Eclipse Pro-Floss Flosser - Green

Very usefull

A strange little "as seen on TV" kind of product I took a chance on. It is not especially easy to use, if "easy" is a throwaway flossing sword. It does do what it's supposed to do, and I've found that basically all of the complaints about it, while accurate, are not really a huge deal.It's a bit of a procedure to thread, sure, but after you've done it once, it's not a big deal to do the last couple steps over and over as you fill the uptake spindle and have to re-thread that. The floss *is* heavy-gauge, and that's my chief complaint. I thought I had gappy teeth, but this showed me the folly of my ways. The floss really is thick, and I'm looking forward to running out of the starter roll and can hopefully load thinner floss in, instead. The head is a bit larger than any flossing sword I've ever used, and it can be a bit much on the gums. I can picture someone with a smaller mouth not being especially pleased with the fitment.On the upside, the thing hasn't broken in many months of (yes) daily use. It does what it's supposed to do -- which for me is eliminate most of the plastic waste of dental swords and give me something that is easy enough to use, that i *do* use it.I'm calling this a 4-star: I don't love it, but I do like it, and it continues to serve its purpose with no damage to itself or me.

This was the flosser I was looking for. It’s bulky, but works great and is very sturdy.
