I bought one and will report back.

Thanks for posting, PQ. I have a Pretika but can't get spare brush heads anywhere, I keep looking on ebay US.
I'm finding the castor oil method (OCM) and microdermabrsion cloth even more effective for cleaning my pores than the sonic brush. But still a great buy compared to around £100 for the Clarisonic. |

I think this is on of the most cost effective skin treatments I have purchased.
It was fairly cheap - the build and design of the unit is sturdy and attractive.
The brushes are well made and the results are great - my skin feels so clean and toned and the moisture pad makes my skin very smooth after I put my products on with it.
Worth every penny and more.
Replacement brushes now available on QVC web site for £9.00.

I am still really happy with this device - it easily competes with the clarisonic - but what is a huge bonus is the hard noduled massage attachment, I have been using this with a Vit C serum mix once a day - and it really makes my skin look radiant and has almost banished any eyes bags - although I only had a hint of them to start with, but still it is a great device for the great price.

Hi photoqueen
I bought the same model about 3 months ago.I am using the sensitive blue brush, hubby is using the black one.Hubbys skin has never looked so clean, hes a soap and water guy but now he uses dermalogica cleanser with our new gadget and he loves it.I have used it with an exfoliator and it works great.Much cheaper than clarisonic. |

Thoughtful - that is great news.
My partner uses mine with his own black brush.

Zelda
Some days I use the Bliss Fabulous Foaming Face Wash and then on other days I use the DDF Glycolic Face Wash.
What are you going to us Zelda?

Does anyone know of anywhere to get this is the US? I have searched the web and can only find it on QVC UK. I have emailed them and am hoping for good news. It seems ridiculous to spend so much on a Clarisonic when this seems to be the EXACT same thing. Its like Clarisonic has a monopoly here or something, so frustrating! |

I would like to buy it. But I worry about maintenance. |

I use Iseree Cleansing Foam (from Lidl of all places!) with my Pretika. No expense spared!
My skin does have a tendency to get dry and it feels fine after this. |

I just got an email from NCN saying that they now carry the Pretika. It doesn't mention the massage attachment. I emailed Nancy to see if she had replacement brushes and the attachement.
Will report back |

Sorry - I got confused...I saw Pretika mentioned above. This thread is about the treSonics.
Nanci has the Pretika and will have replacement brushes. She is not aware of a massage attachment for the Pretika. |

That's useful Summer_time, I've been hunting for Pretika brushes for ages. Can't see an individual posting for brushes on her site, but I'll find out. |
