I laughed out loud when I read the title, but the more I read about it, it actually sounds really cool. I know that is just their advertising and marketing jargon that is doing this but it does sound awesome... definitely not 500$ worth of awesome though

The water jet ruined my teeth. I would not advise anyone to use them. Edit: here are some anecdotes https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfmaude/d... Edit 2: It might be that I didn’t maintain it properly and the water reservoir was building up bio film over period of time and actively distributing bacterial to my gums.

Ruined how? Hard to imagine a consumer handheld water jet can erode enamel.

That said this looks like a ridiculously overengineered product. Electric toothbrushes have come a long way, at a fraction of the price.

Edit: Ah a gum problem, yeah I've been warned about that (by a dentist no less). I just use interdental brushes.

Never been less satisfied than having bought a Dyson vacuum. Cheap plastic construction

I like mine ok. It's lightweight and gets the job done well enough. Are there vacuums out there nowadays that aren't cheap plastic construction?

Miele is plastic but excellent

My mum used to be a professional cleaner and she would often explain to people there's a reason professionals never use Dysons.

That's not to say it's a bad product, but I've had my Henry vacuum for decades, and in that time it's been kicked down the stairs and used vacuum up all kinds of stuff it probably wasn't design for, but it's still just as good as the day I got it.
