I have not had the same experience as the person who said the bamboo toothbrush heads fell apart. I have had the original heads since I bought the system and they are now getting a bit past their prime but that is after at least 8 months usage between the two or three heads that came with the stand and body of the brush. I am thrilled to use it daily, at least twice and often three times a day. I have only had to charge it once since I bought it (why can't cell phones have such a fabulous battery?). I'm impressed with the entire system. I was so fed up with buying commercial battery operated brushes which never coincided with the extra heads I bought at the same time assuming they would fit, but which turned out to not fit the body!!!! These bamboo electrics are literally a delight to replace the head as it is less than two seconds to do it and they FIT!!!! I love, love love this little combo in my bathroom. Thank you etee!
