Couldn't find this price by searching Debenhams' site, it only came up with same model for £180, but £90 listing came up on Google. Mine's currently on charge so it's genuine :D

(£179.99 @ Boots.)

and how annoying to list this and find a voucher listed that wasn't there when I purchased LOL https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3805023

    I had one similar to these batteries didnt even last a year and I ended up throwing it away as I couldn't replace the batteries. Wont ever buy a braun again I now have a Aldi powered brush for a fraction of the price, it doenst have the display thing but you dont need it its just a gimmick

    I agree, £80 for a toothbrush is ridiculous

    £18 does all what Braun one does for a lot less cash.

    I have to disagree with the above posts, I've tried quite a few and we brought this one back before Christmas from amazons black Friday and have to say its a lot better than others I used and you can actually tell the difference when you look at my teeth. My husband has since brought one himself and he too can see the difference compared to what he was previously using too so for me it's worth the money as my teeth look better than they ever have as do his.
    I know it's personal preference but for me you can actually see the difference so I would highly recommend it. Yes some parts of it are gimmicky but I don't think that matters, for me the difference you can see is what makes it worth buying

    Did you try the Aldi one?

    I tried both fair enough haven't had the Aldi one for more than a month or too but I have tried both and there is no difference other than price and the fancy bluetooth display or and the looks. Feels exactly same in terms of how it cleans.

  • Anyone who paid £180 for a tooth brush even at reduced price wants the heads examined. Its a case of high price, well it must be good then. Suckers

    £80 for a toothbrush, its cheaper going to the dentists!!

    Utterly stunned someone would try and sell a toothbrush for that much never mind buy one!

    Sorry sure its a great toothbrush, but due to the amount of coffee i drink and fags i smoke, im sure it would have little effect.

    OMG!! £80 ON A TOOTHBRUSH!!!

    I think thats my budget for the next 5 years on teeth care products (incl the paste!)

    Stunned.

    Dunno wether you can tell but im shocked!

    I think you would be in for a shock then, as it would clean up your teeth.
