Customer Reviews of VIOlight VIO100 Toothbrush Sanitizer and Storage System
Customer Review: I Love This Product
Summary: 5 Stars
For anyone who wants the absolute in oral sanitization, this is the product for you. It's fast, thorough and so easy to use. If you think this is some kind of gimmick, you should know that dentists use a similar method utilizing UV light to sterilize their tools. This is much better than the G. Terminator. I've had both. After a few months the interior of the GT began to turn a nasty brown. Then the plastic became brittle and cracked. This was caused by the heat during the steam process. To make matters worse, GT recommends using distilled water. If you don't use distilled water, you'll get a cruddy build up of mineral deposits. Yuck! Distilled water? That's just one more cost and inconvenience. The company insisted on a complicated return procedure where I paid the shipping costs. With the Violight there is no heat, just UV light. The Customer Service department at Violight is also first rate. They provide prompt, courteous responses to any questions one might have. Buy this product now. You won't regret it.
Description of VIOlight VIO100 Toothbrush Sanitizer and Storage System
The VIOlight Toothbrush Sanitizer and Storage System, designed by Philippe Starck, uses safe, clean ultraviolet light to kill up to 99.9% of the germs it comes into contact with on your toothbrush. The unit holds up to four toothbrushes, including children's and electric toothbrush heads. Using Violight requires no extra steps; simply brush, store, and sanitize!No matter how often you scrub and clean, microscopic critters will thrive in the warm, moist environment of the average bathroom. In fact, a single toothbrush can harbor millions of microorganisms-- millions! That means it's a good idea to sanitize something you stick in your mouth everyday, thus reducing your chances of infection.
 The Violight's nifty design, mixed with the peace of mind it offers, make it a great addition to the bathroom. |
When we removed the sanitizer from its box, we were impressed with the stylish design. It is simple and sleek, with a silver matte-finished body and an opaque, light blue cap. While it looks like an ordinary toothbrush holder, it's actually furnished with a powerful UV germicidal light bulb. After plugging in the sanitizer, we inserted our brushes and pressed the "VIO" button on the front of the device. The bulb switched on, producing a soothing blue glow. In only ten short minutes the bulb switched off and our toothbrushes were left clean and safely stored in the sanitizer.
According to independent studies, the Violight is able to kill 99.9 percent of bacteria living on your toothbrush. Plus, it's ultra-safe to use, and you don't have to mess with dangerous, hot steam or boiling water. We used the Violight over and over again for a week, sanitizing our brushes after each use-- up three times a day. The device consistently did its job and, according to the manufacturer, one bulb should last over 2000 hours. This means you could clean four brushes over two hundred times.

The real benefit of the Violight, though, is that it provides peace of mind and good protection from all kinds of nastiness that might be lurking on your trusty bristles. Although toothbrushes don't feel any different after being sanitized by the Violight, it's nice to know that your brushes are clean and germ free. After finding out that the Centers for Disease Control has even stated that toothbrushes can be a significant source of "potentially pathogenic organisms," we were glad the Violight was around. We recommend it for those who want the ultimate in brushing safety. Without a doubt, the Violight sanitizer puts the "clean" back in oral hygiene.
