    Not the best product dentalwise, since it is recommended NOT to rinse after brushing.
  • Darth · 2 years ago
    This has to be a joke - it is completely retarded.
  • Fran · 2 years ago
    yeah... or you use your hand like a normal person and continue to use the free toothbrush from the dentist.
  • Sujan Patel · 2 years ago
    I dont get it
  • Katie · 2 years ago
    I think its pretty darn smart...
  • monkey · 2 years ago
    pathethic.
  • Austin · 2 years ago
    Yes, this is the most retarded thing i've ever seen.
  • monkey · 2 years ago
    pathethic.
  • Emil · 2 years ago
    This is in fact very smart. I wish them all the luck!
  • Skizmo · 2 years ago
    eeeuh. .. do you really want a reply from me ??

    "No one should have to lap water from their hand." Why not? I don't use throw away cups, I don't have to wash a glass every few days, and it gets the job done.

    Additionally, using your hands undoubtably uses less water than this toothbrush does - just look at all that water going down the drain. In the long run, this is probably worse for the environment.

    Cups? What? Never heard of your hands?
  • John Webber · 2 years ago
    Wow. How hard is it to wash a cup?
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    I think it's a great idea
  • GoTed · 2 years ago
    Yeah, what Ted said, what a waste of water.
  • Izzy's Account · 2 years ago
    I would'nt necessarily use it but i think its very smart, its original, any original thinking should be rewarded in this day and age
  • Colm · 2 years ago
    what about just putting your mouth under the tap..?
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    I always put my mouth under the tap. Very simple, no waste, very effective...
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    I'm sure it's some sort of spoon like device but if there's some sort of a tube involved then that thing is going to get pretty nasty pretty fast.. :-P

    What a waste of water...
  • TLE · 2 years ago
    just a water toy for kids....
  • dada · 2 years ago
    Well, it is all retarded. I used my hands to hold the water so no need for cups or such toothbrush. I haven't had a cup in the bathroom for so long and I can't remember when I first started using my hands instead of a cup.
  • andrew · 2 years ago
    What all of you are failing to realize is that cup goes IN YOUR MOUTH!!! yuck! talk about a breeding ground for bacteria, not to mention that you are going to be rinsing with backwashed toothpaste still trapped in the cup... and because of it's "convient" water spout design if you do try to rinse the cup out you are going to spray water everywhere!!! for me I'm sticking to my hand.
  • Chris Papadopoulos · 2 years ago
    This is definitely incredibly original, but I don't know how useful it actually is.

    It would seem to be easier to cup your hands and bring water up to your mouth than leaning your mouth very close to the sink.

    Still, kudos to the designer for a very original concept.
  • Gary · 2 years ago
    I dont like it
  • James McCancerford · 2 years ago
    I can't believe how much I hate this product. Anyone who likes this toothbrush OBVIOUSLY dropped out of college. Why can't you just use your hand...? Or not rinse at all? I'm embarrassed to have even visited this site.
  • Zak · 2 years ago
    Ditto the waste of water vibe; think of how much goes down the drain for that much pressure.
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    I'd use it.
  • Rocky · 2 years ago
    I'd use it.
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    The use of a toothbrush as a conduit to redirect water for rinsing...huh.
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    Oral B should include this in all of their toothbrushes for the price of "oh I don't know ,on the house"
  • Jack · 2 years ago
    Thats going to cause a LOT of wet pants...
  • dave · 2 years ago
    Awesome! This is really cool and I would definitely buy one! I love minimalistic design...
  • Meg · 2 years ago
    EARTH SAYS ITS OK TO Use this toothbrush...just don't flush every time you pee!
  • LetLive · 2 years ago
    Id buy one and and prolly still use my hands, but thats awesome. its worth 3 bucks... its like a toothbrush water fountain...rad ass toothbrush.. bet u could make up sum fun drinking games with that thing..even tho ud prolly waste half the beer. but i think itd be worth it atleast a couple of times!
  • EllsworthT · 2 years ago
    Very cool idea. I hate cluttering the bathroom counter with cups. I hope the design is such that it doesn't spray water in various directions when I'm cleaning the bristles. (Sometimes I clean the toilet bowl with a toothbrush. If I use this brush, will it spray toilet water in my mouth?)
  • PG · 2 years ago
    I want one !!
  • Jake · 2 years ago
    thats retarded get a sink with a hose and shot the water in your mouth and stop whinning about the normal metheds for getting water
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    What was that someone said about "dentists recommend that you not rinse"?

    How on Earth are we supposed to not rinse? I'm extremely baffled... When I brush my teeth, I end up with a mouthful of foamy, slimy gunk that's loaded with Flouride and other things that humans are ill-advised to consume in large quantities. If I remember correctly, the toothpaste containers even say "do not swallow" on them.

    So has something changed recently? Are we supposed to swallow that nasty stuff or something? I'm very confused now, as I've never heard such advice from any dentist.
  • Styubud · 2 years ago
    It's a case of solving a problem THAT DOESN'T EXIST!! Or could it be for people with no arms? In which case, what the heck are they worrying about toothbrushes for?
    This reminds me of an invention entered for BBC's Dragons' Den....the cucumber keep fresh device......until it was pointed out that you can just cut the end off at the cost of about 2 pence.
    Poor show - find some PROBLEMS to solve you morons.
  • amar · 2 years ago
    you just use your hands, why do you even need a cup??
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    looks like a pain in the ass to get enough water in your mouth to rinse
  • Kristen · 2 years ago
    This definitely has a purpose. Take, for example, a person who has to take a pill every morning, like me (and lots of other women out there). If you brush your teeth and then use your hand, you then have to dry your hands, get the pill out, then use your hands again to cup the water for the pill. If you don't dry your hands inbetween, the pill starts to disolve when you touch it.

    With this, you rinse using the brush, grab your pill, use brush again to swallow - much faster, and no chance of the icky tasting disolving pill in your mouth!
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    I don't know why everything thinks this is retarded.. it actually looks very useful. Having disposable cups around can be annoying sometimes, and using the same cup over and over can be, unhygienic. This solves both of those problems.
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    it's best not to rinse after brushing? right, and swallow a bit of fluoride and a pile of other chemicals 2x a day. you keep that one up buddy. enjoy the stomach cancer.
  • fyrspray · 2 years ago
    *looks at toothpaste* really?? it's recommended not to rinse? wow... so all these years I've been brushing wrongly...
  • orthoguy · 2 years ago
    If you must rinse,rinse with a generic listerine with a flavor that you dont mind rinsing out.As far as the concept,it is highly dependant on the water pressure and abilities of the user to multitask.I believe it might sell but not receive much repeat business.
  • xtllm23@ · 2 years ago
    wow!!!!!! thats a thought.
  • jojo · 2 years ago
    Look at all that water you waste by leaving the faucet on. What you save on cups you will spend on your water bill.
  • scott · 2 years ago
    To all those who brush their teeth in the shower:

    Do you shower after every meal?
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    In love with your own hand? Simply use the Brush & Rinse Toothbrush as a toothbrush and forget about the additional functionality that you just got for free - a small price to pay for dry hands.
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    "Wow, what’s so hard about cleaning a non-disposable rinsing cup?"

    Forget about how often you actually clean your cup and how much water and soap you waste in doing so...

    What about the clutter of having a cup on your sink or counter ALL THE TIME. This definitley saves space....Great for travel too!
  • pauladriaenssens · 2 years ago
    I always rinse with beer.
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    Who uses water to rinse? That's what mouthwash is for.
  • ass guy · 2 years ago
    Yes great idea, but can you clean your ass with it??
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    For all the people who ask why? because they can just use their hands. Why use a car when you can just use your feet? Why use a remote when you could get off your butt and change the channel? Why use the clicker on your key chain when you could just use the key in your hand already?
    This is just one more 'fad'. It may catch on, it may not.
  • Alex · 2 years ago
    Listen, obviously you can use your hands or a cup, but if you buy a toofbrush, why not have this built it?

    Personly, I think its awesome. A really cool novelty.
  • .... · 2 years ago
    concidering 99% of all people leave the water running when they brus anyway, this causes no more harm than using your hands...
  • whitespace · 2 years ago
    just bend over and drink from the tap dammit. you're killing all the H20 here.
  • timbobby · 2 years ago
    No one should have to lap water from their hand??? No wonder kids today are wussy overprotected little pansies who feel entitled to a pain- and obstacle-free life, with messages like that.
  • Anonymous · 2 years ago
    Hahahaha, I could make a mini fountain out of that! *ermcough*
    I find it pointless for myself considering I just stick my head under the faucet, opening my mouth and getting water that way. No sweat really.
    And what's wrong with cups? Should we stop drinking out of them or something? o_O puh!
  • mafme · 2 years ago
    What's so hard about riding a horse or walking wherever you need to go? Why bother with running water and plumbing when you can collect rain water and crap in a bucket? I don't get why people buy tools when you can make everything you need from a bison corpse.

    Anyway, for the "running water" criticism, do you fill your hand up and shut the water off before getting the water to your hands? Are your hands fat enough to seal perfectly or do they leak a little?

    Well apparently you're supposed to just spit, not rinse, or you wash out the fluoride.
  • J Devon M · 1 year ago
    wankers. Why do you want to argue. If you dont like it, GTFO!
  • FaucetDepot · 1 year ago
    Simple but clever. No need to redesign the faucet. Just fix the toothbrush!
