Title: Poorly designed considering the cost
Review: I have had one for four years. From the git go, I had problems with the lid. It is not hinged and it easily falls into the water tank. The clamp that holds the water pik is plastic and it eventually broke but I always had problems with it holding the pik. Whenever the pik is laid flat which happens sometimes when it falls out of the clamp, it leaks water. Apparently, there is a gravity flow. If properly designed, water should eject only when it is pumped. This could also be alleviated if the switch on the pik had to be pressed in order to get the water to flow. As the pik functions, the button can be pressed on the pik to stop the flow but when it is released the flow commences. Personally I would prefer it if the water did not flow until I pressed the switch on the pik. However, what finished the pik off was that the hose began to leak where it comes out at the bottom. Poor design having the hose underneath the pik.
