Philips Sonic Care Gives Good Service!

Last week, our rechargeable toothbrush for kids by Philips began vibrating very loudly and the shaft, which connects to the toothbrush heads, was coming loose.

Now I know this is not earth-shattering news, but, I figure when you encounter good service that you should acknowledge it in any way you can.  It is why I have an account with TripAdvisor, Yelp and I always send a quick e-mail when I receive particularly good or bad service.

The toothbrush cost us close to $100 and has been worth every penny.  Having had to revert to the manual toothbrushes, I can honestly say that the sonic care brushes help me to make sure that the kids teeth are as clean as they can be.  Anyways, I spoke to an client service rep. via a chat client and within 5 minutes of giving the rep. the serial number and my personal information, I was told they would send a replacement handle and it would reach us within 5-7 days!!  Now that's service!  So thank you Philips for a great product and great follow up service.

This is the second such article I have posted recently:  My last bout of adulation was for SimpleHuman.  It seems that when you go with a product which is well made to begin with, even though price may initially seem exorbitant, it actually pays off in the long run.

Hurray for consumerism!
