" ... I've always loved the 2 minute timer. ... "
" ... You just don't have the automatic modes for them which is really just a different cycle brush time for each brush head type. ... For example, on the 6100 model, the "White" mode is a 2-minute and 30 second cycle while the "Gum Care" mode mode is a 3-minute cycle. ... The "Clean" mode is your standard 2-minute cycle. ... "
" ... The other differentiating feature of the 6100 is the ability to change intensity levels (3 levels), but I always leave it on the highest intensity level so that feature really doesn't matter to me, but if you have sensitive teeth, that feature may be important to you. ... For example, on the 6100 model, the "White" mode is a 2-minute and 30 second cycle while the "Gum Care" mode mode is a 3-minute cycle. ... The "Clean" mode is your standard 2-minute cycle. ... "
" ... "Clean" and "White" are really the only two modes I set the brush mode on, and I feel like anything more than that is extra, so there is no need to buy the super expensive Philip Sonicare brush when you can have this one. ... "
" ... I like that there is 3 speeds and 3 clean modes. ... If you like the more sensitive mode pick the clean mode on No 1 speed. ... "
" ... Also love that I can change the cleaning mode and pressure based on my current needs. ... "
" ... The gum cleaning mode vibrates differently as well. ... "
" ... The automatic timer is a nice touch. ... "
