It's great

Such a brilliant idea, however the bristles are very hard and harsh on the gums.
29/07/2019, By Arline
A bit hard, but no real negative feedback- i prefer softer bristles but does what you need it to do
16/07/2019, By Lynn
A bit on the hard side, but maybe you're into that?

Great knowing that I can do my part for the environment.

This is a long lasting tough brush, the bristles really do the job and last longer than a conventional plastic brush
29/05/2019, By Stace
Love it and so does hubby!
28/05/2019, By Ray
This toothbrush is great. It works very well and lasts very long. For those who are wondering: the wood does not have a strange taste, the bristles feel no different from plastic bristles, and you'll get used to the texture of the wood when it once in a while touches your tongue or inside of your mouth. I won't be going back to plastic ever again.
21/05/2019, By Bee
Bristles are slightly hard but over time they soften up a bit.
A very pretty toothbrush I must say, but the price is very steep considering it’s just a toothbrush.
14/05/2019, By Natali
This one's bristles lasted longer than other brands. A bit on the hard side though.
07/05/2019, By Al
Good product, does the job just as well as any other "regular" toothbrush.
22/04/2019, By Taryn
Great toothbrush but didn't see it was medium bristles. A bit too hard for us. Must go for soft bristles next time.
11/04/2019, By Jasmine
I have been using this product since 2017 and I really enjoy using it because it works exactly the same as a plastic toothbrush but it's better because it will biodegrade.

I was originally concerned about changing to bamboo but this product has impressed me. The bristles are a good strength and so far - after a month of use - it still looks and feels good. I will add another review when It is no longer able to be used, I wonder when that will be.
02/04/2019, By Monique
Sturdy with firm bristles, just how I like my brushes.
18/02/2019, By Tracy
Love love love this product! I can feel it cleaning my teeth and I can rest assured that I will no longer be contributing to our plastic waste problem!
05/02/2019, By Marsel
We are converted. Good quality toothbrush.
22/01/2019, By Tenique
I have a pretty sensitive...well, everything!! and to be honest, I was a little skeptic to buy one of these after reading the reviews because I thought that I might end up not even using it more than once if it were too hard for my gums BUT it works surprisingly well for me.
03/01/2019, By Sonji
It is a bit hard as other reviewers also said, but leaves teeth smooth and clean. I bought for my whole family and it will be a "staple" in our house
18/12/2018, By Euodia
I have the "soft" bristle one, it's just so hard compared to plastic tooth brushes that are labeled as soft. I don't enjoy it. Also, the bamboo handle seems very dry and sort of not gliding through your mouth like plastic or some other smooth material. I don't think bamboo is right as a toothbrush... It seems like bacteria can accumulate as the bamboo is so porous. Only thing i like is theI have the "soft" bristle one, it's just so hard compared to plastic tooth brushes that are labeled as soft.

I've tried 2 different brands of wooden toothbrushes and this one is definitely the better one. The handle is smooth to touch and the bristles last long and don't fall out.
20/11/2018, By Rini
Simple toothbrush, solid handle, does the job, lasts long and when you are done, no guilt, throw it in the compost heap. The bristle is a bit in the hard side.

A necessity in my home!

Great product
22/10/2018, By Danielle
(Boyfriend's review) "I think its great, it works over time (used it twice daily for a month) so be patient. Has prevented frequent breakouts of cystic pimples and has lightened the appearance of old blemishes.
13/10/2018, By Barbara
I just love this toothbrush. My teeth feel beautifully clean and fresh. So excited to have found a toothbrush which is compostable.
08/10/2018, By Taryn
I love this toothbrush, I've just ordered a second one. I found that the bristles last longer than conventional toothbrushes.
05/10/2018, By Micky
The bristles are too hard for my liking. Yet after only 4 days of use, the front ones are bent and crooked. The shape or lack of longer vertical bristles at the front makes it hard to reach the back teeth and doesn't clear there effectively. Even though I love the idea that it's eco-friendly, you have to be realistic: it's much more expensive than a regulator plastic toothbrush, so I don't see many people trading their conventional toothbrushes for this one anytime soon.
03/10/2018, By Emma
this is my third toothbrush - it last a really long time! the medium is quite firm

I love the toothbrush and it actually looks much better than normal toothbrushes. The brush part is a bit hard but the fact that I now have an eco-friendly toothbrush makes up for it. Thanks for the great service!!!
14/08/2018, By Deborah
I've been using this toothbrush for about a week, so far enjoying it. Took one or two uses to get used to how different it feels to a plastic toothbrush, but it feels normal now and it's definitely doing the job. Feels good to not be using plastic, and this is a very easy substitute.
12/08/2018, By Abigail
The bristles on this are very hard and unusuable for my (sensitive) mouth. I bought this years ago and ended up using for all sorts of other things and it is still kicking.
03/08/2018, By Clara
This toothbrush is so hard, I feel like I am scrubbing my gums off when I brush. I was really not happy with this buy, but I suppose it boils down to preference. My husband is happy with his, although I feel they should label it hard and not medium.
25/07/2018, By Whitney
My teeth have never felt cleaner. I'll never use any other toothbrush! Definitely recommended!
24/07/2018, By Jess
Way better than my previous locally bought eco friendly brush. Medium strength is just perfect
12/07/2018, By Phoenix
I was so excited for the arrival of this toothbrush and more importantly taking the shift toward a planet-conscious alternative. Woohoo!!
Personal preference; the bristles on this are WAY too hard for me to even comprehend using the brush on my teeth. I've felt softer foot scrubbers in my life ;D Will definitely opt for the soft bristled option once I save up for another order.
Also think that the price is a bit of a push for such a simple product, but am happy to pay it until the plastic-free movement is better supported and readily available with more variety.
Still believe this is an important transition but will take me a while to repurchase the right bristles for me as a student.
11/07/2018, By Michelle
I purchased one ages ago, and the quality is very impressive. I'm purchasing more of the same for my entire family :)
05/07/2018, By clinton
A decent toothbrush; basic, no frills and gimmicks. I do find the medium a bit soft and the handle can tend to get a bit moldy towards the end of the 3 months. I have been using this brand of toothbrush for 18 months and have just bought in bulk again
22/06/2018, By Ashleigh
Good toothbrush. Wonderful that it is biodegradable.
05/06/2018, By Monique
Great value for money! I love that the entire toothbrush is biodegradeble and not just the handle. One toothbrush lasts about 3 months, as it should. And it's much more affordable that I expected an eco-friendly toothbrush to be. Will definitely be ordering in bulk once this item is back in stock.
21/05/2018, By Linds
Great toothbrush. Will definitely order again.
20/05/2018, By Ens
So happy with this purchase. A sturdy toothbrush that feels great!
16/05/2018, By Elmonix
I love this bamboo toothbrush, and have already recommended it to countless friends!
14/05/2018, By Jessica
love it
10/05/2018, By Giulia
I love it, eve though I would like slightly softer bristles.
06/05/2018, By Cassandra
Soft on the teeth and works perfectly. Would recommend.
26/04/2018, By tara
love it.
16/04/2018, By Jemma
Love my toothbrush, it's perfect! There's no reason to buy a plastic toothbrush anymore
14/04/2018, By Jana
Very good and feels the same as conventional toothbrushes so easy swap!
12/04/2018, By Rita
I am now placing our third order for these toothbrushes and I can honestly say it is the BEST! We'll never use any other toothbrush ever again.

I've never smiled when a toothbrush was worn and torn to the point where I had to get a new one and now I do. I can compost these and not feel guilty for having to buy a new toothbrush.

The bristles are fantastic and might I say they look much prettier in the bathroom than pink and blue plastic (shudder).
31/03/2018, By Zonelle
These are awesome, totally worth using it.
23/03/2018, By Steph
I love the concept and the bristles are just the right texture.
22/03/2018, By Healthy Girl
awesome
16/03/2018, By Bevinn
The wooden feel took a bit of getting use to, but otherwise great to use. The only downside is that my husband and I can't tell our toothbrushes apart!
07/03/2018, By Courtney
This is my favourite toothbrush! I have been religiously using them for 3 years now and don't see that changing anytime soon!
05/03/2018, By Kay
Really great toothbrush, and can be used to mark pot plants when you done with it
17/02/2018, By Christie
Good toothbrush and am so glad to be able to reduce my plastic usage, basic design but what more do you need really? Just be aware that the bristles are plastic so you need to remove them before composting
06/02/2018, By jess
Great Product and great design, would recommend it over other environmental toothbrushes mostly because they don't package their products in wasteful plastics. Sadly, I have read some reviews: that say the bristles aren't biodegradable. My Plastic Free Life does an excellent review on these products: https://myplasticfreelife.com/2015/12/the-truth-about-your-biodegradable-bamboo-toothbrush/
and wastelandrebel is there to back her up:
http://wastelandrebel.com/en/my-quest-to-find-the-most-sustainable-toothbrush/


hopefully someday they will all be completely biodegradable

05/02/2018, By Lyn
Its great. Its basic in design for sure, but I think it does an absolutely excellent cleaning job and for me, the medium bristles, are the perfect hard to soft ratio. I will never go back to my old toothbrushes. Am 100% satisfied and would advise everyone at least gives this product a try.
05/02/2018, By Melissa
Last's super long and gives a decent brush. Would be great to add a feature to tell them apart when the whole family is using them.
31/01/2018, By Daniel
Works well enough but the brush-head's design needs work. It's a bit oversized relative to the bristles so it's difficult to manoeuvre around the back of the mouth.
18/01/2018, By Tandy
It works just as good as a normal toothbrush and at the same time you help save the planet, great product
04/01/2018, By Bron
Love that the entire toothbrush is biodegradeble and bristles have softened after a few weeks of use (bought the medium strength)
Cons: handle is a bit short, bristle design could be improved
27/12/2017, By Luci
I wish I could recommend this as I so believe in using biodegradables and was so keen I bought 6! But ... and I would rather be giving this feedback to the manufacturer. The design is completely unsophisticated. The shape is like the first toothbrush ever made, and is akin to the cheapest nastiest version on the shelves today. A few small innovations could have made this so good!
24/12/2017, By Astrid
I feel like such a good person when using this and I now look my friends up and down when I see them using plastic toothbrushes.
22/12/2017, By Tracey
looks amazing and works well
21/12/2017, By Heleen
Amazing!!! I absolutely love these toothbrushes. They lasts surprisingly long and once you need to get a new one, you just pop this one in the garden.
30/11/2017, By Jes
The handle is sturdy, easy to hold and super smooth (no fear of splinters getting in my palm). Having come from a super-soft bristle toothbrush (plastic!!!), the transition to medium bristles has been a slight process, but (because of the stronger bristles) my teeth are cleaning with such ease, now! Next, I'll buy the soft bristled version of this brush. There's no way I'm going back to plastic. This toothbrush is fantastic.
30/11/2017, By luci
Great tooth brush! Bristles last and my husband also converted after I bought one.
29/11/2017, By Nikki
I think this isa great, good looking toothbrush that does the job and helps give the environment a break. I am a convert - no more plastic. The only thing is if the whole family is using them - they all look the same.....
29/11/2017, By Amber
I love this toothbrush. Better for the environment and cleans well. Unfortunately occasionally I do get one where all the bristles come out, but in general its worth the buy
28/11/2017, By Nicola
Great environmentally friendly option, have been using mine for a few months and it is awesome!
