Review on πŸͺ₯ Colgate Premier Extra Clean Toothbrushes (Pack of 12) by Glen Braudrick

Revainrating 4 out of 5

There is nothing wrong with them - just like at home

I don't know what all the negatives are, except for the unusual "foreign" packaging. Plastic is still plastic, but the unknown scares you, doesn't it? I too was surprised at how they came about and at first a bit suspicious of their quality as they weren't what I was used to from them. They were folded 3 times and shipped in bubble wrap. I think the fact that they all came together confused me. I based my purchase decision solely on the price and the Colgate brand name. We needed basic disposable guest toothbrushes that will probably only be used for a maximum of 3-4 days before being thrown away. When I came here and looked at the bad reviews, I compared them to the Colgate toothbrushes at our house. I have come to the conclusion that there is NOTHING wrong with them other than the packaging is in Vietnamese. What if the handles are pointy? People understand that toothbrushes come in different styles, right? Some are and some are conical and flat. I tested 4 Colgate toothbrushes that we currently use. 3 of them are identical to this one. Everything is the same except for the exact shade of green/pink/blue and the coloring of the bristles and handles. You can see in my photos. I can't remember where I got it from, but definitely from a major US drug store or supermarket. So no, they are not fakes. The seller simply takes advantage of the price difference in the Asian market and resells them in the US market for a (probably small) profit. The printed retail price of 7,000 VND is about US$0.30. The fact that all 12 come in an undivided package can make people nervous. When you pull them out of the template, they look just like the more expensive toothbrushes that are sold individually. And guess what? That familiar sense of security, English? It is made in China. I paid $2.29 for ONE toothbrush. They cost 1/5 of it.

Pros
  • Stable processing
Cons
