Oral-B Pro 1000
Wirecutter's no-frills pick — one great cleaning mode, a pressure sensor and little else
Key characteristics
Highlights
- ✓ Single daily-clean oscillating mode
- ✓ Visible pressure sensor
- ✓ Two-minute timer
- ✓ Widely compatible Oral-B brush heads
Our take
Wirecutter's long-time value pick: it cleans as well as pricier brushes with just one mode, a pressure sensor and a timer. Lab testers dock it for a loud motor, short battery and a basic feel — but for the money the cleaning is hard to beat.
