Like other electric brushes, Quip uses sonic vibrations to clean your teeth (according to CNET). Plus, like other electric brushes, Quip is designed to ensure you brush for two dentist-approved minutes. A built-in timer lets you know every 30 seconds when it’s time to move to another quadrant of your mouth, ensuring all teeth receive the same attention. Two minutes can seem like endless with a manual brush, and unless you’re using an old-fashioned app or timer, you’re probably brushing less with a manual. Quip’s vibrations gently cleanse, preventing users from brushing too vigorously.
Since Quip does not have a rechargeable battery, there is no cord to clutter your bathroom, freeing up your outlets for other items (like a hairdryer or an iron). The lack of a cord also means that the sleek and lightweight toothbrush is easy to store. Slip it into the medicine cabinet, hang it with the included Quip stand, or just admire it on your vanity. A simple button to turn on and off makes the brush very easy to use.
Quip also offers a subscription plan to make sure you keep things cool and change your toothbrush head at the recommended three-month intervals. For $ 10, you get a new brush head, AAA battery, and tube of Quip’s Mint toothpaste. Shipping is free and items will arrive every three months. If you like another brand of toothpaste, a brush / battery recharge costs just $ 5 per three months.
