Philips Sonicare UV Sanitizer Reviews
Customer Rating:Summary: Philips Sonicare UV Sanitizer
Comment: Philips Sonicare UV Sanitizer I found the product easy to use, the packaging while it afforded sanitary delivery of the product was moderately easy to open. I use this product daily and feel confident that my toothbrush is free of the bacteria a bathroom use creates. I am happy with my purchase. The instructions were clear and I appreciate the fact that he package contained different base holders for various models of toothbrushes. While I have a Sonicare e 7000 and do not need a holder for the sanitizer, I know that I am not limited to sanitizing only that one model of toothbrush, he E 7000.

Summary: ordering a new bulb
Comment: First let me start off by saying that the product itself is fine. I don't know if anyone else tried to order a new bulb from Philips, but let me tell you that it's not the simplest task. I looked on their website to order one, but it was nowhere to be found. I then sent an email to their customer support people and promptly got a reply with a phone number to call to order. After calling that number, I was put on hold for a while then told that I need to call the manufacturer directly to order a bulb. I called the new number and spoke to someone who also put me on hold. She said I selected the wrong option in the menu and needed to call back and select "other."
So after all this, I finally spoke to the right person who had me reinstall the bulb to make sure it wasn't working. She then got my contact info and shipped out the new bulb free of charge. Philips could have made the process less annoying, but hey, free bulb.

Summary: A necessary tool in the fight against infection
Comment: While some folks may think this product is frivolous and unnecessary, it is a real bonus in many situations. I am recovering from a stem cell transplant for acute leukemia - my immune system is suppressed and immature. Tools such as the Sonicare UV Sanitizer are a great addition to my arsenal in defense against rogue bacteria. Humans have an incredible amount of germs present both internally and on our skin. We are our own worst enemies when it comes to the spread of infection. Ensuring that something we place inside our mouths is 99% sanitary just makes good common sense. Not to mention that this was recommended by my dentist who has been in practice for over 30 years. I can't wait to begin using the product!
