Soda stream

10 replies

Hello, debating buying a soda stream as I like sparkling water but don't like the plastic bottle waste.

Does anyone have one? Any strong feelings either way or recommendations as to which one to get?

TIA

Following.
Also considering getting this for the same reason.
My household go through 3 bottles of sparkling water each week. It's too much plastic. Have tried glass bottles but it's expensive.

Yes, we have one.
Basic model, the gas canisters last ages, I use it for Soda Water and fuzzy water.
We were getting through wasteful amounts of bottled soda for short drinks. The big bottles went flat, small bottles or cans: too wasteful.

I have one for same reason - hate still water and plastic waste too awful.
I change the cannisters in argos or lakeland or robert dyas. that bit is a faff tho.

They’re amazing. We got ours for tonic. Got it years ago so can’t help with models but get one!

We have one for the same reason, husband was going through so many small bottles of water.

It's not as fizzy as bottled water, but decent enough. I got one that came with two canisters, so when the first ran out, i just swopped over and then i can replace the empty one at Argos at my leisure.

I wish they did flavourings though, not cola, just fruit as I'm not keen on plain water.

We got one a couple of months ago and it’s used daily. I love it. I don’t like still water and our tap water doesn’t taste very nice anyway, I love sparkling water but hated the fact that I was using so many plastic bottles.

We've got this one.

I got one for my birthday a couple of weeks ago and it's brilliant. I was buying 4-8 2l bottles of fizzy water a week, now I just make it as I need it, and no plastic waste!

I bought my son in law one for Christmas. Genesis I think it was called, the black one. Says it's very good.
