FOREO ISSA play Silicone Electric Toothbrush, Summer Sky

I never write reviews for a product even if it's a product I like but, I have to say for this product is worth it. I recently have been using this toothbrush but not for very long though. But, I have to say I do love this toothbrush the best part of this toothbrush is that it doesn't hurt my teeth or gums at all when I brush even if I brush hard it doesn't hurt me at all. I also noticed that it takes the food leftover from my teeth so I feel that my teeth are smooth and clean.The other good parts about this toothbrush is that its small enough that if I wanted to I can put it in my purse and take it with me and use it whenever I go out after I've eating somewhere, since it doesn't have a rechargable wire and it runs on 2AAA batteries that I don't have to replace until a couple of months or so..(at least that's what I've read from others). I would recommend this toothbrush to anyone who is like me who wants a electric tooth brush that's travel friendly and that has senstive gums and teeth this product is for you.

Cannot recommend this device. I bought it for travel, and it's already broken. Here is the email I wrote to customer service (after I couldn't get ahold by phone), and I have received no response from them.Dear customer service at Foreo,I am sorry to be writing with a complaint, but I am deeply disappointed by my new Foreo Issa Play toothbrush. I purchased the toothbrush with excitement on June 25th (see the Amazon invoice below) for a trip that I am on currently. I have been using the toothbrush for ten days now, and two days ago it started to "short" (for lack of better term) when I brushed my teeth. Though I was surprised, I assumed the batteries needed replacing, so I did that this morning. The three times that I've tried to use the toothbrush today, I get the "buzz" for about 4 seconds, and then it dies completely.I cannot seem to get the device to work properly at all, though I've followed the instruction manual meticulously. I want the toothbrush to work; I've heard and read game changing reviews about it, but I just can't be satisfied paying $50 for something that I only use about 25-30 times!

Does NOT WORK!!! This product does not clean your teeth better than a regular electric toothbrush. I was hoping that the middle bristles would help negate the silicone bristles but after a week, I saw more plaque develop on my teeth than before. At first, I thought it was making my tooth feel squeaky clean but once I saw the plaque build up, I was getting horrified and switched back to my electric toothbrush. Foreo needs to just stick to their skin cleaner products.I looked at sephora products for Foreo toothbrush lines and it all had 3 star reviews even on their website. I tried the ISSA Play since it was cheaper just to see if I wanted to commit.. this is really just a waste of money.

A.) The packaging is not difficult to open if you first peel off the glitter/foil sticker on the top of the package (mine read "Smile in Style"). Flip up a corner of this sticker with your fingernail and tug it off. Then, gently tug the package open. The bottom paper sticker will easily tear in half ... and then it's open.B.) There is no need to hold in the button as you brush. Instead, you just push in firmly. You may even feel a slight clicking sensation. This activates the brush (it will stay on now until you turn it off). To turn off the brush, press that same area with firm pressure.C.) When the brush is properly activated (operating on its own without the user holding in the button), it cleans fairly nicely. Now, unlike other electric toothbrushes, you still have to "brush" with this Issa Play. So while with a brush like Sonicare, the user simply holds it to her/his teeth and lets the brush do the work, this is a dual effort. The user brushes in small circles while the brush emits sonic vibrations.I'm going to be frank, I like this brush. Everyone in my home has a Sonicare Diamond brush (I included them in my picture as proof), so I do know a great brush. However, while Sonicare provides travel cases for their brushes, the whole deal is just too large and not always drip-proof. And, I travel a lot for work. So, this brush is a million times better than a manual brush. I just put it in a small Ziplock baggie and it takes up very little room. (And it tries super quick, so no worries about mold when in the baggie). And, I kinda dig those silicon bristles and how it makes toothpaste SUPER foamy!For me, this is beyond perfect for travel and I am so glad to have found this. This is absolutely invaluable for those who travel a lot (and try to keep their luggage to a simple carry-on). Even if you love Sonicare (and I do!), you will still love this for travel. Give it a try!
