SodaStream Spirit Sparkling Water Maker Machine includes a 1 Litre Reusable BPA Free Water Bottle for Carbonating and 60 Litre CO2 Blue Gas Cylinder - Black

This wee Gadget is absolutely brilliant. After reading some ok reviews by some people regarding this soda stream i have come to the conclusion that those people must be THICK. This little gizmo is so simple to use Fill the bottle to the mark (for best results fill slightly over the line marked on the bottle). To Insert Gas cylinder remove back cover. Tear plastic covering off cylinder then unscrew white plastic top from cylinder. Screw the cylinder up into unit and replace back cover. Insert water bottle up into front of soda stream no need to screw into place just push up then push bottle back into unit. Now this is where people may be getting it wrong. If you like your water really FIZZY press the Grey button the top for 5 two second bursts. Press firmly down don't be scared. You may hear gas escaping perfectly normal don't worry this means its working and you are pressing the button hard enough. Like i said before 5 times 2 second bursts makes perfect fizzy water. Should have bought one of these years ago. My wife loves it as well no more carrying heavy packs of fizzy water home from shopping. I must admit the instructions (Pictures only) may be vague but they are very self explanatory. Anyway very happy with this Soda stream GREAT Purchase. Thank you Amazon

It takes a bit of getting used to but once you've sussed it out it works like a dream.It's manual operation which for me is perfect as I didn't want another mains powered kitchen appliance which would add to the cost, especially with rising energy prices.Bear in mind that the 60l gas quote is based on 3 presses which is a pretty flat fizz, 4-5 presses works best so you'll get through the gas quicker than the estimated 60l to about 35-40l. I'm two weeks in and it's still going after making 1-2l a day.Can't say the flavours are very good but you can use any squash or cordial to add flavour once you've fizzed. Another top tip is to use a Brita filter to filter your tap water before you fizz, it just taste's better.I'm also amazed at how it's massively reduced my recycling waste, that alone makes it worth it in my mind.

Bought this yesterday as I drink a lot of sparkling water and became bothered by wasting so much plastic.It’s very easy to assemble. As some have said the back is quite flimsy but it holds together fine. My first attempt to fizz was hysterical I had water fountains going everywhere (the picture instructions aren’t the best) but I viewed a brilliant YouTube video and took her tips onboard. I realised I’d not pulled the tab forward before inserting the bottle which secures it in place. Rookie error.Since then I’ve had great success. Top tip was to let the water settle a bit after each blast of gas. I like it very fizzy so do 6 blasts. THEN LEAVE IT for a minute or so to settle before taking it out of the soda stream device. Perfect sparkling water that maintains its fizz.Also bought two empty bottles as part of the deal which I highly recommend as you can have them chilling in the fridge. I’m delighted with it. Wish I’d bought one sooner.

I think this is brilliant! Easy to use, yes expensive but in the long run stops buying plastic bottles so saves money an less plastic waste!Also when i used it, it does taste exactly like the water you buy from the shop so im converted! Also the canisters are refillable you just have to find a shop that refills them... i think argos do but i need to find out for sure... in the long run you save money though as this is going to be used alot!Seriously invest in it if you like sparkling water its so easy to use! Everything clips in or screws in really easy to... by this i mean the cannister and water bottle you put in it to make the water fizzy 😊

I love my soda stream maker, I need to give it a few more presses than it recommends on the button, but a cylinder of gas still lasts a month and I probably make about 1.5 litres of sparking water a day. The flavour bottles I bought were lemonade and diet cola from Lakeland as that was the only place I could find them and they have lasted well as well, but the best is just to put in a slice of fresh lemon and that works a treat really bubbly and refreshing and because you can get 0.5l bottles it means that my sparkling water is always sparkling as I just make it as and when I want to drink it, so there's no waste and no plastic bottles. You can even subscribe to get gas bottles delivered and returned and so reduce your costs through the year. Very pleased with this as a way to cut down on our plastic bottle useage, our recycling bin is now taking weeks to fill.

Love, love, love it!Makes excellent sparkly water. I press the button 5 times, in quick succession. The water remains fizzy for a good while...even overnight if left in the bottle.If you want more or less fizzy, then playing around with the fizz-button will get you your perfect bubble.Make sure you don’t fill the bottle above the line otherwise you’ll get water everywhere.I use my Sodastream on average twice a day and the cyclinder has lasted me seven weeks.When I registered it with Sodastream I got a replacement cyclinder for £12, with £10 refund when I return the empty one!Easy to replace using Click and Collect, so no Post Office hassles. I am sure there are other places to replace them, but this is the easiest for me.I really am pleased with it and the fact I’m using less plastic than with bottles is a good feelings. Small actions make a difference.Aaaanyway, I really recommend it.Oh! I haven’t used syrups, but have used Ribena which is delish!

I do not usually provide reviews but have decided to in this instance because of the hugely variable reviews I read many of which were downright dismissive of the product and inclined to put me off purchasing it.i did, and am perefectly happy with it. I do not have to wade through litres of plastic bottles which is a big plus. I have not used SodaStream flavours so have not rated these. When i want flavour I use cordials which work fine. In a high volume (big family) environment I accept that continuous delivery may be an issue.I can only assume that negative reviews by other parties are because they have difficulties adhering to the instrucions given. I use three shots per bottle which provides me with adequate fizz even when this is not consumed straight away. Glad I purchased!

The unit initially worked well. It's simple enough to install a gas bottle and the water bottle used for gassing just clips into place. Pressing the gas button gives a good blast of gass but right from the start there was a little bit of water leakage from the machine. Nothing major, and the instructions did explain that a little bit of leakage was to be expected.It's been working reasonably well and giving nicely gassed water, but suddenly and for no apparent reason it's now completely stopped gassing the water. It would appear that the bottle isn't sealing into the machine. I can't tell if it's the grippers that clamp the next of the bottle or the rubber washer. Either way - for a £70 spend you'd expect to get more than just a few months out of the product.We had purchased a gas replacement subscription. But I'm not going to buy another machine, so unless I can get it replaced or repaired by either Amazon or Sodastream, then I'll be cancelling the gass subscription and giving it up as a bad job.Shame, because so far we must have saved close to a hundred plastic bottles that we would have purchased from the supermarket.UPDATE: Amazon were kind enough to replace the item. The new one, although apparently the same, is definitely behaving differently. Maybe our first unit was not working properly all along, or maybe Sodastream have fixed something.The new unit grips the neck of the bottle properly, as the original one used to do, but I've noticed that when filling there is a much stronger burst of gas delivered and much less leaking of gas. Also, if one presses and holds the gas injector button, after a few seconds there seems to be a safety release happening. What sounds like a valve seems to be opening to release the excess gas. Maybe this is new. Maybe it's just the new unit's seal allowing a more controlled escape and the unit just sounds differently. Obviously I don't do this a lot, but did it just to check the new unit's behaviour.So far, the new unit seems to be working much better than the original ever did. Time will tell. I've upgraded the review to three stars on the basis of giving Sodastream a second change.

Premetto che conoscevo questa marca di gasatori, ma non l’avemo mai provato perchè, piacendomi molto l’acqua in bottiglia naturale leggermente frizzante, ero molto scettico pensando che la mineralità risultasse, come dire, innaturale, artificiosa, ma qualche settimana fa, avendo avuto modo di testarlo a casa di amici, mi sono dovuto ricredere, e approfittando del prime day l’ho comprata ad un ottimo prezzo, e dopo qualche giorno di utilizzo confermo la sua validità.Il montaggio della bombola di anidride carbonica è semplicissimo e, dopo un paio di giorni di prove con differenti pressioni sull’erogatore, si riesce tranquillamente a trovare la gradazione desiderata. Io, personalmente, schiaccio un paio di volte in maniera breve per avere un’ acqua leggermente frizzante, e devo dire che non noto differenze con quella della bottiglia. Questa versione senza bisogno di corrente, poi, la trovo particolarmente comoda e pratica visto che è possibile metterla ovunque senza l’impiccio di ulteriori cavi in giro per casa. Il fatto che non ci siano, come in altre versioni del sodastream, più pulsanti per avere delle gasature preimpostate, lo trovo, a differenza di alcune recensioni, un pregio, visto che mi dà l’idea di poter avere ancora più sfumature di gasatura in base ai secondi in cui si tiene premuto il pulsantone in alto, tra l’altro molto comodo essendo bello grande, ma questa è una questione di gusti. Comunque sia, una volta presa la mano, non è difficile regolarsi.Esteticamente risulta molto carino e rifinito, anche se il materiale, in plastica, scricchiola un po’ quando lo si maneggia, ma niente di trascendentale, e l’inserimento e lo sganciamento delle bottiglie compatibili risulta comunque solido.E a proposito delle bottiglie (nella confezione ne troviamo una), anche loro sono esteticamente molto belle, e il materiale plastico di cui sono fatte è evidentemente di alta qualità, tanto che, quando l’ho viste dal mio amico, ad un primo impatto credevo fossero di vetro tanto sono rigide e limpide. Tra l’altro c’è un segnetto (a 840 ml) che ci dice fin dove riempirla per una perfetta gasatura, e il tappo a vite ermetico permette di tenerle anche coricate nel frigorifero, oltre che di mantenere la gasatura almeno per un giorno tranquillamente.Nulla posso dire per ora sulla durabilità della bombola di anidride carbonica da 80 lt, molto leggera, avendola solamente da una settimana, ma anche questo immagino dipenda dal grado di frizzantezza che si usa quotidianamente.Bisogna però dire una cosa, immagino che la bontà dell’acqua dipenda anche e soprattutto dal sapore dell’acqua di partenza, ecco perchè io ad esempio, abitando a Roma, dove l’acqua a un buon sapore ma è pesantissima per via del tanto calcare, l’ho unita in combo con una di quelle brocche filtranti che rendono l’acqua un po’ più leggera e gli danno un sapore migliore, ma questo evidentemente dipende dai gusti e dalla zona in cui si abita.Conclusioni: consigliatissimo. Al di là delle mie aspettative, e per ora non ho riscontrato difetti; l’acqua viene bene e non sembra artificiosa, proprio come quella in bottiglia, e finalmente in caso siamo anche un po’ più eco friendly, il che non guasta, avendo tolto di mezzo tutte quelle bottiglie di plastica nonché il peso delle casse e il doversi ricordare di comprarle; e anche se probabilmente un po’ sarà dovuto all’effetto novità, ci trovo anche più gusto e soddisfazione a farla da solo, alla gasatura desiderata al momento, in modo che si possa “personalizzare” la frizzantezza per i vari componenti della famiglia o gli amici quando vengono a cena.

Köpte den till frugan och hon är helnöjd, använder den dagligen.En stor fördel är att man slipper gänga på flaskan i maskinen.Snabb leveransRekommenderas!

Si vous en avez marre de transporter des packs d'eau gazeuse et de remplir vos poubelles des bouteilles vides qui finiront plus ou moins bien recyclées alors cette machine est pour vous ! Machine assez légère et peu encombrante qui produit de l'eau + ou - gazeuse très bonne (j'utilise de l'eau du robinet filtrée dans une carafe ) ,sans problème, en fonction des goûts de chacun . La bouteille livrée avec la machine a une contenance réelle de 80 cl d'eau . La mise en route de la machine est très intuitive, l'installation de la cartouche de gaz (capacité annoncée de 60 l d'eau) est très facile ainsi que celle de la bouteille , il suffit de suivre les "dessins" ...La cartouche de gaz est consignée ce qui fait que l'achat d'une nouvelle cartouche coûte entre 10 et 13€. Le prix de revient pour 1 L d'eau est donc très avantageux . Je n'ai pas encore essayé les "sirops" Sodastream mais votre sirop habituel mis directement dans le verre fera parfaitement l'affaire!En résumé , bon produit , écologique, économique, je recommande !

Después de usar el carbonatador SodaStream 1011711411 durante varias semanas, puedo decir que es un producto muy satisfactorio para quienes disfrutan del agua con gas. Su diseño compacto y moderno en negro encaja bien en cualquier cocina y es fácil de usar gracias a su mecanismo de bloqueo a presión para la botella. Lo que más me ha gustado es la posibilidad de ajustar el nivel de carbonatación a gusto personal, lo que permite obtener un agua con gas muy fresca y con burbujas bien definidas. Además, el hecho de que incluya una botella reutilizable ayuda a reducir el consumo de plástico y es una opción más ecológica y económica a largo plazo. La recarga del cilindro de CO2 es sencilla y dura bastante, lo que aporta comodidad y ahorro. Como puntos menos positivos, el precio inicial puede parecer algo elevado, pero se compensa con el ahorro en agua embotellada y la reducción de residuos. También es importante seguir bien las instrucciones para conseguir el punto óptimo de gas, ya que al principio puede requerir algo de práctica. Tips útiles: siempre usa agua fría para mejores resultados, no sobrepases la línea de llenado de la botella para evitar derrames, y presiona el botón con pausas cortas para controlar la intensidad del gas. En resumen, recomiendo este carbonatador para quienes quieran disfrutar de agua con gas de calidad en casa, con un aparato fiable, fácil de usar y respetuoso con el medio ambiente.

Ich habe das Modell "SodaStream Easy" als Weihnachtsgeschenk für meine Eltern gekauft, da ich mit dem "SodaStream Cool" bereits sehr zufrieden war.Der Wassersprudler sieht dank der schwarzen Kunststoffoberfläche sehr elegant aus und passt sich nahtlos in die Küche meiner Eltern ein und sieht nicht billig aus. Das Modell "Cool", mit seiner grün-weißen Aufmachung, wirkt dagegen etwas billiger und passt farblich nicht in jede Küche. Auch die Flasche macht einen deutlich eleganteren Eindruck als jene, welche beim "Cool" beilagen.Die "Einrichtung" und Verwendung ist idiotensicher: Rückblende abnehmen, CO2 Tank anschrauben, Blende wieder aufstecken, fertig. Etwas verwirrt war ich kurzzeitig bezüglich des eigentlichen Sprudelns, da man die Flaschen beim "Cool" einschrauben muss. Zuerst drehte ich einige Sekunden und wunderte mich, warum die Flasche nicht hielt. Statt einem Schraubmechanismus klemmt das "Easy" die Flaschen selber ein und zieht diese scheinbar durch den Druck fest.Also einfach die Flasche befüllen, einstecken, nach hinten Drücken und sprudeln. Dann wieder nach vorne ziehen und abnehmen. Verglichen mit dem "Cool" ist das nicht nur einfacher, sondern auch angenehmer.Man muss beim "Easy" auch weniger Stark auf den Knopf drücken. Ein leichtes Drücken reicht, um CO2 in das Wasser zu schießen, während man beim "Cool" deutlich mehr Kraft aufwenden muss.Nun aber zum wichtigsten Teil: Ist das Ergebnis auch gut? Kurz und knapp: Ja. Das gesprudelte Wasser steht gekauftem Wasser in nichts nach und schmeckt oft sogar besser. Wer will, kann das Wasser vorher noch durch einen Kalkfilter jagen, um es weicher zu machen.Der wohl größte Vorteil ist aber, dass man sich das permanente Kaufen, Schleppen und Zurückbringen von Pfandflaschen und Kästen sparen kann. Bei meinen Eltern sind die Selterskisten komplett verschwunden und auch die ständigen Gänge in den Keller sind Vergangenheit.Lohnt es sich finanziell? Gegenüber teuren "Markenwasser" auf jeden Fall. Gegenüber Wasser vom Discounter nicht unbedingt. Zudem hält der CO2 Tank genug für 60l, je nachdem wie stark man sprudelt. Diese kosten ca. 7-8 Euro pro Umtausch. Diese bekommt man aber praktisch überall (DM, Rossmann, EDAKA, REWE, etc.)Fazit: Mit dem SodaStream "Easy" macht man wenig falsch. Es sieht gut aus, lässt sich leicht bedienen, das Wasser kann mühelos mit gekauftem Wasser konkurrieren und es spart viel Arbeit und Mühe.
