Are Sonicare Generic Toothbrush Heads comparable to Philips toothbrush heads?

Anyone who has a Sonicare knows that toothbrush heads aren’t cheap. I used to pay $9/brush before I found that you can get them for about $6-8 on Amazon.

I have a Sonicare ProResults toothbrush, and I recently test drove the generic toothbrush heads. Considering they cost only $2 each, that’s more than 3 times cheaper than the ones made by Philips!

The ones I tried are made by Paz Generix:

I was tempted to get them because of how cheap they are, but I wasn’t very happy with the results. They aren’t made well. The bristles fall out after just a few times brushing, and the brush head itself doesn’t fit well. This essentially means that the vibrational brushing power is far weaker than the non-generic tooth sonicare tooth brush head. Paz tried to copy the toothbrush head with their generic one, but they did a very poor job, and I’m very disappointed. I don’t recommend it at all. I guess I’m going to be sticking with the official Philips Sonicare toothbrush heads until some company makes a perfect replica.

How to get sonicare toothbrush heads for cheap

Costco occasionally has discounts for sonicare toothbrush heads with 6 brush heads for $30. Also, I once bought a 7 pack off Amazon for $40. The price is currently $60, but it fluctuates often. You can use Alertification to get an email or text as soon as the price drops!
