Review on Lucuma Cordless Water Flosser - 4 Modes Deformable Oral Irrigator for Travel and Home - Portable, Battery Operated, and IPX7 Waterproof by Susannah Whitebird

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent flossing performance. Large thick floss tips. Good value for money.

One of the features of this portable dental floss doesn't seem to improve its utility or ease of use. They feature a release/lock button that allows the top to rotate 180 degrees to create an angled position. This then forms a pistol-like aspect. Experimenting with the device, it turned out that it does not facilitate the process of flossing; In fact, it would make some of the maneuvers a bit awkward and the angular shape unwieldy. However, this is my personal experience and I still prefer direct guidance. And this rotation feature is an option, so users don't have to use this positioning setting. Such an opinion on a specific characteristic does not negatively affect the rating. Management is very simple. First fully charge the battery. Select the selected tip and insert it into the top of the floss. Open the connector on the reservoir to fill it with water (you can add mouthwash to the water). Insert the tip of the floss into your mouth and press the power button. To operate the device, you need to constantly press the button. Releasing the button turns off the device. The concept is that it saves energy and prevents accidental spills/splashes/water jets. My WaterPik Cordless has a switch so it doesn't stop flossing until I turn it off. I can see the wisdom of this power button feature and if you floss for a minute they suggest no problem. When I floss it takes over a minute so holding the button down can get tiring. I actually got it as a travel device and not for everyday use (I will be using my WaterPik at home). Another reason to save energy concerns battery capacity. The user manual and product description do not indicate battery capacity. They find that it takes about 3 hours to fully charge a dead battery. Working time 15 days. In addition, they record one-minute sessions twice a day. So that's actually 30 minutes of work time. 3 hour charge: 30 minutes use - Poor charge to run time ratio. And this indicates a low battery capacity. The maintenance and cleaning section of the owner's manual recommends emptying and drying the tank after each use. The reservoir is separated from the body of the floss by a slight twist. This is a tight connection, be careful and patient when applying constant force. Since the reservoir needs to be removed regularly, I don't think an inlet port is really needed. It's much easier to just remove and fill the tank and then put it back on. The cordless dental floss gets the job done perfectly. It has four speeds, which ensures a good and thorough cleaning with water. Perhaps the best feature is the cost. Even without the 10% discount coupon, the current cost is significantly lower than Cordless WaterPik. Thus, it is both economically and functionally efficient. Also, I should note that the floss tips are longer and thicker than the WaterPik tips. I don't know if there are replacement tips for this device. However, brush heads are not like toothbrushes and are usually very durable and last a long time. Based on these considerations and impressions, this cordless water scrubber is rated 3.75-4 stars.
