Just had my and my wife's break after 2 years. Won't be buying another one. This is the cheapest Sonicare I know with the best tech but it has a major design failure with a screw that loosens that creates less and less vibration. Big disappointment. My E series handles all lasted 5-10 years. Off to Oral B forever.

Doesn't feel the same as the previous builds that came with a regular charger. My old one is noticeably heavier, heftier, and has stronger vibrations than the new one with same model number.

According to keepa, this is typically only this price on Black Friday. My current one just stopped charging after 5 years, so in for one.

That's the idea, things are now made to break so you keep buying. It's mind blowing. In the future, it may be one time use and it may just disintegrate afterwards.

Shame the quality has gone downhill. Bought my Sonicare 6100 in 2018 and it still works well.

If you search for "sonicare shrinkflation" you'll find a Reddit thread that compares the assemblies of the old and current 4100. The old 4100 uses a substantial electromagnetic coil to drive the brush. The current 4100 instead uses a small motor and is overall a much simpler design. I think it would be worth it to step up to a model that uses the higher end coil instead of a cheap brushed motor that will wear out over time. Unfortunately I couldn't locate a teardown video of the current 5100 to confirm that it uses a coil driver.
Interestingly, the 5300 available in Europe, model HX7101, does have a coil driver and is much easier to service than the 5300 available in the US, model HX6423. The bottom cap can be removed just by unfastening a torx screw and the lithium ion battery is not soldered to the pcb. The YouTube video "How to replace a Philips Sonicare battery (Series 5300/5500/6100/6500/7100)" shows the disassembly process.

We're not allowed to service our own devices in the US, cost of freedom I guess? Jealous!

Buying this so that my wife and I have different colors (she also has the lower model so also an upgrade).

I've had several Sonicare models over the years and they've mostly died from water intrusion. In one of those repair videos, they note that the PCB should really have a conformal coating, which wouldn't cost much, but would protect against corrosion. The seals are not great and they seem worse on the newer models. I ordered a replacement with this deal - only time will tell if the motor, battery, or corrosion break it. Unfortunately, it's a race to the bottom with everything these days. I don't think Oral-B is any better.

Actually, it's tempting to import one of those serviceable models from Europe! Must be some European regulation related to serviceability or keeping the batteries out of the landfill. Just checked, they're $150 on ebay, so you can get 5 cheap ones for the same $.

Yeah, I had an issue with one of my Sonicare toothbrushes and I'm pretty sure it's this one. The please where the brushhead attachs got loose and it doesn't vibrate properly. Can you recommend an alternate one? Maybe I should go for a cheaper one.
