Refillable Clean Dental Flosser Handle - Stainless Steel Reusable Dental Floss Pick Version 2.0

This stainless steel flosser, on the right, is roughly a copy of the flosser type I have been using for years, pictured on left, with two differences; it is a tad smaller which is not a big deal, and it is unbreakable, which IS a big deal. The plastic one, brand name Flossaid, is an excellent tool and is the only reason I floss daily, because I refuse to put my several fingers in my mouth to floss, daily, using the floss and fingers method. Way too unhygenic. And the little plastic disposable ones are too small, I still need to put fingers in mouth to reach back teeth, too flimsy, and too wasteful. Disposable means wasteful. The big drawback to the Flossaid and similar products is they always break after a few months of use. One tine always breaks off near the handle. So they need to be replaced frequently. This cost adds up $$$.I just did a first use of the metal one and it feels like using the plastic Flossaid, just a tad smaller and heavier. The major point here, to me, is that the steel one will never break! I am very happy to have found this product.Tip: Wrap 10 or 20 yards of floss tightly around the handle. When you need to reload the fork to floss again just unwrap a few inches and put it across the tines. Each reload will be much faster than and less fumbling than reaching for the floss box. Waxed floss stays in place on the handle much better than unwaxed floss.Dentist joke: "Only floss the ones you want to keep!"

Unbreakable stainless steel, what's not to love - right?Well, it's so rigid that you can't get sustained tension on the floss...Even worse, the manufacturing process left sharp edges that cut the floss as you start moving it about in your mouth !??!(talk about undermining its own purpose)Going back to breakable plastic !!!

After a lot of trial and error, I'm happy with this flosser. I have very narrow gaps between my teeth so I struggled to find a floss that didn't stretch or fray too much. I finally found Oral B Glide floss to work quite well.I also was hoping for it to be small enough to use with my kids, but it's giant! I find it rather large for my own adult mouth. Smaller sizes would be a good development.

I’m gonna keep this because I’m trying to reduce plastic waste… However, if I had a horse, I would use it to floss its teeth. It’s really big and you have to be careful not to hit your teeth with it. I’m keeping it in my car so I can floss one-handedwhen I’m stuck in traffic.

Works perfectly as intended. Don't know why everyone else seems to be having such trouble. Ignore the floss samples it comes with, though.

Doesn't maintain tension very well. Tight teeth gapping will exacerbate the problem. I believe I wasted my money.

The material and construction of the flosser is very good quality. It is easy to use and does a great job cleaning my teeth. So glad I gave it a try!

It's a very good idea, but it needs improvements. The screw should be re-engineered to be used as a ratchet to tighten the dental floss and prevent the screw from coming out. The forks should be a little flatter.
