Neither takes up much space, with the dispenser taking up about the same real estate as a large cup might. I might not have had them out had they been drug store versions with unsightly packaging that can make limited counter spaces look crowded. Much like Quip’s equally attractive Floss Pick - which, for the record, I adored - I found that just having either on my bathroom counter reminded me to floss or swish more. I do think that there’s an argument to be made for this product, though. A similarly sized 500ml bottle of Listerine, meanwhile, costs $5 at your local pharmacy. Refills of the concentrate cost $US7.50 ($10) per bottle, which Quip says amounts to roughly 470ml. While certainly convenient, it’s not necessarily cheaper than just picking up a bottle from the grocery store - depending on what you normally buy. A subscription option will ship refills to you on a recurring basis if you so choose. When mixed with three parts water, the product dilutes to 470 mL of mouthwash. It’s alcohol-free, vegan-friendly, and contains fluoride, xylitol, and cetylpyridinium chloride. Quip’s formulation is a mint-flavored 4x concentrate. Quip has not managed to revolutionise the actual process of mouth-washing, and mouthwash concentrate isn’t new either. Push a button at the top of the device to dispense a teeny amount of the liquid, pour it into the small plastic measuring cup, add water, and swish. Its bottom detaches from the primary chamber to allow a mouthwash concentrate to twist in. Fans of Quip’s minimalist designs will not be disappointed here - the dispenser itself is pretty unassuming while sitting on your counter, which is the whole point. Like others in the company’s product line, the mouthwash starter kit comes in two forms: a plastic matte white version (around $13) and a metal version (about $26) in gold, rose gold, black, and silver.
