Saving me heaps of time and money
I bought a soda stream "Revolution" model, thinking that the 4 different levels of carbonation would be a bit of a gimmick. To my surprise I actually do use them. The lowest setting for carbonation makes nice soda water and the heavier ones make nice "Extra fizzy" drinks for the kids. This model has an LED display which shows how much gas is left (a handy feature, although this means that this particular model needs to be connected to a power outlet in order to work). It also has what they call a snap-lock mechanism to insert the bottles - much...Read more
less fiddly than the screw in models (although I still have had the odd water explosion from not inserting the bottle all the way in properly, but not a problem to clean it up). This model also takes with 40L or100L gas bottles. I find the syrups very suite for my taste, so I only use 1/3 or a cap (the recommended dose is 1 full cap) per bottle, and I find that they last quite a long time this way. Their syrups retail for about $7.50 a bottle (although you can add ANY cordial or flavours you like which can be a lot cheaper than the Soda Stream syrups), and a gas bottle can be about $60 for 40L and $80 for 100L but you get about half those amounts refunded when you swap the cylinder. I use mine every single day for several litres of soda water and the 40L lasted almost all summer. I then took a 100L gas cylinder and although I've had it about 3 months it isn't even 1/4 used yet. Not having to buy and carry the soft drink bottles from the shops is a Godsend, and because you use the Soda stream bottles with the system, there's no recyclable PET bottles to worry about (in fact you can only use the soda stream bottles in the machine. If you want to make bottle after bottle of soda you either have to buy more of the Soda Stream bottles which are NOT dishwasher safe, or just decanter the soda you make into another bottle - which is what I do for the kids). Having had the Soda Stream for about 6 months now and I am so happy with it. Ease of use. No more carrying heavy soft drink bottles from the shops. Convenience. I'm being picky but the "Revolution" model only comes in black, and needs a power outlet to work the lcd screenSimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Love soda streem, but my advice is don't buy it. You cant find refills for the canisters. Service is shocking you go forweeks without gas as they don't supply shops with them. The canisters are expensive. the stores selling Sodastreem should advice people no rifills . And last you will not get 60liters out of one canister as it claims.

Questions & Answers
Josie Pasked
I purchased Soda stream for the first time xmas 2022 and love it. However I purchased our first replacement cylinder on Monday 10/2/2020 from Woolworths and the water tastes horrible, metallic like. I take sodastream to work everyday with no flavouring. I thought it may have been a dirty Bottle but they are cleaned after every use. This morning I make a fresh bottle and the taste has not changed, still tastes metallic and not right. I removed the cylinder and reinstalled with no difference. Can I take the bottle back to Woolworths and have it replaced? The bottle has 27 on the bottom. Not sure if that is significant. I look forward to your reply

Hi Derek, thanks for getting in contact. We are sorry to hear that you are having this experience. A common question with our Sparkling Water Maker is that it isn’t gassing or not gassing sufficiently, 98% of the time this is due to the cylinder not being in tight enough. You would be surprised just how much of a difference the smallest bit of movement can make!
Can you please try the below troubleshooting:
Please check the weight of your cylinder:
Full 60L approx. 1.1kg
Empty 60L approx. 750g
Please try TIGHTENING the cylinder as much as you possibly can, to the point where it will not turn even a millimetre more. If you use a tea towel or a silicone mat, this will help you to get extra grip on the cylinder & a tighter fit. We cannot stress enough the importance of this. You won't break your sparkling water maker by doing this, so please don't worry about that!
Once you have completed the above troubleshooting please let us know the outcome so that we can assist you further if needed.

The water from my new sodastream comes out flat

HI Dee,
Check the canister is done up very tight if it's a new one, if old, you might be out of gas. The canister needs to be super tight by hand so it doesn't leak.
Hope this helps.
