If you're still cleaning your teeth with a manual toothbrush, you're not doing a very good job. Ask your dentist. The much better alternative are fast-vibrating "sonic" electric toothbrushes, but they're all so darn expensive. Right? Wrong.
Tech expert Dave Taylor of https://www.AskDaveTaylor.com/ reviews the surprisingly affordable GZH Electric Toothbrush and finds it a solid option. And the price? You'll be astonished...

a sonic toothbrush for 15 bucks let's
0:02
have a look Dave Taylor here and I'm
0:12
looking at this this is the gzh electric
0:16
toothbrush and it's really nice and has
0:19
a crazy price point so let's go ahead
0:22
and put one of the heads on and I will
0:24
show you by pushing a button that it is
0:27
an electric toothbrush it's actually
0:29
operating at 31,000 strokes a minute and
0:32
it has five brush modes on the front it
0:35
actually shows you which brush mode
0:37
you're in which might it might not be
0:39
helpful we'll come back to that but it
0:41
has clean and then the next option is
0:44
oops sorry it has clean the next option
0:49
is refresh and then there's whiten while
0:53
we keep turning it off and then there's
0:56
gum care and then there's the sensitive
0:59
mode because quite frankly sometimes
1:01
when you're using these electric
1:02
toothbrushes it actually gets all tickly
1:04
and it can make your teeth feel weird so
1:06
that's not a great thing now I thought
1:09
it'd be fun to actually put this in
1:10
water so we'll see this sort of kind of
1:14
shows you a little bit about what's
1:15
going on maybe we shouldn't be in
1:17
sensitive mode so you can't really tell
1:21
doesn't really work that well but the
1:23
different modes just the they're tending
1:27
to operate slightly differently but in
1:29
all cases you know as there we go so
1:31
I'll just put it right at the top in all
1:35
cases that's true that every 30 seconds
1:39
it turns off for just a fraction of a
1:41
second and after two minutes of brushing
1:43
it turns off completely now I can
1:46
simulate that but honestly two minutes
1:48
of having this thing vibrate not super
1:50
exciting now it does come with two heads
1:54
so this one is the Comfort head no I'm
1:57
sorry this one is the professional head
1:59
and this one is the Comfort head and in
2:02
both situations they have indicator
2:04
bristles so you can see there's some
2:05
color in there when the colour goes away
2:08
it's time to replace your brush heads
2:10
but here's what's really cool is
2:12
everything that they're doing here is to
2:14
try to make this maximally affordable so
2:17
brush heads are somewhere between a buck
2:19
and three bucks per unit and they're
2:22
gonna have a subscription service where
2:23
for a dollar a month you subscribe and
2:27
every three months they'll send you a
2:28
new head and that's about how frequently
2:30
you should be changing the heads on your
2:32
electric toothbrush or throwing away and
2:34
starting over with a new toothbrush if
2:36
you're using the old manual style now if
2:39
you're using a manual toothbrush then
2:41
you really need to upgrade to one of
2:43
these these are so much better these are
2:45
equivalent to like ten times the
2:48
duration of cleaning with just a manual
2:50
toothbrush they're just doing more and
2:52
getting more tooth surface so pretty
2:54
much every dentist is now highly
2:56
encouraging people to use these sonic
2:59
toothbrushes that's just the name for
3:01
the style of vibration it's using so
3:04
let's see it's also ipx7 waterproof
3:07
which is important so that I could do
3:09
things like this and not say oh man I
3:12
just ruined my toothbrush now some
3:14
people actually use toothbrushes in the
3:16
shower I find that extremely bizarre but
3:20
if you're one of them then I mean what
3:23
is your thinking please leave a comment
3:25
and explain to me why you do that I just
3:27
don't get it but you can do that with
3:29
this toothbrush because it is ipx7
3:32
completely waterproof so you can clean
3:35
your teeth while you're showering I mean
3:37
do you like leave the shampoo on your
3:38
hair while you're doing it I just
3:40
honestly don't get it a charge takes
3:43
about four hours under the last
3:45
somewhere about 150 to 200 cleanings
3:48
which means that's well over a month if
3:50
you're cleaning twice a day as you
3:52
should be now the only thing about the
3:54
charging is that some of the fancier
3:56
like the philips and braun have these
3:58
like fancy charging bases and all that
4:00
this is much more mundane this is just a
4:03
hole and there's a plug and you plug it
4:06
in and then the other end you plug into
4:08
whatever USB charger you happen to have
4:10
it includes the cord but it doesn't
4:13
include a wall charger but I suppose you
4:17
could plug this into your computer and
4:18
let it just plug in overnight and then
4:21
in the morning you'll pull it out and it
4:22
would actually be charged now when
4:24
you're running it
4:25
one of the indicator lights is actually
4:28
battery status so I can see my battery
4:30
is full so you don't really want to be
4:33
halfway through your tea cleaning your
4:35
teeth and have the thing die on you
4:36
that's really a drag so really not much
4:40
else to talk about I'm actually really
4:42
like this so I've been using this for a
4:44
couple of days I've tried both heads I
4:46
can't actually feel any difference
4:47
between them
4:48
I suppose the differences in the shape
4:50
and the number of bristles but to my
4:54
teeth they feel exactly the same I wish
4:56
they had one that was a little bit
4:57
harder these are really soft a little
4:59
softer than I'm used to but it's very
5:02
very good it's a very competent
5:04
toothbrush 30 seconds outside front 30
5:07
seconds inside top outside bottom inside
5:10
bottom two minutes later you got nice
5:12
clean fresh teeth and it's good for your
5:15
breath too that's important and it's
5:17
just this is a very nice simple little
5:20
design there's really no no logos no
5:24
graphics it doesn't even tell you the
5:26
manufacturer it's just very subtle and
5:28
like I said when you turn it on it'll
5:31
show you what mode you're in on the
5:33
front but you really don't want to be
5:35
doing this unless you have it in your
5:37
mouth because otherwise your toothpaste
5:38
is going everywhere so I'm not sure
5:40
that's hugely beneficial and as I've
5:42
already demonstrated there is potential
5:45
for a little bit of confusion with the
5:46
button because a short push gets you to
5:48
the next mode and a longer push turns it
5:51
off except sometimes that doesn't seem
5:53
to be quite right so the good news is
5:56
that it's not a huge crisis and I
5:58
actually find that I like the white and
6:00
mode which I'll get to that one so you
6:03
can hear it does that for two minutes
6:07
that's a little annoying I'm not sure
6:09
what their logic was but I will tell you
6:11
after a minute of having what sounds
6:13
like a klaxon in the distance it gets a
6:16
little bit tedious so you can turn it
6:18
off you can go to a different mode you
6:19
could try multiple modes and have the
6:21
top teeth white and the bottom teeth gum
6:24
healthy whatever or you can mix it up
6:27
over multiple cleanings it's all good
6:29
now before I tell you the price and they
6:31
have some cool try price transparency
6:33
that I want to show you too but before I
6:35
tell you the price do me a favor and
6:37
click on that little
6:38
red button in the corner or otherwise
6:40
subscribe to my channel I get tons of
6:42
consumer electronics and I review them
6:44
all I'm super honest so please subscribe
6:47
and you can keep up - that would be
6:49
super appreciated ok so this is the gzh
6:55
electric toothbrush and here's their
6:57
price transparency off their website you
6:59
can see exactly how much all the
7:01
components cost and by itself it runs
7:04
under $15 but of course you have to get
7:08
it shipped to you so that ends up with a
7:10
total price of 1989 but seriously 20
7:15
bucks and that's including shipping and
7:18
it comes with everything you see here
7:19
including both of these toothbrush heads
7:22
so you can try which one you like but in
7:25
my experience they're pretty similar so
7:27
this is like a six month teeth cleaning
7:29
and your set and what I really like is
7:32
because of its long battery life you can
7:34
charge it at the first of the month and
7:36
it'll run through the end of the month
7:37
including if you're on business trips
7:39
because you don't want to take cords and
7:41
chargers and charging bases that's all
7:43
super tedious so none of that is
7:46
necessary really like it so gzh electric
7:50
toothbrush 1989 including shipping and
7:53
you can pick it up at e coin commerce
7:56
dot IO and soon Eco in commerce will be
8:00
supporting cyber currencies too but for
8:02
now you could buy it with regular old
8:04
online transactions worth it
8:07
good toothbrush is a super smart
8:09
investment in your dental and mental
8:11
health this is Dave Taylor I have been
8:15
