i have used braun brushes in the past and been impressed by there performance,i was using a battery powered braun which was good till the batterys ran down,my wife and son decided they too wished to go electric but insisted on going for a cheaper brush that was rechargeable due to the whole thing with spare heads being cheaper than a pack of two heads for this.it soon broke and i put the old foot down and bought one of these and spare heads.i was disapointed there is no light to tell you it is recieveing power,not a problem if you use the socket for other things but if its the only thing you plug in there you won`t know of a problem till its going flat.however performance wise it is head and shoulders over the normal braun brushes with just a circular brush head,from the picture you should be able to see a secondary brush behind the usual circular,in use this adds an up down motion behind the standard rotary motion .it may not sound much but it makes a big difference in cleaning power. both myself and my wife are very pleased with the quality and performance,with just the lack of a charge light my only gripe. the heads do last well and i believe are worth the rather high purchase price.

It's a pain when you don't know if something's charging, I agree

Welcome to Ciao. A good short compact review, just needs to be spaced out. Im wondering what you term as expensive if the price of this brush is anything to go by. £12 is merely average = my Sonic brush cost me £70 but then again it has also minimised hygenist visits at the dentist whereas my Braun before the Sonic brush was diferent.
