The toothbrush definitely offers a very intense vibration which I feel like it is cleaning. I do wish that the brush head occilatted as opposed to just heavy vibration from the control stick. If you are sensitive to intense vibration then this toothbrush is not ideal. I do appreciate the softer brush heads since that is what is recommended by dentist. I do, however, wish the brush head was larger. The many brush heads offered is nice and the charging station is compact in scale. Overall, not a bad electric toothbrush for the price but there are better ones but of course more expensive. The look is sleek and modern.
