SodaStream Crystal 2.0 soda maker with CO2 cylinder and 2x glass carafes, Titanium

Best !

Does what it says on the tin.... makes sparkling water quickly and easily. However it seems quite expensive for such a simple device. This is not high tech.Also mine always leaks a little bit. I don’t overfill the carafe but it still seems to bubble over a bit and leak out.In addition, the bottles only hold about 1/2L so one needs 2+, preferably 4, to always have cold water on hand.

I would give this product 5 stars but for the fact that all instructions, including details on how to register your product etc. were in German. The cost of this product is £162 and I would expect to receive it with ENGLISH instructions. It really is not good enough. However, the product is good, well-designed, and easy to use. It goes well with a modern kitchen and the carafes are eco-friendly and nice to look at.

Please read to the endI like that this unit does not require power and the bundle comes with glass bottles which not all units can take. Functionwise, yes it makes various levels of fizzy water so tick that box.The unit requires space above itself as the top elevates when you insert/remove the bottle which means it's unlikely to sit beneath your wall cupboard.Warning: IT IS NOT BLACK (please see photos taken in front of a true black Samsung fridge/freezer).The casing a plastic and dark charcoal in colour which means it is being misadvertised as black on all websites. Not a big deal to some but when the rest of your kitchen appliances are black, it does make a difference.Sodastream Customer Service eventually admit that it is not black - let's see how long it will take for the model description to be amended - and after some to-ing and fro-ing offered a refund or FoC exchange to either the Power, which even though it costs more, it is tethered to a power outlet and does nor use glass bottles. Or the Spirit black, which is a cheaper version and not the same functionality & I can be forgiven for wondering if the Spirit is truly black.Whilst I am happy with my fizz, I do feel disappointed with the appearance, and sadly SodaStream Customer Service have not done enough to make me a happy customer leaving a bitter taste.
