The modern design is also closely tied to Quip's secondary mission: taking down Big Toothbrush. (FWIW, the American Dental Association backs the claim that a lot of people aren't brushing enough.) As more people get on board with the idea of everyday objects “ sparking joy,” it seems like the right time to make that argument.
Creators Enever and May, who both have a background in product design, told me they see Quip as a health startup, and think that maybe if you really loved your toothbrush, you’d use it more.
#QUIP VS SONICARE ONE TV#
(But the TV version of said dorm - not, like, an IRL space dorm.)īTW, that tube also has a sticky strip on it, so you can mount it on your mirror or bathroom wall (like in this picture).ĭo you have heart-eyes yet? Because that’s the goal. The Quip arrives in very sleek, minimalist packaging that suggests you’ll be brushing your teeth in a friendly space dorm. If you, too, have been curious - or if you saw the photos above and thought, Hell yes, I could get down with a pretty toothbrush! - read on for my thoughts on what the Quip is like IRL. Later, I interviewed founders Simon Enever and Bill May (who are SO nice, but look like they were sent directly from Central Casting to portray hipster bro startup founders) at Quip’s office in Dumbo. So a few weeks after I bought the new Sonicare, Quip sent me two toothbrushes to try and review. It's fine (I’d owned two Sonicares before this one and both were fine), but the Quip caught my eye because it’s so beautiful, and because I was seeing the ads everywhere. In July, I told my dentist that I was planning to get a Sonicare she approved, and told me to make sure that I got one with a “DiamondClean brush head.” This seemed reasonable enough.except then I discovered that the DiamondClean one costs $190, to which I said “lol NOPE BYE,” and bought this one instead, which cost $25 at the time. My journey to the Quip began when I decided to re-commit to flossing and start using an electric toothbrush again.
