I find it more efficient, I'm getting stuff from between my teeth which I can't get out with a regular floss pick.
I'm pretty sure studies have been done that show it doesn't have the abrasive power of actual floss, so it's not as good at removing plaque. Fine at removing solids generally, which helps, but actual floss tends to be better.
Didn't know about that. Good reason to use both.
