My wife bought new toothbrush heads on her way home from work today.
They didn’t fit. She bought the “Oral B IO” heads, but we have a “regular” Oral B toothbrush, not the Shiny Fancy IO design.
And this is after she bought replacement heads last week at another store – which turned out to be “compatible for” a different brand :(
Ugh.


IO is the expensive line isnt it? it isnt worth it to get those. get 1000-1500 series, the heads the off brand ones are relatively cheap on amazon. i got the german replacement heads for the 1000, 10 for under 20, these are official replacement for the EU version, it still works on the american ones.
dont buy replacement heads in store, oral b gouges people with it. its pratically the printers inks of the brush industry.
Ah, there’s the thing. My wife and I try to avoid buying from amazon. Bezos has too much of our money already.
We do look for off-brand replacement heads, but there are more gotchas than I realized until last week.
the OG heads are very expensive unfortunately, thats why i had to buy it replacement heads online that are adjacent off-brand. i dont see my oralb1000 german edition anymore(likely becaise it was from EU and its hard to ship it to the states)
