On a scale from 1 to 10, we are giving the Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 6100 a solid 9.
The Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 6100 offers one of the most balanced price/performance ratios on the market, even if its price is mid-range, its features and performance are worth it.
We are giving it 9 stars because the brush head replacements are fairly pricey, mainly due to the chip included inside of them to implement the brush-sync technology that tells you when the brush head needs to be replaced.
