Went mouldy 😱
I wish I could write good things about these brushes; the first one out of the box has served me well for the past 6 weeks, even to the extent that my dentist commented on how my gum health had improved. However I went to get a replacement out of the box this morning and it was covered in fluffy greenish mould. I checked the others in the box and it's the same story. I've kept them in the original box in the cupboard under my bathroom sink. Nothing else in that cupboard has a trace of mould; not other toothbrushes, not cardboard packaging, not cotton balls, not a fabric cosmetic bag. I can only conclude that the problem is the brushes. I'm really disappointed because I made the switch to bamboo in order to reduce my reliance on plastics and reduce waste, and now 5 out of the 6 brushes are going straight in the bin...

Full of splinters
I was shocked when I open the boxes for these brushes. The reviews said they were great. If you look at the pictures you will see that they were so full of splinters that there’s no way they could be used. I am very disappointed in what passes for quality control nowadays.

Soft bristles, had only 1 slight problem
Got them for my children and I. We use an all natural homemade toothpaste and I was given a tip about bamboo toothbrushes. The only reason I took away 1 star is because even though the bristles are in fact soft, we experienced some light bleeding when we first started using them. This has went away but I'm not sure if this will happen again being we replace toothbrushes regularly, and I do plan on purchasing from this seller again. I also like the way they're numbered so my children won't be confused on what toothbrush belongs to who.

Two week adjustment period
Beautiful packaging, stylish product.Two major flaws to consider:1. This toothbrush is supposed to be soft, but it really hurt my gums the first couple weeks. Flexible, but thin and sharp bristles kept getting under my gums irritating them. And keep in mind, I don’t have sensitive gums whatsoever, this is the first time I experienced something like this. It was painful every time and I had to be really careful and use swiping motions. It got better, I’m not sure if my gums got used to it or the bristles softened. I’m planning to soak the next brush in hot water for a little bit before the first use and see if it helps.2. Because the corners of the brush are rather square and not rounded like on plastic brushes, it irritated the corners of my mouth. Those areas were red and sore for the first two weeks. It also got better and I don’t experience this anymore.Overall, it’s ok now that I got through all the hurdles and I plan on using the whole pack. But only because I wouldn’t want to throw it away and add to the waste I wanted to avoid in the first place ordering eco toothbrushes. I’ll see how the other toothbrushes in the pack go, but if I have to go through this 2-week adjustment period with each of them, it’s not worth it.

Love these!
I love these! We’ve tried a few brands and if you’ve used bamboo toothbrushes before you now that they can sometimes be bulkier to brush with than a plastic brush, especially for a small child. These are much easier to use and are the perfect size for both my 3 year Old and my 1 year old. The bamboo is slim and more round where as others the bamboo is more squared off (hopefully that makes sense). My three year old loved the colors too. Will be buying these again for sure.

Purely Amazing!
By far the best toothbrush I've ever used. The simplicity of the design lightweight feel and overall result is just amazing. If the fresh out of the dentist office clean feeling isn't enough to buy this product, the fact that it is biodegradable should be. Will definitely be buying these on a regular basis

Good brushes - watch out for mold.
I did like these right out of the box. They're good-looking and sturdy.I keep my brushes in a closed brush-holder, and over time, this nasty mold started to grow on the end. My theory is because this brush, which tends to soak up water because of the bamboo handle, is a good spot for bacteria/mold to grow. And, my brush holder probably acts like a little humid incubator. You'll need to dry off this brush completely before putting it away (and maybe not used a closed brush holder like I have). You'll probably have to replace it more often.The bristles are much softer than most brushes you'll find at the grocery store. Overall, nice design and I'm glad I could find something that's a little more eco-friendly than grocery store brushes.

You'll never use plastic brushes again!!!
This is the first time I have ever had a non-plastic toothbrush and I WILL NEVER GO BACK. My teeth feel amazingly clean after brushing with these, which is surprising because the bristles are so soft!!! I have periodontal disease, this have sensitivity and bleeding gums, but since I've been using these brushes, I've noticed a major improvement. I haven't had any issues with bristles or the wood breaking down at all, and they are great for the environment. I would highly recommend these!!! I'll be using these for the rest of my life!!!
