yet. No opinion on the heads yet, just using the standard. I know Costco has multi packs of basically all of the most popular models on sale regularly that will save a decent amount of money. I know the pro model heads are cheaper than the iO and they're not interchangeable. I almost got one of the iO models with the little screen, but it seems excessive. In the wc article, it talks about those being good for people with adhd that need reminders on their phone, etc.

  Best electric toothbrush?

  another vote for phillips sonicare. I used the Braun Oral-Bs for years, which worked great and last forever, but they are louder and a tad more violent for lack of better word. Granted there are various price points and I never bothered with the high end brauns.
