Terrible! Oral Care - Toothbrushes and Accessories

My old travel toothbrush died recently so I bought this to replace it. I really didn't think there was a huge difference between travel toothbrushes, but I was wrong. i hated it It can be used as a last resort but I wouldn't recommend it and now that I'm back from my trip I'll be buying another replacement. First, the head is very small. That's about half the size of my regular toothbrushes. I have never felt clean after using it. I didn't expect the toothbrush to be as pretty as my regular one, but I did expect it to have a regular sized head. Or at least approach normal size. Second (and probably most annoying) it doesn't stay open. I like foldable travel toothbrushes. It protects it and the rest of my bag, but this one doesn't stay open. It stays closed quite well, but when you stretch out your arm to use it, it doesn't stay fully extended, so I have to hold the toothbrush knuckle to keep it extended while brushing, making cleaning difficult. Teeth correct (especially when the head itself is so small). I've never had such a problem. This thing kept flapping when I tried to brush my teeth because it wasn't designed to stay straight when open. Honestly I'll replace it immediately and throw this one away. I didn't encounter any problems until I used it on a trip so it works in a pinch, but it's so poorly constructed I won't be keeping it.

Pros
  • Excellent Design
Cons
  • Approximately
