    It tastes good and looks like pop but it isn’t fizzy

    We purchased a black, metal Source from Sodastream in September from Best Buy for $80 along with a spare carbonator for $24. We have been using the Sodastream to make 1-2 liters per day with the maximum carbination. Works great and the first carbonator has lasted about 5 weeks before needing a refill. We have only used the Jet model for comparison, but do love the look and action of the Source. Please note that it does make a loud, screeching noise as more carbination is inserted into the bottle. We always keep 2 liters of filtered water in the fridge as it seems to work/taste better with cold water.

    Picked this up and have to say I love it. I never have to worry about running out of soda when friends and family come to visit, It tastes great, it's easy, cheaper and better for the environment (reusable bottles and no power consumption) you even get a discount for trading in your empty cartridges at Best Buy. My girlfriend hates over carbonated soda and I enjoy a good amount of carbonation, it's great that we can choose how much we want in each bottle that we make!!

    Good Riddance High Fructose Corn Syrup

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It's nice to be able to enjoy the soda that the rest of the world does...Real Sugar? Imagine that? Aside from that, the kids love making the fizzy water, and seem far more open to trying new things...if we add the fizz! What's not to like about that. The product is simple enough for my 5 year old to operate, and it doesn't add to that nest of wires in the power strip. The Sparkling Natural Flavors are great, but overall will cost you a bit more than the originals. However, they are far better for you than the originals. The flavor assortments and recipes are seemingly infinite. Bye bye high fructose Corn Syrup...Bye bye Aspartame...Hello real sugar!

    Love it for Sparkling Water

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've had this for a few weeks and it is perfect for making sparkling water, which is all I use it for. Easy to use. Love that it is cordless and doesn't need electricity. The directions make for easy set up. Not interested in the SodaStream SodaMix samplers as they all contain Sucralose. The only con is that it can make a high-pitched noise when carbonating the water that sends my cat running. Overall, very pleased with this purchase and glad I went with the nicer model.

    First machine was defective but I took it in and the customer support quickly worked with me and got it replaced. I even lost my receipt and they tracked it down in their system. As for the machine itself, the new one works great and quickly carbonates water and is simple to use.

    Smart purchase

    I drink a lot of seltzer, both flavored and unflavored. I decided to purchase this to save on the cost of seltzer as well as the hassle of returning empty bottles and cans. I wish I had bought it years ago. It's extremely easy to use and so convenient. I highly recommend this to any seltzer drinker. I tossed the sample syrups for soda so I can't speak as to their quality.

    Works as intended

    This machine does a good job carbonating water for making drinks, adds some zip to lemonade and other fruit drinks. The bottles have lasted us over 12 months and the kids use these all the time, I wouldn't think of this as a cost savings over buying name brand sodas but you get so many options it makes up for it. My only grip is the soda stream branded colas are horrible with the Splenda, best to get the naturally sweetened flavors, that kills any potential cost savings though.

    More user friendly than older model, LED helps with the right amount of carbonation for your drinks. Doesn't use much counter space and much easier to remove the carbonator cylinders not to mention they are well hidden. Love the machine and use it on a weekly basis

    Though counter space is available for this small sleek contraption, have my eye on the samsung model fridge - that said, this is a life saver for seltzer drinkers - c02 is more palpable than the cusineart model.

    Don't know why I didn't buy one sooner. It's cheap and easy to make soda in tons of flavors. My favorite is the Diet Orange.

    Perfect but flawed instructions

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Okay the instructions are flawed. First you want to use ice cold water. Then u hold the button down till you achieve your desired fizz. DO NOT RELEASE IT. using warm water will cause a mess and if you keep pressing it the carbonation will never go up.

    I personally think this is a horrible product.

    DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. It is literally a waste of money it’s a money grab item where it makes you spend a lot more on their side products needed for this product. It tastes so bad also. Our household has it for 3 days before we trashed it.

    Its a great item, but the taste is way different than the real coke/ pepsi products. Yes its expected to be different but at the same time the item leaves a very flimsy taste afterwards.

    bought the soda stream to save on plastic bottles.. Can't put enough co2 to get a decent fizz..unless you use super human strength to hold it tight you'll get water every where. Looking for soda in glass bottles now

    Best buy is great don't buy from the soda streamer

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Best buy has a great selection of other soda stream with even better features in than sodastream company does. I got my streamer from their online website(witch was shown a 30 percent saving and was only given 20 percent.), I will definitely only buy other brands, and only from best buy from now on.
