Do any of you have suggestions? I am going to get one...I was thinking the cordless would be more convenient; but in reviews a couple people said the cordless didn't hold enough water.
Should I slurge and get the 60.00 plug in or the 50.00 cordless??
Thanks in advance!

Can't decide, Waterpik plug in or cordless

I think the bigger consideration would be what some people say about the cordless waterpik not having enough power to do it's job properly.
Personally, I use the cordless ultra and it's working great for me. Yes, sometimes I need to squirt more around the bands and I run out of water but it's no biggie to refill and continue.
It's definitely a winner for me because though it's big and unwieldy, I can still pack it with me on trips. And for short trips, I don't even need to bring the charging cord.

I have the plug in (Ultra, I think), I use it all the time. When I'm at home it makes cleaning SO much easier.

LOVE my plug in waterpik!!!!!! I am a horrible flosser, and always was, but now with the braces I am trying to be a bit better!! I use it at night, and occassionally during the day if I eat something that is stuck in my teeth!!!
As summer is approaching, the only thing that worries me is it's not portable, and I will really miss it when we go on vacation, I will have to resort to flossing, yuck!!!!!!
