#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - NEW YORK TIMES READERS PICK: 100 BEST BOOKS OF THE 21st CENTURY - OPRAH'S BOOK CLUB PICK - ONE OF BARACK OBAMA'S FAVORITE BOOKS OF THE YEAR - TIME'S #1 NONFICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR "An instant American classic and almost certainly the keynote nonfiction book of the American century thus far."--Dwight Garner, The New York Times "[Caste] changes the lens through which we see the world."--Oprah Winfrey for Time, "25 Books That Capture This American Moment" The Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Warmth of Other Suns examines the unspoken caste system that has shaped America and shows how our lives today are still defined by a hierarchy of human divisions. "As we go about our daily lives, caste is the wordless usher in a darkened theater, flashlight cast down in the aisles, guiding us to our assigned seats for a performance. The hierarchy of caste is not about feelings or morality. It is about power--which groups have it and which do not." Beyond race, class, or other factors, there is a powerful caste system that influences people's lives and behavior and the nation's fate. Linking the caste systems of America, India, and Nazi Germany, Isabel Wilkerson explores eight pillars that underlie caste systems across civilizations, including divine will, bloodlines, stigma, and more. Using riveting stories about people--including Martin Luther King, Jr., baseball's Satchel Paige, a single father and his toddler son, Wilkerson herself, and many others--she shows the ways that the insidious undertow of caste is experienced every day. Finally, she points forward to ways America can move beyond the artificial and destructive separations of human divisions, toward hope in our common humanity.

Not what I expected!
I have never used a dental flosser before, and it showed by the mess I made haha.
I can say, this isn't for me, but I can see the appeal. It is relatively lightweight and comes with a lot of different attachments. Loading it up with water is easy and doesn't take much effort.
I would call this portable, even though it is a little big.
I can only stand the "soft mode". If I choose any other, my mouth is overwhelmed.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this if you have experience with dental flossers. It was hard to use at first but you get the hang of it.

Reasonable cost dental device (updated review)
I used this device for a few months to provide an accurate review.
First off, it works. Fill the bottom end section with water, snap in a tip, switch on and go. Easy to use, and the instruction set is short and simple, the result of a thoughtful adoption process. Very reasonable cost. Several heads are provided for you to select. And there are three settings to use: soft, normal and pulse. I did not find any benefit to the pulse setting as it seemed to cycle the water pressure lower than to normal repeatedly.
Several additional items worth mentioning:
1) The water pressure is modest. the lower pressure is made up for in more water delivery.
2) This device consumes water at a rapid pace. What this means is that you will need to either swallow or spill the water out of the side of your mouth at least twice during the 90 second cycle - while the unit is operating. Switch off during the cycle restarts the countdown. Water will accumulate rapidly in your mouth. You need to spill the accumulated water in your mouth with the unit on. If you remove it from your mouth you will have a mess around you.
3) The on-off switch is located on the handle toward the top. You will need to learn to not place your finger over the switch which abruptly shuts the device off. Conversely, if you like to swith off the device during the cycle to neatly spill accumulated water out of your mouth, you may find yourself attempting to find the switch push button without a tactile means of feeling for it.
4) The charge port has a small flexible grommet covering it, which might take a little while to find where it is located.
5) **This is my update from my original posting**: the duration of charge shortened over the last several weeks to the point where with the unit switched on, the lights are on, but the pump no longer works, meaning it died and has been trashed.

Decent water flosser.
This water flosser is a handy way to clean your teeth, especially when you're on the go. It's cordless and rechargeable, and it comes with different tips for various needs. The water tank holds enough for a full cleaning, and it doesn't leak. It has multiple settings, from gentle to strong, to get your teeth feeling fresh. While the tips might not be the most durable, and attaching the top can be a bit tricky, it's a great tool for keeping your mouth clean and healthy. It's a good alternative to traditional flossing, helping to remove bits and keep your gums healthy.

Works better than any of the others I've tried!!
Size: 1.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
Not the greatest tasting but works so great that taste is irrelevant! Actually tastes like cinnamon not mint which is A OK with me! It is the best working and longest lasting of several I've tried. Finally! My search for something that works is over!
