Note: This is the 6th duplicate (7th version) of my question (re. new
product/floss holder), and it is reposted because I have  new
questions without answers and  after the changes made in the web-page
in discussion, -- http://www.geocities.com/emailerss/ --
I would like to get an answer only from a researcher who is frequently
flossing -- using floss, two hands and no other help.

The web-page is showing instructions (mostly pictures) how to use a
patented dental floss holder (tensioner)and explanations .
This floss holder is good for about 250 all-teeth flossing sessions,
then it can break. I am asking answers to the following questions:
1. Is it clear from this web-page how to use this product, and how
many minutes have you (the researcher) spent on it?
2. Can a comment of at least one word be given by the Researcher to
the following chat  correspondance re. the product, and if yes then
what is it?
"
Question: I would probably not use this product myself. I have used
single-use floss holders similar in shape to this one, and I have
found that in using these I cannot achieve the desired angle between
floss and teeth-- usually I want the floss "bent" around my tooth more
than these devices allow. This situation may be different with your
device, though, due to the variable tension.
::::googel’s answer: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Obtaining bending angle of quarter of circle no problem. Floss between
prongs can run “parallel”toTeeth –betweenTeeth-“parallel”toTeeth for
most of the teeth. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<googel-1e

Q: Anyone who uses a disposable floss holder may be willing to use
this device. People with limited use of one hand would certainly
welcome this, assuming that the threading instructions don't require
two hands.
::::googel’s  answer: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The floss is mounted using 2 hands before flossing.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<googel-1e . . .

Q: How long does the device take to actually thread with floss? 
::::googel’s answer: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The  6-8 in. floss takes 15 – 60 seconds, 14-18 in. floss takes 10-25
seconds <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<googel-1e . .

Q: I like to occasionally switch the area of floss I'm flossing with,
especially if the floss is becoming thin or ragged at a particular
spot. Can this be done easily with the device?
::::googel’s answer: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 
The loop made from the 6-8 in. floss is great for this. It can be done
with one hand if one is willing to “bite” the floss between the prongs
and pulling/gliding loop aroung.

3. . Can you (the researcher) see any use of this product for
yourself?
