Ok, but all the appliances are not needed. The cheaper model is better.
Defective Hose 
2007-03-08
This item has a lousy hose... over time becomes brittle and almost impossible to fix.
Splits keep occuring - ok if you want a shower - poor hose material makes an otherwise good product very frustrating to use.
For a real adventure try to go to their web site and get a real body...
Very pleased with this product

Like many other reviews I have owned an older model for years and was very pleased with it's performance, but then the hose sprung a leak and I could not fix it, so I researched the new models for a replacement. I read a bunch of reviews for the WP-72 and was concerned that some people gave it low marks for reason it somehow gave out after a short period of time. I went ahead and ordered it and am very pleased with the unit and it's performance. One thing Water Pic does not tell you is that like on my older model, sometimes after you take the water container off and then put it back you need to prime the unit to get the water flowing again. This is simply done by placing your mouth around the end of the nossel with an air tight fit, turn on the unit, suck air from the nossel for 1-2 second and then "Wolla" it works again. Sorry to say there are are people who have never tried this and complain that the unit is somehow defective. If the motor goes out then that is a different issue, but I believe for the most part it is lack of priming the unit. Also ordering this unit from Amazon cost me $37.00 compared to a similar model from Wal Mart for $95.00 + tax.
WaterPik is a great product, but ...

I received my Waterpik, and within two weeks, the pump failed. A replacement unit was sent and received within ten days, but there was a large piece of plastic rattling inside the unit. I am hoping the third one is a charm. They are a great product and do an excellent job,- when they work. I have decreased my dental visits because of good dental hygiene, and these units contribute greatly.
Waterpik Professional WP-72 Review 2007-01-11
This product works really well. The two well system, is very convient and the self storage of all the extra components is great.
Really bad product 
2007-01-10
When used after regular brushing and flossing, this Waterpik irrigating system removes stubbornly lodged food bits and bacteria that can cause gingivitis and bad breath. Two reservoirs with ounce/millimeter guides are included: a large one for warm water and a small one for antibacterial solutions. Of the four cleaning attachments, two send pulsating jets of water into hard-to-reach crevices, especially around braces, crowns, and bridgework. A soft rubber-tipped attachment cleans under the gums, while the fourth attachment is a spoon-like device that scoops bacteria off the tongue, keeping bad breath at bay. An on/off switch is located on the base, which plugs into the wall, while a switch on the tool handle regulates pressure. The large reservoir doubles as a cover. With the cover on for storage, the compact Waterpik unit measures 7-1/4 by 4-3/4 by 4 inches. It comes with a two-year warranty against defects.

Can not live without WaterPik 2007-01-10
I floss and jet clean my teeth every day. When my old work horse WaterPik finally died after a decade of service, I got this as replacement. The older model though claiming to be family size, the jet head was difficult to swap out and thus can realistically only serve one person per unit. On this new model, the jet head swaps out easily and is definitely much more user friendly. The new unit does not feel as sturdy as the older model. But after trying another brand for a short time, I'm convinced that WaterPik is the only way to go.
It's fine but a simpler model is good enough 2007-01-07
I bought this model and another inexpensive personal model as well. The personal one is good enough and saves you money. My son wears brace and uses this everyday. It helps a lot.

after 3 days the pump would freeze up. i contacted the company & they sent me a new unit. this was very nice of them, but i was a little bit put out that the pump didnt have enough torque. however since i took it apart and ran oil on the plunger it started working and i guess i really dont have anything to complain about

Works terrific. Has plenty of power. Only con is noise. You definately know when this unit is on. Small price to pay for performance. Good bang for the buck.
