Customer Reviews of Waterpik Ultra Cordless Dental Water Jet
Customer Review: Disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
Disappointed in this travel pik as I have the full size Waterpik that is over 20 years old and perfect in what it does. This one works well BUT and it is a big BUT-- the reservoir is so small that it empties before you are ready to stop using it. It should be at least 2 1/2 times the size.Customer Review: Poorly designed for me

Waterpik Ultra Cordless Dental Water Jet
I have to agree with Burkhard. The tip moves so easily its impossible to keep the deep cleaning "Pik Pocket" tip pressed against the gumline to get the deep cleaning it was designed to give. Also, the on/off button should be turn off automatically when released. Trying to control the tip position, hold your head over and down in the sink, tilt the body so the fluid is around the intake tube and slide the on/off button to the position desired is fairly challenging. Plus the on button moves so easily I keep accidentally touching it when removing the tip from my mouth or getting ready to use it and spraying mouthwash in my face, on my shirt or across the room! :-) I finally wrapped a rubber band between the tip holder and the body so it wouldn't move without some effort and another over the on/off button and around the body pulling it down toward the off position so it shuts off when I stop pushing on it. All that and the small resevoir make it just too awkward for my taste. I'll stick with the wand type thank you. They have they're problems too but for me a lot less.
Customer Review: Waterpic Ultra
Summary: 3 Stars
The Waterpic does fine and lasts about 10 days using it twice a day. It is more noisy than I expected. Filling the tank is a little awkward because you have to lay the pic flat in the sink. It doesn't hold quite enough water for me and I have to refill when I am 3/4 done.
Overall it is a good thing though.
Customer Review: Much improved over WP-360
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a bigger unit than the WP-360 and thus holds more water in the container. The real difference is in the battery. I can easily go over a week, using it twice a day, before charging whereas the WP-360 would never last a week. I have owned 4 WP-360s and each of them stopped holding a charge after abour 3-4 months. Let's hope they solved the problem with the WP-450. I have a feeling they did. Customer Review: Waterpik Ultra Cordless Dental Water Jet
Summary: 2 Stars
The Waterpic Ultra is well made and the size makes it handy for use while travelling. However, the tip rotator is so loose so that it is practically impossible to keep it in the position intended. As soon as the tip touches the mouth the tip moves to a different position from the one chosen.
