WORKS GREAT!!! March 13, 2006 L. Abeyta (Denver, CO) 35 out of 35 found this review helpful
I hesitated before purchasing this, just because of the unsatisfied comments others have made. But let me tell you, I now understand why they all made those comments and can say with conviction, THIS PRODUCT IS GREAT! I also experienced water leakage and no water pumping through. Both are simple fixes.
To prevent the water leaking, PROPERLY and FIRMLY place the reservior onto the unit. Doing so creates a seal and it wont leak. If it does, it wasnt placed on properly. Try it again, you will eventually get the hang of it. I only had 'leaks' the first couple days.
As for it not pumping any water when it is turned on, you just need to read the instructions. It says you need to PRIME it by removing the pic, placing the hose lower than the reservior, setting it to maximum, and turning it on until water runs through. This isnt a one time thing. You need to do this each night you use it; by doing so, it will work fine. If you dont, then water wont pump through until you PRIME it again. It only adds a few seconds to your routine, but nothing to be complaining to the company about.
The unit is a little noisy, but again, not enough to complain about, unless someone is trying to sleep.
It works great. I've had mine for about 6 months now, using it nightly, and other than getting oriented to a new product, I haven't had any problems with it.
This EXTREMELY picky consumer, STRONGLY recommends you buy this product. March 10, 2006 Tom H. Foote (PLANTATION, FL United States) 20 out of 20 found this review helpful
I am certainly NOT a dentist--nor am I anything close to a qualified evaluator of ANY medical equipment. But...I do have solid experience in engineering, and the hard and social sciences, and I LOVE the "WaterPik WP-65 Personal Dental Water Jet." I mix lots of water, with several tablespoons of Listerine--nearly filling the WaterPik's reservoir (all quite UNscientifically), and repeatedly, remain abundantly impressed with the junk this baby removes--and, how fresh my mouth feel thereafter. (I've also used the WaterPik, quite unconventionally, to blast out the gunk from my razor, my ear and nose hair clipper, and other tools). This EXTREMELY picky consumer, STRONGLY recommends you buy this product. (Tho' I think we would ALL like to see more convincing independent research on its long-term effectiveness on improving gum and dental health.)
Saved me from a world of pain October 25, 2005 Vincent Averello (Bayonne, NJ USA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I purchased my WP-65 in May '05 and started using it just about every night for the last five months. My dentist was amazed that my gums were in such good shape when I went to see him. Typically I'd go to the dentist and get a half-hour lecture about gum care and then I'd have to go to weeks of subgingival cleanings which were painful & expensive. Not anymore... my WaterPik has saved me the pain, the bills & the lectures.
Nothing Compares to the WaterPik Products February 7, 2007 Ronald Jones (Cape May CH, NJ USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I had a Waterpik many years ago and it was a very good product. After many years of service it died. When I went shopping to replace it I decided to save a few bucks and buy a cheaper competitor. BIG MISTAKE ! The competitor did not hold enough water to adequately flush out the deposits without having to refill it nor did it have the power the Waterpik's have. It got returned and I got the WP-65 and am happy again. You would be surprised by the amount of debris that is hiding at your gum line that brushing (even power brushing) can't remove. You also gain the benefit of having your gums massaged by the pulsating action. Your dental hygene is not complete until you have finished up with the WaterPik...
This is the 7th Water pik for me!! November 22, 2006 Ronald Hinton 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
PRO: I have been recently told by a new dentist that I have excellent teeth, no gum disease, tight gums and no cavities. I immediately burst out in praise of water pik. It's not your teeth that rot, it's the food stuck in your gums that rots.
CON: The pressure control slider on the handle goes from mild to very, very strong with no real middle ground. It may feel like a fire hose in your mouth, even a little painful, but listen to me folks:
Massage your gums every time with the water blast inside and outside of your gums. The enhanced stimulation will tighten your gums, reduce impaction of food particles between uses and it feels great. A little blood at first is only clots being released.... That's a good thing. Get the inside of your teeth and linger with the blast. Let it shoot between each tooth vigorusly. Then shoot through the other side of your teeth. Your dentist will be impressed and your teeth will last a lifetime. Use it 2-3x daily. Get addicted like me. I am 50 years old, my dentist said I have the teeth of a 30 year old. I give major credit to Water pik. Expect it to last a year or two before the motor starts failing, but hey, 40 bucks every two years is very cheap dental insurance. Try half a teaspoon of bleach in the tub of water with every 5th use. It's the secret sauce that dentist put in their water piks. Get the food out, get your gums in line. Go with Water Pik.
