 Carbonation is rather good... August 16, 2006
30 out of 30 found this review helpful
I read some other reviews here and on other sites and it seemed that the biggest problem this product has is that the water is not as carbonated as store bought water.
The first time I tried this product it seemed the other reviews were correct. The water was just barely carbonated and I was rather disappointed with it. However, I found that once you pressurize the bottle; letting it sit in the refridgerator for a while will really carbonate it up. To me it now "seems" just as good as store bought carbonated water or at least very close.
Probably the only complaint I now have about it is that I empty the bottle too quickly and I have to wait a while for another bottle to be ready. Besides that it works very well and I am happy with it.

This product doesn't seem to carbonate to the level of regular soda water from the store. I drink carbonated water all the time and what comes out of this tastes a little flat.
The product also seems cheaply made. The first time I tried it, all the CO2 blew out the spout because the handle sits at a point where the valve is slightly open. I have to pull up on the handle when I insert the charger to get it to work.
Great use for a lifetime! May 11, 2006

This is identical to the soda siphon I've owned since 1975 and it still works beautifully. The kids got juice fizzed up with no sodium instead of soda pop. We make mojitos, spritzers, etc. and we're never out of soda. Leftover soda keeps well. Recharging is a breeze, though the cost of chargers has gone up. I buy them online--still much cheaper than buying bottles of soda that go flat.

Some may wonder why bother when seltzer water comes in bottles.
1. Makes excellent, high-quality carbonated water. For a TRUE diet soda without chemicals, or add it to cocktails.
2. It's fun and easy to make. Just screw in the chargers and shake.
3. Great design. A conversation piece. Nostalgic and Retro. Just like the bars in the old movies.
4. Economical. Less than 70 cents per soda charger for one liter.
5. Great gift idea.
Drawbacks:
1. The CO2 soda charges can be tough to find. Amazon had them, then they didn't. They may again. Buy in bulk.
2. The one liter dispenses quickly

It's great making soda water for drinks the way they did in the old B&W movies. Works fine. Lot's of fun with guests.
