Q: Can this product be used for multiple children in the household? Or is it recommended that each child have their own?
submitted by RScott - 7 years ago
A: I wouldn't recommend multiple siblings using the same one, especially in winter during the cold and flu season. The clear plastic applicator that you insert into your mouth and move back and forth across the tooth - gum line snaps in and out for easy replacement. BUT I don't see how a parent could mark each child's applicator for easy identifying. I highly recommend this Waterpic flosser for kids (age 8 and older) or adults.
submitted byhealthy teeth and gums - 7 years agoA: Both of my daughters use them. Well...if siblings, I am sure they don't have a problem sharing it.

Q: I was thinking about buying this, I'm NOT a kid. What I want to know is this, this WILL NOT leak after I put water in it, will it?
submitted by Margaret - 8 years ago
A: I bought this for myself and not kids. It has not leaked on me yet. I like the small compact size of it.
submitted byHolly - 8 years agoA: If you leave water in it after you use it, it will leak. My advice is to make sure you empty the holding container when you are done. Other than that this is a nice water pik. We got it for my son's braces and it worked great!

Q: What age is the youngest age that could use this?
submitted by Targetmom - 2 months ago
A: Hello Tagetmom - The Water Flosser for Kids by Waterpik is typically recommended for children ages 6 and up. However, it's important to ensure that the child is capable of using the device properly and safely. Supervision by a parent or guardian is recommended to ensure correct use and to help the child develop good oral hygiene habits. If you have any concerns or specific questions regarding your child's oral health, it's always a good idea to consult with a pediatric dentist.

Q: Does this hurt your gums? Regular waterpik hurts my gums
submitted by Mary - 4 years ago
A: Hello Mary - If you have not flossed regularly in the past, it may take some time for your gums to get used to it. We recommend that you start on the lowest pressure setting that is most comfortable for you. You can adjust the pressure gradually as your gums become stronger. However, if pain persists, we recommend speaking with a dental professional.

Water Pik is Dentist recommended and praised for the protection provide for gum health. I have had a Water Pik as far back as Teledyne Water Pik was heavily advertised on the media before a Christmas season in my young life. It was a holiday gift to me in my stocking above a fireplace by Santa.
Works well, but could be improved

Asia - 3 months ago
It’s a waterpick with a relatively small footprint. However, if it had a cover over the water reservoir to protect from dust settling inside that would be helpful. Also, because I use it on my kids, it really needs a pause button. Without one, it makes a huge mess. I’m thinking of getting a cordless water pin, instead. This isn’t user friendly enough without those improvements.
Not just for kids.

I am an adult and I love this child's waterppic flosser. It has a powerful stream and it is easy to empty and to care for. I really like how it takes up so much less space on the countertop than the bigger adult flossers.

Cancer warning. This product is for kids. Don’t say this on the website or when I checked out that it had a cancer warning on it.

We recently completed testing of our water flosser products for compliance with the California Prop 65 law. Test results indicate no chemicals on the Prop 65 list were detected or exceeded the Safe Harbor Limit; therefore, placing the warning label on our water flosser products is not required.

mary db - 7 months ago, Verified purchaser
I purchased this for the size, was tired of the Ultra I had. I like the low pressure settings but it is very rough. I really miss the rotating handle, and I think the motor in the Ultra provides a more gentle flossing. Really wanted to love it. Super cute, but after months of using it I'm finding I'm water flossing less and my gums are more sensitive.

T McB - 9 months ago, Verified purchaser
The unit is smaller than the adult version and the choices are sufficient compared to what I used on my previous adult unit. It seems to hold enough water and the water bin acts as a cover for hygiene purposes. It does seem a little less substantial/durable compared to the adult version. However if it lasts as long as the other, then I feel I have gotten my money’s worth. My previous adult model didn’t last as long as the 1 I had before it, so I decided to try this version which was slightly less expensive.

Humher - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
Poor quality; seems more like a toy than a dental device. Returned for an adult/regular version. No lid on water reservoir, making is seem unsanitary. And, water reservoir is designed to cover the base, making it even less sanitary.

Hello Humher - We're sorry you are not satisfied with the model. Waterpik stands behind the quality of our products and the warranties that accompany them. The reservoir on the WP-260 Kids Water Flosser unit can be flipped over to act as a lid or storage. However, we do offer a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Has a Prop 65 warning

My first review was “moderated” for not meeting guidelines. All I can think is the warning on the box is meant not to be seen? I was assured before purchase there was not a warning but when it arrived there was a warning. All I want to know is what components are required to have the label. It is a product for children and I would appreciate a forth coming response.

I purchased my first Kids Waterpik in 2014. The adult Waterpik’s felt like they were cutting my gums, even on the lowest setting. My 2014 machine sprang a leak in the hose. I thought having this for 9 yrs was great, since I use it 2-3x a day. I immediately ordered another one! I love this machine!
Great product!

I purchased this for my ten year old son to use since he hates flossing. It’s compact and fits nicely on the vanity. The pressure is the right amount for his gums. The only negative is that the handle on the waterpik doesn’t have the power button on it like the adult version. Every time my son needs to turn it off he makes a big mess because he has to look for the power button on the unit. Overall, it’s a good product just a little messy.

We purchased this water flossed for our 8 year old as she just got a palatial expander and will progress to braces eventually. It worked well and she used it with ease. However we recently removed the wand attachment and noticed mold on the interior. There doesn't seem to be a way to thoroughly clean this so we are left with it being unusable.

Hi Lindsey B - We are sorry that this happened. Running distilled white vinegar and warm water through the unit and handle soaking the handle regularly, as recommended, will prevent the issue by breaking down any buildup that may be accumulating. Here is a link to our cleaning blog that has detailed cleaning instructions: https://www.waterpik.com/oral-health/product-support/articles/how-to-clean-waterpik-water-flosser-vinegar/. If this does not fix the issue, the unit carries a two-year warranty. We would be happy to help! Please email me directly at smreviews@waterpik.com. Or you can call customer service at 1-800-525-2774 for assistance.

After about 3 years and 6 months, the tip wouldn’t insert into the handle. I’m guessing something broke inside the handle. But, I liked that the compact size that I bought the new model WP-310. I hope it will last long too. This model, WP-260, is not only “for kids” as advertised.
