Products with simpler assembly and out-of-the-box operation score higher than more complicated models. Starting with an affordable price tag, the Voom Sonic Pro 5 Rechargeable Electronic Toothbrush offers much more than expected in terms of features and effectiveness. We found the setup of the Voom Sonic Pro 5 Rechargeable Electronic Toothbrush to be remarkably easy and intuitive. While most settings were self-explanatory, we referred to the manual to grasp each function thoroughly. The handle was the perfect width, offering comfortable handling. Although the brush head seemed initially small, it worked well, and switching between settings was simple despite occasional accidental changes. The absence of a battery life indicator or built-in sensor, make it challenging to monitor the remaining battery life. Built-in timers: This is one of the more basic features on an electric toothbrush. Most on this list have two-minute timers, many with notifications at 20- or 30-second intervals to guide you as you brush your teeth. Make brushing fun with Firefly's Clean N' Protect L.O.L.

Design, Functionality, and Features: Through every brushing session, we're paying attention to how easy the brushes are to hold and maneuver around our mouths. We note the size of the brush heads and how well they fit and get into all the crevices of our teeth and gums and whether they're comfortable or too stiff and firm. We go through all the settings, evaluating how helpful they are and whether they add or distract from the brushing experience. We use the built-in timers, note battery life indicators, and assess the "extras" it comes with (such as additional brushheads, chargers, travel cases, stands, and more). If the toothbrush connects to an app, we logged in, used it, and judged how helpful and/or clunky it was to navigate. Our teeth felt wonderfully clean, making us convert to using electric toothbrushes.
