Flipper Toothbrush Holders Review

We love these cute, playful and convenient toothbrush holders at our house.

All three kids have one in the bathroom. They keep their toothbrushes off the counter and out of the way.

There is no need for a slimy cup to hold them and they dont touch each other-keeping germ passing to a minimum.

As per the website:

"Using the Flipper toothbrush holder is a snap, even on your groggiest morning. All you need is one hand.

1. Patented snap-open mechanism makes retrieving your toothbrush or razor both easy and fun, whether you’re a kid…or an adult!

2. Patented snap-closed mechanism adds a little bit of magic to your day. Insert your toothbrush or razor, and watch the Flipper toothbrush holder automatically close on its own.

3. High-quality suction cups allow for reliable adhesion to a variety of smooth surfaces, including bathroom mirrors and tile surfaces."

Our two boys (the third child is only 1) have no trouble getting the toothbrush into and out of these holders. You simply push toothbrush in and it snaps closed. Pull toothbrush forward and the holder opens. Every now and then the holder will close without the toothbrush in it and then it can be a little tricky to re-open. Simply pull apart at front opening and it should 'snap' back open again.
To wash this item I just put it in hot, sudsy water and we're good to go.

We did have a different animal holder before and the 'holder' part kept popping out of the 'suction' part. It was a bit of a struggle to get it back together and started happening too often so we bought another. We have had no problems with these three and have been using them for over 8 months now.

Our children use regular toothbrushes but I have heard that the 'spin style' toothbrushes are too heavy for the holders and dont work.

As we had purchased these in a store I did not realize that they also make adult styles as well as razor holders! I am very excited to check out the site further and see what styles I can get for myself.
