This not only cleans your toothbrushes, it makes them last longer too!
Your mouth will be cleaner and thank you for it!

I am very happy with our vio light.
We purchased it 9 months ago. I have not had to replace any of the parts.
Assembly: you must put it together properly and click the top piece in place
or the safety feature will not allow the light to turn on. I didn't figure this out at first,
and it appeared to not work.
Easy Cleaning:I put the top pieces in the top of my dishwasher after I rinse them out.
I really like it, and am looking for the travel component as well. I think it is a bit expensive but would never go back
to storing my family's toothbrushes any other way. Especially since my young children often catch colds.

The toothbrush sanitizer seems to work well, but could stand improving. There
is no cover (or lid) for the unit, so why bother to sanitize if your toothbrush
remains "open" to dust, etc? I went to the hardware store and purchased a plastic
cover that sits over the toothbrush area, but would definitely recommend that a
tight-fitting cover be included with the unit.

 Waste of moneyDec 17, 2009
I had the violight for almost a month and now it doesn't even work. I wasted money on something that was not worth my money.

Think about it a minute. These are absolutely useless products.Dec 02, 2009
Who would actually think such a gizmo is even useful if it DID do what it claims?
(1) Anything that gets on your toothbrush head was ALREADY in your mouth. Unless you think your houseguests are cleaning their shoe soles with your toothbrush while you aren't looking.
(2) You are sitting a wet toothbrush head upside down in this gizmo. Which means it is sitting in a puddle of water that is likely to mold/mildew. So you can put mold/mildew INTO your mouth (that was NOT in your mouth before).
(3) The puddle of water is likely to (a) rust out the innards of this gizmo and (b) short-circuit the gizmo's electronics.
(4) The American Dental Association says these gizmos have no proven beneficial health benefits:
[...]
Given all that, it seems your money would be better spent betting "Hard 8" at the Craps table in Vegas.
