Philips Sparkling Water Maker, Soda Streaming Machine with Quick Twist Bottle, 1L BPA free PET Carbonating Bottle, Soda Maker Compatible with 60L CO2 Carbonator (NOT Included), ADD4902WHOQ/37

I'm impressed with the minimalist design and ease of use of this soda maker. I've had SodaStream machines and this one works just as well. My model came with metal finishings which I appreciate over the full plastic models - just aesthetics, I doubt any difference in functionality. Note this soda maker only fits the original SodaStream gas cylinders (blue), not the newer cylinders (pink). It also doesn't fit SodaStream bottles, only Philips brand ones. However this isn't a bad thing - Philips ones are better quality, made from thicker plastic with metal casings and price comparable to SodaStream ones.

Excelente producto. Una recomendación: debería tener en la parte superior donde se oprime para la salida del gas carbonico, el sentido de giro de la entrada y salida de la botella

The ease of use is great. No plug in, no battery, you can essentially use this anywhere.We ordered two replacement bottles that were NOT a fit for this product. Had to return and order based on model number.I’ve had this for two months and now all the sudden my bottles will no longer screw in. Trying to troubleshoot with manufacturer on this.The carbonation dies not seem to last overnight, despite being sealed and refrigerated.But when it did work, I love the results. Now I want to try mineral water vs. my normal fridge water.Frustrating it’s currently not working because I can’t twist in the water bottle.

It worked as advertised for the first 10 days before it became impossible to twist the bottles in place to use it. When it worked it was ok. The intent was to stop buying carbonated water at Trader Joe’s but it doesn’t seem capable of achieving that level of carbonation. If Philips can troubleshoot the problem or replace the unit the rating will change.Edit: The replacement failed in the same way in a similar amount of time. While Phillips’ customer service was excellent in replacing a defective product, the replacement being defective tells me to find another product. Returned instead of a replacement this time.

So far, I have bought two soda streams machines and the the Aarke, the Philips is my favorite. Aarke broke down after one year of use, after back and forth emails, they wanted me to send it to them, I have no time for that, I bought the Philips 2 years ago, it became my favorite, this one is a gift to a friend.

If you want more bubbles, this beats sodastreamJust note that if you want to use a large CO2 tank, you can't connect a tank adapter to it without cutting into it.

Love it!!

This machine seems to use a refill canister very very quickly. With my older machine I could press it and hold for a count of 8 and the canister lasted for a long time, but this machine seems to go through the gas in 2 weeks or less. It should last a lot longer I think. Anyone else seem to notice this?
