Dental Lace Refillable Clean Dental Flosser Handle - Stainless Steel Reusable...

Not for beginners, but I love it nonetheless! I have been a reusable flosser user for a few years now, but I had a plastic V-shaped flosser (they're great, too!). Plastic ones are fine, but the dental floss will eventually saw through the plastic posts so I wanted something more permanent. This one is a nice size and I actually really like the handle vs my plastic one! The metal is very smooth so no sharp edges at all from what I experienced. My advice would be to sit down and take your time flossing because you are dealing with a metal thing in your mouth and that could definitely lead to some potential accidents if you're not careful even though the edges are smooth. 10/10 overall, no complaints over mounting the floss, it grips it really well and I don't find that I lose tension while flossing which means the metal knob does hold the floss in place really well!

It's too big to fit in to the back of my stupid mouth AND the floss doesn't stick around at all. Threw it out after trying for two weeks. I'll just keep doing it the old fashion way even though I haaaaaaaate it

I've used the plastic floss holder for years. They work well, but they breaks. This stainless steel floss holder looks to be sturdier. But it has a couple of issues. One is it came with the width between the end of the tongs was too narrow. It was hardly wider than the width of my molars. Being metal, I was able to pull the tongs out to make it about 0.5cm wider. I think the inside width between the tongs should be about 23-25mm. Second issue is that the handle is too narrow in the middle. It looks nice, but not functional. It should not taper in like that. It can twist in your hand easily when you try to press the floss down between the teeth.

Trying to be better for the environment, this is an alternative to the plastic onetime use flossing tooth pick tools, but it is a little more work to find the correct floss tape and get it to stay. I still have some kinks to get the perfect set up.

Heavy, bulky, difficult to use. Sharp edges/hooks to hold the floss. Was hoping this would cut down on floss use but I end up using even more than previously due to the need to wrap so much of it. Floss doesn't stay within the holds well. Can't adjust the floss within the holder. Twist doesn't work well. Tool itself is solid and durable but the overall design is over sized and difficult to maneuver. Unfortunately I'm outside the return date, but I will not be using this. Definitely should have checked reviews before purchasing.

The handle works well, just as I optimistically expected. It's easy to put floss on it and to use it to floss teeth. The handle is comfortable in the hand at all angles, it's not sharp or uncomfortable in the mouth, the floss stays on the handle. There are plenty of bad reviews that I can see now are operator error. First, the floss must be good quality, not the low quality stuff that comes with the handle. Good floss stretches a little, so the length tied to the handle has some slack allowing it to curve around the tooth for flossing it, then the one next to it, before moving on. The little rounded prongs at the tips keep the floss on well. But all that requires a little skill, keeping the floss tensioned by pushing the handle forward while working the floss between and then against the teeth. Closely spaced teeth require some working side to side along the floss to get in there at first, then flossing, then side to side again back out. That can wear the floss faster, so replacing it once or more during the operation is good practice. Which also gives fresh floss for the next teeth. So put double the length of floss needed to load it and screw it down, then unscrew/advance/rescrew the screw clamp as teeth are done and the floss wears. Any flossing requires a little skill, and this handle's skills are a little different, but only a little. Once up to skill it's much easier with the handle than barehanded. I'd give the handle 5 instead of 4 stars, but it could be improved. The screw clamp could have a flange on the back side of the handle so it can't screw all the way out and drop off. Instructions could be included for people who can't figure out the slightly different skills. The included floss is garbage, including its plastic bag, which is just a waste. But otherwise the handle works very well, is cheap and durable. At about 25% higher price than a pack of flimsy plastic versions that will break / wear out within months, this handle will last for years, and is well worth it.

In the pics this looks like a metal version of the Flossaid floss holders I've been using for years. Since I broke my last Flossaid I figured I'd give this a try since it is made from stainless steel. It is not nearly as good as Flossaid. Not even close. For starters, the area where you string the floss across is about half as big as Flossaid's is. This gives you almost no length of floss with which to scrape back and forth between your teeth. The handle is also a lot shorter which makes it much harder to hold onto and control. Finally, the metal is heavy and thick enough that if you slip with it (which is easy to do because of its miniscule proportions) you will absolutely damage ypur teeth. So what seemed like a great design idea at first (metal) is actually a very bad idea. The tool will never break, but your teeth definitely will.

This floss wand takes a bit of getting used to, definitely not for beginners. Recommend using with plastic floss unfortunately as bamboo floss will break. Take time and care when using as it is metal in your mouth.

Excellent A little bit awkward at first but perseverance and time has helped - I would buy again (but I don’t expect I will need too) Much more environmentally friendly than most toothpicks

This would be a good product if there was a way to thread the floss through the top of the pick’s arms instead of just an open sided holder for it. When I pull the floss out from between my teeth it comes out of the holder and needs to be rethreaded, which is tedious for every tooth.
