Pros & Cons

Pros

This system makes it so easy to have carbonated drinks. It does a great job at get substantial carbonation. The led lights make it simple to get the right amount of fizz.

Was delivered quickly and was in pristine condition. Would recommend this product and the vendor. This thing is exactly as advertised.

Got my old unit out and put the first canister in. Refills about $35 with the exchange. They're about $15 for refills, or $30 for new cannisters. Our only unknown so far is how long a single c02 canister will last.



Cons

Sodastream product claims that their co2 cartridges will provide seltzer for sixty (60) liters of carbonated drink. After just a month of use, the bottle fails to release from connection, spewing water and co2 all over. Lights on the product indicate ...  Read More

It's a nice gimmick, but both of my machines *. No offer to replace, nothing.

Sodastream doesn't offer return shipping. The battery is defective and can't be replaced.

Quality


I like everything about this soda maker - it makes great soda with 2-3 pumps, it works well and seems reasonably solidly made.


It carbonates well and holds the bubbles for several days.


If you've ready any reviews that talk about leaks and things breaking, please understand that a lot of that it user error.


If i didn't finish a can of store bought water within an hour of opening it up, i was dumping it out because it was flat.

Price


This is worth every penny, and i wish i'd found and bought one sooner.


Excellent to make sparkling water at home at very low cost!


Now i can exchange the empty for half the cost & always have a full one ready.


Expensive but it pays for itself after a few uses.

Shipping


I had to call customer service, where i go reasonably fast and very pleasant service from a real english speaker.

Packaging/appearance


I selected amazon gift wrap and it came in the most beautiful blue bag with a white satin bow!

Competitiveness


I was spending a lot on topo chico and costco fizzy water and i can make tons of bottles of fizzy water on my own now.


One note- i find the taste is much better if you use filtered water (like from a brita or such).


Decided on the ark ii swedish stainless steel model even though it was twice as much as sodastream.
