That decrepit toothbrush on your sink ledge is begging to be retired. But it’s hard to part ways; you’ve spent an entire year together, plus you put all that work into smashing each of its bristles parallel to the brush handle.

Even though you know the tool is past its prime, it doesn’t require replacing, like an empty tube of toothpaste; the old toothbrush is a relic, and you’ll keep using it until another one is magically gifted to you by your dentist, or by your girlfriend (who at this point is sending you some serious signals).

But also, maybe you just wanna be lazy. We all wanna be lazy. And that’s why toothbrush subscriptions (!!) are the best thing since individually wrapped slices of cheese. Toothbrushes magically appear at healthy three-month intervals. (That's frequently enough for good hygiene, infrequently enough that you know you're not being conned.)

Here are five toothbrush subscriptions to consider for your upgrade. We’d tell you to choose wisely, but each one of them is an easy win.

1. __ Goby__

If you’re ready to invest in an electric brush, Goby gives you a low-cost entry ($50 for the first brush, head, and charger) and sends replacement heads for just $6 every 1–3 months. And, since we love being lazy, Goby does all the work for you; hold it up to your teeth, and the whirling head cleans everything like tiny house elves.

2. __ Quip__

At the start of your subscription, Quip sends you a chargeable base, full- and travel-size toothpaste, a replaceable head, and a travel cover for the head—all for just $40. Then, every three months, you get a new head, AAA battery (how nice!), and the two toothpastes for $10. Best of all, it looks like a space-age toothbrush, and the cover looks like a little astronaut helmet. Second best, you get a super-fresh clean.

3. __ Boka__

When it comes to design, Boka subscribes to “simpler is better.” But past the surface, there’s more: Its Classic Brush has bristles made of activated charcoal, which naturally reduces odorous bacteria in the mouth. You’ll still want toothpaste, though, which Boka includes alongside floss in a bigger subscription package, for $14.50. Or, for 50 cents more, you can opt instead for the Sonicare-compatible electric heads.

4. __ Morgans__

If you want to enroll in an entire grooming-replenishment program (or if your relationship depends on it), then Morgans is an obvious yes. From shaving cream to deodorant to...toilet paper, Morgans lets you adjust the frequency and quantity of each product. And of the toothbrushes: At $6 for two bamboo brushes, you’ll only need to sign up for semiannual deliveries.

5. __ Brusher Club__

For the guy who loves big brands, Brusher Club is the best bet. It’s no-frills: You opt into a quarterly delivery of an electric Oral-B or Sonicare head (all four models cost $8.99) and then fall asleep. Because that’s it. There is literally nothing else to say about Brusher Club, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
