The Novalun N07W electric toothbrush impressed in our test primarily with its very good cleaning performance. Even in the standard “Clean” mode, teeth feel very smooth and clean after brushing. After several uses, a noticeable reduction in existing surface stains and deposits was also observed. A total of five brushing modes are available: “Clean”, “Sensitive”, “White”, “Polish” and “Massage”. Depending on the selected mode, the brush head rotates alternately clockwise and anticlockwise at different speeds (oscillating motion). The rotational speed either remains constant or varies rhythmically. Thanks to the powerful drive mechanism, only light pressure is needed for thorough cleaning. The brushing action feels relatively strong overall. For sensitive teeth and gums, the brushing intensity can be adjusted by combining the supplied soft brush heads with the Sensitive mode, which operates at a reduced brushing speed. The selected mode is displayed directly on the handle. During brushing, the toothbrush briefly pauses every 30 seconds to indicate the elapsed time and automatically switches off after two minutes.

The package includes eight brush heads (six medium and two soft), a protective cap for the brush head, a user manual and a charging station. The toothbrush can only be charged using the supplied charging station, which can either be used free-standing or mounted on a wall with the included bracket. The charging station connects to a standard 5 V USB power adapter via the supplied USB-C cable. A power adapter is not included. The generous battery capacity of 1,800 mAh stated by the manufacturer allows extended periods of use between charges, which is particularly convenient when travelling. Overall, the N07W feels robust and well-built. Its high cleaning performance, numerous replacement brush heads and generous battery capacity contribute to very good value for money.

A few minor details could be improved, particularly in terms of ergonomics and build quality. The cylindrical handle is made of ABS plastic and has no pronounced grip contours or rubberised sections. As a result, the orientation of the brush head in the hand is not always immediately intuitive. Although the brush head fits securely onto its mounting, the tight fit means that slightly more force is required to remove it. The brushing mode labels are only applied to the surface and may therefore become less legible over time due to mechanical wear. Water and toothpaste residue can also accumulate around the on/off button.

Overall, however, the strengths of the N07W clearly outweigh its weaknesses, particularly in terms of cleaning performance, features and value for money.
