Anything that can be easily knocked off and has a high profit margin likely will be knocked off on Amazon.com. E.g., toothpaste, likely fine. Sonicare toothbrush handles also fine. But these plastic brush heads that likely cost $0.50 each to make--high knockoff potential.
Best way to buy these: CVS with their occasional 30% off or 50% off coupons. I'm all stocked up now at half off with high assurance that I didn't just get ripped off paying $7/ea for a fake brush head.
If you're not going to get the quality brand name version, just get the drugstore brand product to begin with.
The Philips handle is nothing remarkable. The markup on it is because of the brushes and brush design that's proven to be effective. The handle is basically an ergonomic dildo with a connector for a brush. It just vibrates on a timer.
An air purifier is just a fan with perhaps a gas sensor that can speed it up or slow it down. The efficacy of the filtering comes down to the filters not the fan.
I'm all for generics for certain things, but these ain't it.
And I don't trust amazon's supply chain here. Too high of a risk for knockoffs. I'll wait for a sale from someone who doesn't comingle their inventory.

Surely has nothing to due with cranking our plastic bristle toothbrushes up to 45,000 strokes per minute 🧐

Enamel erosion can happen within a few weeks and receding gums are not fun. You only get one set of real teeth, take care of them.

This also means that you may get a genuine product even when a 3rd party seller was trying to sell you a fake one (since Amazon comingles inventories at its warehouse). Now, if 90% of all of these brush heads at Amazon (across all sellers) are authentic/from Philips, then the risk you get a fake is only 10%, but I don't know what the % is for this.
This is the same reason I never buy any vitamins or supplements from Amazon.com unless the supplement manufacturer is the ONLY seller on Amazon.com (no chance of fakes then).
Also tried a variety of knockoff brush heads from Amazon and they were all so much worse. They were either too hard or too soft, the ends felt rough/sharp and would sometimes cause gum inflammation, and they truly never lasted as long as the authentic heads. Always started fraying much earlier. It's definitely worth buying the legit heads for a few bucks more.
