I'm a big fan of Oral-B electric toothbrushes, so my old Oral-B 1000 was getting long in the tooth, so to speak. After 5 years, it was wearing out, so it was time.I wanted to move up to the 5000 series, since it has more functions, and I think works better for cleaning teeth. Amazon had a coupon for this particular version, so I picked it up.Here's what I like:1. Five different brushing functions, including a power level to thoroughly clean the teeth.2. A carrying case for travel.3. A clock/timer which links to the toothbrush. This allows you to make sure you spend a good 2 minutes brushing your teeth, to make sure all quadrants of your teeth. And it tells time, when you're late in the morning!4. A little tray/cover for extra brushes if more than one person uses the handle.5. Really well made, good fit and finish.I also got a bonus out of this. My old charger can still charge this handle, so I can use the extra charger in my travel case.I don't really see any downsides for this unit. It does what it needs to do, it works with most Oral-B brushes. The price is good, and my experience with previous Oral-B systems is that they last for a long time.  Read Less
