The Oral-B iO2 Electric Toothbrush has been discounted to £39.99 on Amazon, a 60% saving off its usual £100 price. The deal applies to the forest green model, which comes with one brush head and a travel case. A black variant is also available at a reduced price of £45.
Key Features
Oral-B claims the iO2 delivers '100% cleaner teeth' compared to a manual toothbrush. It offers three intensity levels: extra-gentle, gentle, and daily clean. A one-touch button and a two-minute timer that buzzes every 30 seconds help users brush evenly. The brush operates quietly, has a long-lasting battery, and includes an automatic gum pressure sensor that slows down when pressing too hard.
Shopper Reviews
The toothbrush holds a 4.4-star rating from over 4,500 Amazon reviews. One five-star reviewer wrote: “I’ve used a few electric toothbrushes over the years and this is easily the best one I’ve owned. The first thing I noticed was how much quieter it is than my previous toothbrush, which makes it much nicer to use, especially first thing in the morning... My teeth feel smooth and fresh, almost like I’ve just had a hygienist clean.”
Another shopper commented: “I was not sure but was advised by dentist. It’s great, gets rid of plaque and gives your mouth a great clean feeling. Great look and easy to use and charge - my opinion worth every penny!” A further user noted: “It's a good rechargeable toothbrush. Good value and works well, not too noisy.”
Criticisms
Some buyers pointed out that replacement brush heads are expensive. One reviewer said: “Very good electric toothbrush at a reasonable price, however the cost of the toothbrush heads are way too expensive!” Another added: “Great upgrade from a sonic toothbrush. Battery life on this model is better than other more expensive ones but does charge slower... While the heads can be expensive, I often look for deals so not any sort of problem.”
Alternatives
For a higher-end option, the Philips Sonicare Series 9000 Electric Toothbrush in Blue costs £124.99 from Argos. A more budget-friendly choice is the OCLEAN Ease Electric Toothbrush in Blue at £19.99 from Currys, which boasts a 120-day battery life and two cleaning modes.
