What to look for in a cordless water flosser<\/h2>

Flossing time<\/h3>

Your portable water flosser<\/strong> should let you floss for about 45 seconds before running out of water. That’s not to say that’s how long you should floss<\/a> for \u2014 in fact, many brands recommend flossing for one minute with a water flosser. <\/p>

However, it would seem that most reputable water flosser brands have settled on 45 seconds of flossing as the sweet spot for not having a tiny reservoir that you have to fill up every 10 seconds, to one that is too bulky to handle comfortably.<\/p>

45 seconds of flossing means the reservoir holds a little over 5 oz of water or around 155 ml. <\/p>

Grip<\/h3>

It should be comfortable to hold<\/figcaption><\/figure> <\/div>

It may not seem like a big deal at first, but unlike a countertop water flosser, which has a petite nozzle, a cordless water flosser has to carry its tank around with it, which can be quite heavy and bulky if designed poorly. <\/p>

It should be easy and comfortable to grip and hold for at least one minute, or you’re not going to want to floss. Words like ‘non-slip,’ and ‘ergonomic’ should come to mind during your search. <\/p>

Battery life<\/h3>

If you want to bring your flosser with you on vacation, or you don’t plan on having it plugged in all of the time, you’ll want it to have a battery that lasts at least a couple of weeks. The battery range for portable water flossers tends to be from two weeks to one month. <\/p>

Travel design<\/h3>

Some cordless water flossers come with travel cases or bags, so you can easily back them with you when you’re on the go. Furthermore, some have a more compact design and a sleeker charging base \u2014 these are all things to look for if you’d like to travel with your flosser. As we mentioned above, a longer battery life is ideal for trips. <\/p>

Best overall: cariPRO water flosser<\/h2>

Our top pick for best overall water flosser is the cariPRO<\/a>. It is designed for all of your needs \u2014 whether you are always on the go with business trips, or you are looking for a flosser to use at home. <\/p>

It’s also designed with different oral health needs in mind, like gum disease, people with prostheses, braces wearers, or those who just want to take better care of their mouths. <\/p>

What’s more, it goes beyond everything you should look for in a portable water flosser (mentioned above): <\/p>
