Don't Confuse the earlier WJ7 with the newer WJ7B
A few years ago I gave up on the WaterPik for various reasons. After my last Waterpik failed completely, I bought a Conair Interplak WJ7 which I loved! I did the job plus it was simple in design, had plenty of 'power', a perfectly adequate resevoir (for me anyway), and a lower price that WaterPik. I then proceeded to buy one more each for my brother in FL, and my sister in MA, as I MUST have my WaterJet whenever I visit them. Later I decided to get another one for the downstairs bathroom, so ordered this one from Amazon in Jan 04, despite many poor reviews, which surprised me. Most of these one-star reviews cited low power. Not a problem I figured, so continued on with the order. Bottom line, this new Water Jet was a Model WJ7B, included some hokey attachments, and horrors -- low power!!! I tried to use it, but finally gave up and actually threw it away in disgust. How could Conair ever let such a poor performer get into production? On the good side, a search of Google/Froogle shows what appear to be lots of sites still offering the superior WJ7, which I am going to order for my downstairs bathroom.
