Please rinse and dry your toothbrush after every use.Why Use UV LightUltraviolet radiation is used to kill microorganisms, molds and fungi in various environmental applications. UV sterilization is used for air-purification systems, water purification, aquarium and pond maintenance, laboratory hygiene and food and beverage protection. Ultraviolet light is useful for targeted elimination of microorganisms. UV leaves no residual chemical or radiation and does not harm humans. The treatment works well with airborne and waterborne pathogens.How UV Light WorksUltraviolet light kills microorganisms by damaging their DNA. UV radiation disrupts the chemical bonds that hold the atoms of DNA together in the microorganism. If the damage is severe enough, the bacteria cannot repair the damage and the cells die. Prolonged exposure to UV light helps ensure complete kill-off of all microorganisms. Ultraviolet light penetrates the cells, but does not alter the water, air or food being treated. Nothing is added except energy.

this product stopped working correctly after 45 days. The product would no longer turn itself off after 5 minutes and resulted in draining two brand new AA batteries overnight. I of course, checked the battery compartment to insure everything was as it was supposed to be, then I tried it again with fresh new batteries and it drained them overnight as well. I requested a full refund or a product replacement from the seller but they have chosen not to respond. There are many other companies that sell products similar to this one. My advice is to try a different seller.

Easy for Travel but Doesn't Last for Daily Use
Likes: Easy fit in drawer or travel bag. Easy to keep clean, unlike those things you usually see for travel protection of toothbrush. Dislikes: if you don't dry your toothbrush after every use it lies in a puddle of water. That is kind of icky feeling to me.I don't know how you would know if it really works? Only time will tell after I store a toothbrush in my go bag.Updated...changed from 3 star to 1 star. It lasted for 5 months. Light bulb burned out. It is now plastic that is added to the landfill....but wait, there is a trash can with an X over it. What does that mean? There has to be a better solution. This is not it!

Keeps toothbrush away from germs and eases my mind.
Back to buy another one after I dropped the first one and the connection was broken. Other than that - I liked the product very much. I don't have any scientific way of knowing if it is actually sanitizing the toothbrush or not - but I have always worried about having the toothbrush sitting out - and this eases my mind. I had the first one for a while before I dropped it. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because I thought it should be a bit more durable - but "they don't make things like they used to" !!

Cheap crap. Light stopped working after 1 week. Don’t buy

An OK choice.
It works fine but the 'light hole' is a bit small and I'm not sure the UV light is strong enough or spread over all the bristles. I would order a different model next time. It has worked as expected for the 3 months I've owned it.

They are working well so far. Let's hope they hold up because the more expensive toothbrush sanitizers that I purchased over the years did not hold up long - never buy them.
