Amazon. UK is cheaper than US store.

qoo10 is your next best bet if you are really price sensitive esp if you are not getting a lot of stuff to share shipping from the UK store, but you'd need that initial leap of faith and some homework.

I bought 18 brush heads when i bought from Amazon UK my Waterik WF-03. :D

Seems a few of you guys recommend Amazon UK? So no choice must pay for the shipping one? Probably gonna get 2 sets of the Oral B 2500. And a set of those sensitive brush heads.

Since people in this thread seem to be pro-flossing ...

Does anyone know where I can still buy those expanding type floss? Seems these days all the supermarkets as well as all the Guardian, Watson, Unity etc only sell tape / waxed type floss.

Depends, Amazon US and UK prices fluctuate from time to time.

Can check Ebay too. There are 2-packs which cost a bit less.

Main "issue" is that the string floss does nothing for subgingival below-the-gumline cleaning. So that's why it did not work for my SIL, while the water pik (jet and pik pocket tips) were able to penetrate quite deep.
Not only talking about the areas in between the teeth, but also the inner and outer sides out of the teeth.

She complained freaking lots of blood sprayed out at first though even on low power. Already expected that, so that's why i told her to do it while sitting on a stool in the shower area. :s13:

Can't help it......totally fooked up gums.

Taobao lagi cheaper.

I use the originals bought from Amazon UK (bought quite a lot coz tagged on shipping). But i find the TB ones to be pretty ok. Basically just a bit stiffer than the originals (eg crossaction).

My wife, MIL, FIL and mother/father using the 3rd party ones. Coz i am sponsoring, so bo bian no budget to let everyone use originals.
My 2 kids using the 3rd party kids ver, is even softer than original Oral B and do a great job.......every 3 months change once.

Get the Sensitive ver.

I bought waterpik Aquarius from Amazon US. cannot be switched on. Emailed them and they refunded me the money.
Bought it again, same problem. Now waiting to get back my money.

I'm using Philips sonicare healthwhite+. I don't know is it good but alot of users recommending it.

I thought you mentioned that you'd need a voltage convertor (240V -> 110V) with it, and is in the process of getting one?

Not sure if it uses a wall adapter or is a direct connection to the device. If wall adapter, then it's 99.9% multi-voltage capable.
