The main handle is a more muted grey colour, whilst the very top of the handle and the brush head is a slightly darker and glossier grey colour. Ordo is available in 3 different colours, but it is the grey colour option that I have here and I have to say it looks really quite smart. This is a positive, but it would be nice if extras such as a travel case and power adapter were included. Included is everything you need and not lots of unnecessary extras.
#DOES SONIC CHARGE FOR CONDIMENDS MANUAL#
Underneath are the charging stand and brush head in separate cardboard boxes.Īn instruction manual is then found at the bottom of the box, this is nicely laid out and worth a quick read. Ordo comes packaged in a smart cardboard box, which calls out the key features as you might imagine.Īs you lift the lid on the box it reveals the brush handle.
Here are what I consider to be the pros and cons of the Ordo Sonic+. The 25ml is useful for the odd week away, but I can’t help but think for the vast majority, this is not a requirement and money or packaging could be saved. Ordo are ultimately trying to offer some choice and simplicity at the same time.Įnvironmentally, I am not sure I quite understand the need for a 80 and 25ml tube of paste on each subscription.
That said, more choice can make things much more complicated for us as the buyer and Ordo as the seller. I would love to be able to subscribe to the heads and the mouthwash for example, but not include the toothbrush and dental floss. If you remain subscribed, the 1 year warranty on the toothbrush is extended for the life of your subscription.īeing a bit cynical, one of the appeals of the subscription services is convenience and choice, yet you are restricted with Ordo. You can cancel or amend your subscription at any time. That said, for the £5 premium to get the ‘Recommended Refill’ you are getting pretty good value here. The only option you have is to manually purchase a replacement brush head every 3 months or bulk buy a load and keep them for when you need them. It is an appeal of subscription services Quip and Burst offer. I do feel that this is ultimately a bit of an oversight. Unfortunately and in my opinion rather frustratingly, there is no option to subscribe to replacement brush heads only. Once set up, the refills will automatically be dispatched to your door as and when you expect them. You then choose what you would like to be delivered at the agreed intervals.Īt the time or writing, the choice is as follows: If you select the starter kit, you will then select whether you would like to subscribe at 1, 2 or 3 month intervals. You do get quite a bit of extra value from the starter kit option though, as you can see. You do not have the option to buy the ‘Brush & Starter Kit’ as a one off purchase, without subscription. You can only subscribe to the ‘Brush & Starter Kit’ option. You CANNOT subscribe to the ‘Brush Only’ option. When selecting Ordo, you will make an initial purchase of the toothbrush, be that on its own or with additional accessories. Subscription services have become more prevalent in our lives and offer a certain convenience and predictability which many of us welcome. It works like a physical magazine subscription would, the difference being rather than a magazine you get oral health care products. With a subscription service you pay a fee at a regular interval and in exchange you receive the agreed product/service at predetermined intervals. The main appeal is the subscription service. When purchasing the Ordo Sonic+ you have a number of choices, the primary being whether you subscribe or not.
