The Sonicare Cordless Power Flosser 3000 spoken about in this review was provided by Philips PR department. Electric Teeth did not purchase this model. No financial reward was provided to conclude the review the way that we did and Philips had no editorial control over the content.
⚠ DIFFERENT POWER ADAPTERS ⚠ It's come to our attention that Philips have introduced versions of the Cordless Power Flosser 3000 that use a 'small plug cable' rather than USB Type-C connector as shown in this video. In all instances the power cable has a USB Type-A connector at the other end. Product listings don't necessarily make it very clear as to which you are getting.
Part codes for the variants with what Philips call 'Fast universal charging with USB-A to Small Plug cable' include: HX3826/31, HX3826/33, HX3826/23, HX3826/21 & HX3826/24.
The exact reasons for this change are not known.
I certainly do not want any special cables. If it doesn't have USB-C then I DO NOT want it.
Thanks for all these reviews! The USB-C charging is a big plus over a proprietary port or the waterpik advanced induction system just for the ease and cost of getting a replacement as we have those cables in every drawer in the house anymore. I will be buying one of these 2 today!
Thank you for this review. This review and your other content helped me make a choice. I wanted to go with the equivalent Waterpik, but the deciding factor for me was the battery technology (NiMH vs. Lithium Ion). I'm not sure if it will end up mattering. The grip hasn't been an issue, and I don't know if I'll ever need to adjust the angle of the head. Water pressure seems good. Hopefully it holds up over time.
I am pleased you found this video and other content helpful Paul. 😀
The discontinued Phillips Sonicare Air Flosser was the most efficient, non-messy flosser conceived. It required only a few teaspoons of liquid to floss the entire mouth. Instead of flowing continuously, the user presses a trigger to release an air accompanied burst. Extremely compact and charges magnetically. I would pay double to have another.
I kind of agree with you Ty. I have the Airfloss still and love it.
@@ElectricTeeth agree, shame im here cos it just broke for the second time !!! :( love the old version
@Ty Cox try the Oclean W1
I didn’t like the air floss. The continuous water stream cleans teeth much better
The air flosser is my fav aswell. Has anyone found a similar one? I lime that the water didn't continously spray.
Thanks for uploading video of Philip water flosser , please upload more videos of best brands water flosser.
With regards to the nozzle tips, how often do you actually need to replace these? It's not like a tooth brush which wears down so does it even need replacing?
The recommendation is every 6 months. Many people do use them for a lot longer. They just tend to soak them to clean them thoroughly every so often.
Did you notice the nozzles being a little loose with your model? I have one myself I feel as though there is a little play with the nozzle moving loosely even when locked all the way down.
I don't recall this being the case. I don't have it right to hand at the moment. There may well be a very little play in the nozzle but certainly not something that stood out to me.
Hows the pressure compared to the countertop models? I dont have any sockets near sinks but if a countertop waterpik model is better i would just use a plastic basin to catch the mess.
It is comparable.
As a very approximate comparison the pressure on the cordless vs the countertop is as follows:
Low = Level 2
Medium = Level 5
High = Level 8
Is it enough for the mouth cleaning alone or should we also use toothbrush. If yes which order I need follow? First this or first brush and then this? Thanks for answers :)
You need to brush the teeth too. This is not sufficient on its own.
We recommend flossing first followed by brushing. But as long as you do both it doesn't make a significant amount of difference.
My gum bled the first time I used this water flosser, even on the lowest setting. I didn't experience gum bleeding when using my old Panasonic flosser, or using regular floss. Hopefully, it will get better.
I read an Amazon review saying the first shot is very strong. Does anyone concur?
The bleeding should stop within a few days. If it doesn't consult your dentist if you can.
@@ElectricTeeth Thanks. It does get better now. Just using the lowest water pressure setting though.
@@stonks2385 how are your guns holding up?
@@kottyking It’s been much improved. No bleeding from using the electric flosser. I also notice that using the quad stream nozzle is actually less “intensive” compared to the regular ones.
Good video, tiny suggestion, lower the camera a few cm as I constantly felt like you were looking up at me and it was a little distracting. But then I am a prone to noticing daft things like that!
Noted!
Can you use the Phillips Quadstream nozzle on a Waterpik?
No, you can't.
This is all very interesting! It would be so much more valuable if I could actually get mine to turn on. The power comes on ….it is charged….has actually been charging for more than 8 hours. But nothing happens when I push the buttons. Am I missing something?!
No. It should just switch on. It seems like you may have a faulty power button. Best to contact Sonicare or the retailer you purchased it from.
Do you need to clean the inside of the straw part? If so, how do you clean it?
You can rinse under the tap or clean with a vinegar solution. More info here - www.electricteeth.com/clean-water-flosser/
This link does not open@@ElectricTeeth
is water supposed to drip from the release button area? It is a bit annoying and I wonder if it is faulty
No it shouldn't as afar as I am aware.
I’ve just gotte mine and I’ve noticed some waterdrops in the charging port even when the rubber had never even been detached from the charging port. My friends’ flosser broke because of this, am I also at risk for it to break down when I’d like to charge it?
Hopefully not, but probably worth keeping an eye on and if you see more water there or it is a regular thing, then speak to Philips as the water shouldn't get inside.
I ordered one of these this week and discovered that the new model number HX 3826, has switched back to a proprietary charging cable away from USB-C. Very unfortunate!
Interesting. Are you in Malasyia? A quick web search is returning that model and showing a different connector as you suggest.
Amazon UK currently has 3 different models (31/33) of this product at different price points. Are there any differences between these as they seem to be the same apart from colour?
Colour should be the only difference. There is only 1 version of the Cordless 3000 we know of, aside from colour.
Cheaper ones are USBC charging cable. Cheaper ones are USBA.
I had to delete my previous comment. I believed that the pacer just does not work on my device. After re-exploring the user manual I found out that the pacer can be turned on and off on this device! For anyone who expect the same situation you have to long press the intensity button for 3 seconds while the device turned off. It will starts to blink fast what signs for you turned on / off the pacer function.
To activate or deactivate the pacer
With the Cordless Power Flosser off, press and hold the
intensity selection button for 3 seconds.
- When deactivated, the battery indicator light will
flash amber once
- When activated, the battery indicator light will flash
green twice
I have arthritis in my hands and have no problems with the grip.
How do I know when my battery is full because the green light is always blinking when I'm charging it?
The LED should turn a solid green colour. A full charge takes up to 8 hours.
Question: I have fingered dexterity trouble. Do you need to continually hold the power button in order to use the flosser?
No, you do not.
@@ElectricTeeth Thank you.👍🏻
Apart from not having the best grip, is this one better than the Waterpik Cordless Advanced? Trying to decide which one to get..
I rate the Cordless Advanced higher. But, there is very little in it to be honest. Both are good. Comparison video - ruclips.net/video/TFvELjQlka4/видео.html
Just bought it and have issues. 1) When you turn it on and start using it is water suppose to come out of the tiny hole under the eject button in the back? 2) is the quad stream tip only suppose to click in place instead of fully go in because it leaves a gap and water leaks out and not enough water comes through the tip?
Hi Patrick.
No, water should only come out through the flosser tip/nozzle. Certainly not via the eject button.
The QuadStram tip should click into place just like the other nozzles with water coming through the tip of the nozzle only.
It sounds like this is faulty and in need of replacement.
Would you find the Waterpik advance or Philips 3000 is quieter?
It depends on the pressure setting/mode, but in my testing the Waterpik Cordless Advanced gave a decibel reading of up to 70dB compared to the 77 of the Sonicare Power Flosser 3000.
Thank you!!!
Hi Doctor. Do you maby know how to turn the 15sec pacer off on this model?
To activate or deactivate the pacer:
With the Cordless Power Flosser off, press and hold the intensity selection button for 3 seconds.
- When deactivated, the battery indicator light will flash amber once
- When activated, the battery indicator light will flash green twice
@@ElectricTeeth Thank you.
I have had no problems with the grip or nozzle
I have this flosser for 1 month then the nozzle of my flosser broke at the base and left debris inside the body of the flosser. The debris cant be removed So I couldnt change the nozzle.
Apparently, Philips cant do anything about it and says it isnt under their warranty.
I am sorry to read this Richard. How did the nozzle break. Did you drop it or something?
@@ElectricTeeth no it was not dropped. No memorable amount of force was used on it.
Oh no. So the debris is the bottom of the nozzle or some plastic that splintered off that has gotten into the mechanism?
I got one in June this year. Now 1st of November it's not charging anymore, what could be the issue?
I am not sure. Is the battery completely flat? Any lights on the handle?
@@ElectricTeethI had this problem for 2 days. Last night I checked the cable connection while was in charge and, by suprise it was working. I said it is nothing wrong with it and left it charging overnight. Today I noticed no lights at all. Do I need a battery replacement or it is more serious issue?
Stefan. It sounds like the battery is at fault and needs replacing. There may well be another cause/solution but I do not have enough information about the product. Best to get in contact with Philips and get it repaired/replaced under warranty.
How often does the nozzle need to be changed?
The recommendation is every 6 months.
@@ElectricTeeth thank you!
I'm looking for a disassembly guide, mine stopped working
Sorry to hear this. Are you out of the warranty period?
@@ElectricTeeth yes, I wanted to try to open the device to understand the fault but it seems to be a single piece.
Putting up agens waterpik wot would recomend
What are your reasons for this James?
@@ElectricTeeth I'm trying to work out what better cos I'm looking for a replacement one in the past I've had waterpik cordless but it packed up I've replacement the tank 2 and the heads a few times
My recommendation is still Waterpik. I have a video coming to the channel in a couple of weeks to confirm this. Here is my written article explaining why: www.electricteeth.com/waterpik-cordless-advanced-vs-philips-sonicare-cordless-power-flosser-3000/
how many cm is the nozzle length? thank you
Height with nozzle in the flosser is approx 30.8cm / 12.13 inches.
I don't have a nozzle to hand right now to check, but if the nozzle is out of the flosser, you are probably looking at about 10cm
thank you legend, im trying to find something to reach my tonsils gotta get those things out somehow @@ElectricTeeth
Tried it. Nog good. Will only remove small pieces of food but not plaque. Not enough power. Traditional flossing is the best unfortunately.
There seems to be so little jet, how in the world could it clean adequately?
which water flosser is the strongest ?
If you mean power, then the Burst Water Flosser. The Ordo Hydro Sonic is also powerful.
However, the claimed power and what you feel is influenced by a number of factors so some flossers can feel more or less powerful than you might expect.
What’s the PSI?
Philips don't publish this information. From my testing it feels similar to most other flossers, so you are looking at a pressure range likely from around 30-70PSI.
I got this thing couple months ago and it just stop working probably after 6 months of using. 😅 not recommended.
Sorry to read this. Do you know what went wrong?
If you speak to Philips they should replace it under the warranty.
WaterPick cordless advanced has yet to be defeated.
According to who? Have you tried both?
@@flytheskymyway
Yes, duh.
@@gravityfallscanada what makes it better? on paper this one seems better because of the bigger water tank
This guy can see minerals in the water
Why do you need to replace Those plastic heads ?! Clean them - yes, but replace ?! Each half year ??! What for- for a margin and profit of manufacturers?!
if you don't stress on the last word of each sentence, it would sound more pleasant
Picture instructions very confusing. Can’t make sense of timing system which was very easy on old sonicare. Can only cope with back of bottom teeth when tank is full as unless hold it vertical it can’t pump water. Pressure will not dislodge debris but will wash bathroom face and clothes, Incredibly messy and can’t do whole mouth on one fill despite big tank which makes whole thing too big for travelling light. What a waste of money.
Great video waterpik is rubbish 🗑 🙄 had one just broke 💔 down. Have a mysmile water flosser much better
🤓
that shit broke after 8 months and they wont reply, replace or repair.
DONT FALL FOR THAT SCAM PRODUCT
No Wire is a LIE... cordless means never to have to PLUG IN charge cradle needed!!!!
