SURI 2.0 Toothbrush Review

We’ve been testing the SURI 2.0 Toothbrush for the past three months, and it’s clear that this isn’t your average toothbrush. Out of the box, the build quality and design speak to a premium experience. But what sets the SURI 2.0 apart is its focus on sustainability without sacrificing functionality. With a plant-based brush head and bristles made from cornstarch and castor oil, it’s an eco-friendly option that doesn’t compromise on performance.

Aesthetically, the toothbrush looks sleek on any bathroom counter, which matters more than you might think if you care about how your daily gear integrates into your space. Beyond appearances, the SURI 2.0 is packed with features like a two-minute timer, pressure-sensitivity protection for sensitive teeth, and a powerful 33,000 vibrations per minute motor that makes brushing feel more like a high-tech clean than a basic daily routine.

The Rundown

The SURI 2.0 Toothbrush is designed to feel intuitive while packing in a surprising amount of functionality. At first glance, it looks simple: a single button controls everything. Press it once for regular cleaning mode, a second press for the deeper “intense clean” mode, and a third press turns it off. But there’s more under the hood. Holding the button for five seconds activates travel mode, which prevents the toothbrush from accidentally turning on in your bag—a thoughtful touch for frequent travelers. A low-battery warning is built in, with a red light and beeping sounds to alert you before it dies completely, so you never get caught mid-brush.

Power is where the SURI 2.0 really shines. At 33,000 vibrations per minute, it delivers a noticeably more thorough clean than competitors like quip (15,000) or Philips Sonicare (13,000). You can feel the difference immediately: plaque and surface buildup come off effortlessly, and your mouth feels fresher for longer. The two-minute timer keeps you on track with dentist recommendations, while a built-in pressure sensor ensures that you don’t damage sensitive teeth by brushing too hard. This combination of high power and smart safety features is a rare balance in the electric toothbrush world.

Replacement heads are designed with sustainability in mind, using recycled, plant-based materials for both the head and the bristles. They’re surprisingly durable, despite being eco-friendly, and the subscription service ensures you never forget to swap them out. You can opt for one-time purchases or a regular subscription every three to six months, for flexibility depending on your brushing habits.

The included protective head and optional accessories further enhance functionality. You can store the toothbrush in its travel head when on the go, and the UV-charging case doubles as a hygienic, wireless charging station. Mounting options include a magnetic stand for counters or a wall/mirror attachment if you prefer to keep your bathroom gear off the surface. Even the charging system is cleverly designed: while the case can technically be charged with any USB-C cable, the brand recommends using the provided one to ensure optimal performance. Overall, the SURI 2.0 is not just a toothbrush; it’s a complete brushing ecosystem designed to make daily oral care convenient, effective, and sustainable.

Packability

When it comes to travel, the SURI 2.0 Toothbrush is larger than most other travel-friendly options, so it may take up a little more space in your toiletry bag. The charging case is sturdy and adds a bit of bulk, but it provides the convenience of charging the toothbrush on the go, which is a huge upgrade over the previous generation that required manual plugging. For those of us limited on counter space at home, this case doubles as a tidy storage solution.

Compared to other travel toothbrushes, like the quip or Philips Sonicare, the SURI 2.0 is the largest in its category, yet it feels premium in hand. While it’s slightly less packable, the extra size translates to a more solid grip, higher vibration power, and a more effective clean. For travelers willing to sacrifice a little space for performance and sustainability, the SURI 2.0 strikes a great balance between portability and premium features.

Quick Comparison

In side-by-side testing, the SURI 2.0 Toothbrush stands out for its vibration strength, functionality, and overall premium feel. The quip is the smallest and most portable, making it ideal for minimalist packing, but it can’t match the SURI’s deep clean. Philips Sonicare sits in the middle in terms of size but falls short on power, offering only 13,000 vibrations per minute. The SURI 2.0 delivers 33,000 vibrations per minute, the highest among the three, and provides features like travel mode, pressure-sensitivity technology, and a UV-charging case that neither competitor matches.

When it comes to aesthetic appeal, the SURI 2.0 also wins. It looks modern and sleek on the counter, and the plant-based materials give it a sustainable, thoughtful feel. If you’re prioritizing packability alone, quip is still the top choice. However, for home use or travelers who value both performance and eco-conscious design, the SURI 2.0 Toothbrush is the clear winner.
