Simplicity at its best. Dec 03, 2007
By Mark Minassian
"The Reluctant Technologist"
I've been using an oral irrigator as part of my dental hygienics for a long time. I use to be a Waterpik fan for many years until recently. My first Waterpik lasted over ten years. Fair enough for a home appliance. So about a year ago I bought their new model; big mistake. The cheap brittle hose snapped after a few months. Being a technically savvy sort I was able to get the machine apart, and reattach the hose. Then it started breaking at the handle. That took a little more finesse and some Super Glue. After the third time it broke off at the handle, I had my fill with a poorly made product.
So I went in search of an alternative. Oral Breeze's Quikpik QuickPik - Dental Oral Irrigator was the answer for me. It attaches directly to your faucet where you can adjust the water pressure and temperature with you faucet. It does require you to replace your aerator, but that is not a difficult task. Once you've done that, you can simply attach and detach the unit at will.
Oh, did I mention it's made like gang busters and has a life time warranty. And talk about customer service: I had a small problem with one of the tips (it comes with two), so I called Tom at the customer service number. No problem, he sent out two new tips at no extra cost and included a little gift of Therapics to boot. Wow!
I love this thing, no electricity , no ugly thing-a-ma-tub in the bathroom taking up space. I'm a convert, but I guess you figured that out by now.
Addendum: It is now February 2012. Yes, that's five years since my original purchase, and I'm still using my Oral Breeze and loving it. I recently had a problem with the connector on the hose that connects to the irrigator. True to their Lifetime Warranty, the lovely and capable customer Service agent, Kelly, was quick to send me not one, but two new hoses with new connectors. Connected one up and I'm back in business. You can't go wrong with this product or this company. Get yours today.

QuickPik decent pick Jul 22, 2007
By E. Ziman I bought this to have a quieter waterpik for late night use, so I wouldn't disturb people trying to sleep. The sellers sent me an email with helpful tips on gum care and rinsing solutions. The product was very easy to install. Very quiet, and easy to adjust for either hand! Three issues with it - first is the hose, which is a tiny bit stiff and can be awkward to turn if you don't hold it just right. It can be a bit fiddly to adjust pressure and water temperature, as these are controlled by your faucet handles. (if you live in a house like mine, the water slowly gets too hot, then quickly gets too cold, etc) Last is the spray. Possibly I'm still learning how to use it properly, but I end up with a very fine misty spray all over the place.
In all I'm pleased with it as a backup waterpik. Note if you want to travel with it, you'll have to do some disassembly to any faucet you plan to attach it to.

Quick Breeze - Dental Irrigator Nov 19, 2008
By Louise
"Puppy Mom"
I've used a Water Pik for years but hated the noise and the big "box" sitting on the sink. When the plastic tubing, which can not be replaced, got a hole in it I saw the Quick Breeze on the website and decided to give it a try. First of all, it's much cheaper, takes up no space on the sink and is quiet....all pluses. I love it. It's a great alternative. It does not pulse like the Water Pic but I think it does a good job irrigating teeth. There was a small white piece that was not in the directions when we installed it. I was having trouble with the plastic tube coming off when there was too much water pressure. I finally discovered that if you push the tube on FIRST, as far as you can, then slide the small while plastic piece over it and push it as far toward the pic as possible it holds it on even under high water pressure. Now it's perfect.

QuickPik is the best Mar 17, 2007
By Shelley Kuhen I have been so pleased with the performance of this item. It is easy
to use - no tanks to fill, no batteries to charge. It is completely
portable - just screw the adaptor onto any bathroom faucet and you are
good to go. Adjusting the pressure can be a little tricky but really
no big deal once you get the hang of it. I am going to recommend this
to friends and family.
