I just got one of these for christmas and I love it – easy to use, fun for my 6 year old, adn yummy taste with less sugar, etc. I see everyone’s points about the lack of cost effectiveness and have to agree that there is no way you will save money using this product. However, as I think about the savings on bottles/cans/trucking/energy used to produce the plastic liters of soda that we usually buy, I can’t help but feel this is a better choice for the environment. Now I haven’t studied what it takes to produce these products so it might be a wash but somehow I feel like I’m doing something small to help our ruination of the planet. And I don’t mind teaching this to my very impressionable first grader either. She now tells me when I’m wasting – turn off the lights Mom, use that towel again Mom, don’t run the water that much while you are doing the dishes. It’s not all about money to me

aspartame is good but i think Xylitol is even better because it is natural and organic ”

Theses sodastream machines are absolutely awesome. I use mine all the time. I save so much time and money with this machine. It’s great, I’ve always wanted to make my own soda.

i read somewhere on the internet that long term consumption of Aspartame is not really good for the health. ;`*

Stavos is right about the claimed capacity of the canisters. I purchased a kit because I drink a ton of seltzer. The seltzer it produces is good and the convenience of not running to the store to return empties is great. But they only allow you to purchase the smaller “60 liter” canisters in the kit, so right away you can’t get the lowest production cost. And if you call customer service, they cannot explain the $.18 per liter cost they claim on their website. Worse yet, the “60 liter” canister only yielded 45 liters of seltzer (I tried three canisters) even using modest (and recommended) carbonation. Customer Service will not respond to my questions about the discrepancy in cost claims.
This could be an excellent product if the claims were accurate and you use alot of seltzer. But with the cost of the machine and replacement supplies, it takes alot of seltzer to start to see a savings and you will NEVER achieve the claimed costs.

Hi Julian,

Hmmm, frankly, if you look at the per Liter cost using this device it’s not for singles or families.

Apart from the high cost per Liter cost though, I don’t see a reason why it wouldn’t be just as usable by single people…I mean, it’s like saying a blender or food processor is only good for a family which isn’t the case.

This type of product is for a family, not for a single like me.
