sodastreamSpirit Sparkling Water Maker - Red [Amazon Exclusive]

Used to have a Sodastream many years ago, and hoped having one again would encourage me to drink more water (unfortunately I don’t like still water), and less coffee. And it did, especially as the summer of 2022 was long and hot here in the UK. I did purchase an additional, smaller bottle, since there is normally only me to cater for, and that was a good decision too. Over winter I confess I have rarely used the machine, preferring hot drinks, but it will soon be active every day, adding that joyful FIZZ to my daily life!

Healthier and lasts longer than cans of fizzy.The drinks have a higher water to syrup concentration than cans, so you end up drinking more water, yet the flavour is still excellent.Makes 1L at a time, so you can carry round the same as 3 cans.A six pack of flavour bottles will last a nice amount of time.

This was bought as a replacement for an identical model used by my handicapped son. The previous Spirit machine started leaking, probably due to wear. Fundamental problem with Sodastream machines, and this is the case with the Spirit especially, is that Sodastream continuously 'improves' their machines... Regretfully these 'improvements' often (mostly) seem to be aimed at making other parts of the system, that you may have bought, (carbonating bottles, gas bottles), obsolete. My son has primarily drunk soda water for many years now and we go through a cycle of machine/accessories replacement, not due to failure but due to forced 'upgrades', every few years. That said, for the amount of soda water consumed by my household, Soodastream is the most economical option by a long way... But: Buyer Beware.

Excellent quality and service my grand children love it so easy they make the drinks themselves

I had previously written poor review regarding SodaStream.I had recently realized my errors after my wife pointed out I had been filling the water above the recommended levels which was causing the spill and subsequently wasn't letting me carbonate whole bottle of water. I added exact 7 pump at the right level and now the carbonated water taste like "commercial sparkling water". Since this is a live discovery, I ran upstairs to my study room to edit my review.I was very angry about this purchase before but now I am happy. Changing the previously given 2 stars to 4 stars. I have to continuously buy the gas which is not cheap that is why I am not giving 5*.

Fine

Easy to use

We have a house of six adults. So this is use quite a lot. Unfortunately it only lasted six weeks then kept on leaking air. Contacted SodaStream directly done a video with them and informative us it was faulty. SodaStream have sent out a replacement some deducting one star because of this overall it’s a good machine.
