Dental Floss Holder, Refillable & Reusable Floss Pick - Dental Floss Handle - Stainless Steel Dental Floss Holder. Durable Reusable Flosser - One Pack

This is a very good product. I am only writing this "review" for the benefit of the general public who may have been misled by negative reviews of this floss holder into believing it to be useless. This is not so! THE KNURLED KNOB THAT IS SCREWED INTO THE BODY OF THE FLOSS HOLDER IS NOT TO BE UNDONE! With this understood the so-called "problems" with this floss holder immediately disappear (I am not a metalworker but I presume the knurled knob is a separate component because this is the most cost-effective way to manufacture this item). To use, wrap one end of a piece of suitable length floss around the knurled knob a few times and then position the floss in the grooves of the prongs and across the gap between them. Having done this apply tension to the unsecured end of the floss and wrap it several times around the knurled knob.

This stainless steel flosser, on the right, is roughly a copy of the flosser type I have been using for years, pictured on left, with two differences; it is a tad smaller which is not a big deal, and it is unbreakable, which IS a big deal. The plastic one, brand name Flossaid, is an excellent tool and is the only reason I floss daily, because I refuse to put my several fingers in my mouth to floss, daily, using the floss and fingers method. Way too unhygenic. And the little plastic disposable ones are too small, I still need to put fingers in mouth to reach back teeth, too flimsy, and too wasteful. Disposable means wasteful. The big drawback to the Flossaid and similar products is they always break after a few months of use. One tine always breaks off near the handle. So they need to be replaced frequently. This cost adds up $$$. I just did a first use of the metal one and it feels like using the plastic Flossaid, just a tad smaller and heavier. The major point here, to me, is that the steel one will never break! I am very happy to have found this product. Tip: Wrap 10 or 20 yards of floss tightly around the handle. When you need to reload the fork to floss again just unwrap a few inches and put it across the tines. Each reload will be much faster than and less fumbling than reaching for the floss box. Waxed floss stays in place on the handle much better than unwaxed floss. Dentist joke: "Only floss the ones you want to keep!"

I tried for an hour to see if I could figure out how to wrap the floss around the screw so it didn't slip and loosen up when I was flossing. No luck, couldn't do it. Probably because the screw head has a bevel on the under side of it. The floss keeps slipping and loosening up when flossing making the flosser mostly unusable. Also, the free floss that was sent along with the flosser wasn't any good either. It was like trying to floss with regular string because it was so thick. Seems like the plastic flossers are better.

I love this tool so much. Flossing normally (sticking my fingers in my mouth and getting the gunk, spit, etc on my fingers) is really difficult for me because of the overwhelming textures. I am so happy there is a tool that isn't just a single use throw away, this is exactly what I needed and it works spectacularly well. Cons: -The wheel screw is a bit short, it's trying to be flush on the other side but if you screw out too far it will fall out/off and that is a little scary if over a sink with an open drain. -I also wish the wheel was a bit wider and again not trying to be flush on the sides, it makes it a little hard to turn it and becomes almost completely inaccessible with wet fingers. The grooves for the wheel could be deeper and spaced a bit more, the wheel needs to be larger, and the screw needs to be longer with something to hold it on the other side so it doesn't fall apart so easily while still able to dissemble to clean it. Still, I love this product, the two flosses that came with it were a nice touch, not needed in my opinion with just how much floss I have saved up from all my dental visits, but it was interesting. The black floss was thinner and would be good for people with teeth that are very close together. The white floss is more fiber-y and bigger which is just generally okay. The packaging was wonderfully eco friendly as well. The overall experience for day 1 made me feel very justified in a very easy, very cheap purchase. I'm definitely going to recommend my dentist look into this for other patients that struggle with texture issues like me.

This refillable dental floss holder is eco-friendly and practical, reducing single-use waste in my dental care routine. It’s sturdy, easy to use, and works well with any floss of choice; the ergonomic design makes flossing comfortable and efficient. Anyone looking to reduce plastic in their daily routine should give this a try

Heavy, bulky, difficult to use. Sharp edges/hooks to hold the floss. Was hoping this would cut down on floss use but I end up using even more than previously due to the need to wrap so much of it. Floss doesn't stay within the holds well. Can't adjust the floss within the holder. Twist doesn't work well. Tool itself is solid and durable but the overall design is over sized and difficult to maneuver. Unfortunately I'm outside the return date, but I will not be using this. Definitely should have checked reviews before purchasing.
