- OmniFizz Sparkling Water Maker & Soda Streaming Machine | Carbonates Any Drink | VALUE KIT | Includes Two 60L CO2 Cartridges + One BPA-Free Bottle (Arctic Blue)

The rate of bottled carbonated water my family goes through and my own Dr Pepper Zero habit, I decided to buy a carbonator. I read an article on CNET rating the different carbonators. Sodastream seems like the go to but expensive. I wasn't aware that there were other brands. The Drinkmate met all of my criteria. Price being the biggest factor, it's rating, and the fact that it's described as being able to carbonate anything. The other descriptions never mention this. Drinkmate offers different bundles. The most inexpensive one is very basic. It comes with a bottle but no carbonation canisters. Drinkmate sells other bundles that include canisters. I got the medium priced bundle with 2 large canisters. The price of buying canisters separately is more expensive than what I payed for this bundle. However Drinkwell sends a coupon and prepaid return label to return used canisters and Amazon and Target also have canister trade in programs. As my pics shows, set up is easy. The directions tell you to wash out the bottle and fizz infuser before first use. These aren't dishwasher safe and I used a pink silicone bottle washer, also purchased on Amazon, to easily wash the bottle. On the sides of the fizz infuser are little black tracks. This is to slide into and remove from the infuser adapter. When opening the back before installing the canister, there's a black cap that comes out and disposable. The canister also has a removable disposable black cap and the gold top is screwed into the back of the carbonator. It's a little difficult to screw into and takes a little effort before it attaches. I bought sodastream's version of Diet Dr Pepper brand of syrup Diet Dr Pete, and couldn't be more satisfied. To me it tastes better than the original. I also put some lemon juice, and crystal light into bottles to carbonate and my family loved it. I hate flat soda but 2 hours after making, my soda's still well carbonated. I feel this will more than pay for itself. I'll update if any problems.

So far I'm still satisfied with this DrinkMate. Setup was simple, it feels sturdy, well made with a sleek design that fits nicely on the countertop without taking up too much space. What I really like is that it can carbonate more than just water. It's compatible with juices and other beverages including wine. Carbonation levels are easy to control, so far no leaks and the drinks come out crisp and refreshing every time. It’s quick to use, easy to clean, and has helped cut down on store-bought sparkling drinks. Overall, it’s a convenient and worthwhile addition to the kitchen. I would definitely recommend it.

After being underwhelmed by the leading company in this group, I read reviews carefully and decided to try Drinkmate. 1-It takes me two presses to reach maximum fizz, 2-the fizz lasts for days in the fridge with their lid, 3-the release valves are easy to use, 4-it works with other canisters, 5-it uses no electricity so perfect for glamping trips, thus I would highly recommend. I watched the 2 minute video which explained everything perfectly and I have not had any issues! I did buy an extra bottle and most importantly the patented lid. I pressurize and refrigerate then use for days.

...but I never did until now. Avoid the Soda Stream syrups unless you want a diet soda (for that, the syrups are pretty good but Im not a fan). Look for soda syrup made from cane sugar if you want to replace your regular store-bought soda options. 4 stars because there is little practice involved to get the carbonation and flavor right, and because its hard to achieve *extreme* carbonation in something that is really sweet... but this system works quite well and we aren't disappointed. I especially like to make half strength (approx) soda to reduce calorie intake and the cane sugar based syrups dilute nicely with this approach. Cost of use is probably half the cost of store bought soda (considering syrup consumption only, I havent been able to factor in the CO2 yet). We would buy this again.

I’ve been researching a seltzer maker for months. I chose Drinkmate because it didn’t need any power or charging, it would be freestanding on the counter and it can fizz more than just water. . It’s easy to use and works like a charm. The only downside is that the body is plastic and I’m concerned if it were to fall over it might crack. So be careful and don’t let the kiddos use without supervision because it’s a costly purchase. Manufacturer should take note and use better quality durable material. Worth the price. Update: had this 5 weeks and don’t know how I lived without this terrific product! Going get one for my office! UPDATE. THIS PRODUCT STILL GOING STRONG AND I’M LOVING IT. 🥰🥰

I like the simplicity. the unit runs on CO2 and nothing else - no electric needed. You can also carbonate anything you want. So far I've only done water but I'm sure I will experiment soon. Refrigerate the water before carbonating, then carbonate, let it sit pressurized in the fridge until you want to use it (at least a half hour) and without releasing the pressure, carbonate again. The single-pass carbonation is a bit weak for me but do the 2-pass and it is just as strong if not stronger than store-bought. I'd also recommend buying the half-liter bottles. For us the full liter was too much and just wasted CO2. I bought the unit with 2 CO2 cylinders included which I think is perfect. Do yourself a favor and buy one of the adapters here that lets you fill from a standard 5 pound CO2 cannister. You can get the 5 pound cannisters at most liquor stores for about twenty bucks plus a deposit and you can refill the drink mate cannisters over 5 times with it. that's about four bucks a refill compared to the $15 plus shipping that drink mate will charge you. All in all a good unit that I would buy again.

So far, so good. I really like the fact that I can do beverages other than water. It’s a little taller than I expected, but it doesn’t take up a lot of counter space, which is nice. I also like the fact that no electricity is needed for operation, as that increases the places I can store it.

Update 2023: best purchase ever! I use this far more than anticipated mostly for water and tea but also fizzy iced lattes, fizzy lemonade, I could go on. I’m looking forward to summer so I can start fizzing my drinks. My first cartridge is still going. I drink a lot of water. It gets boring. I hate buying small bottles of fizzy water and the big ones lose their fizz before I can finish them. Plus I hate having bottles pile up. I’ve had my eye one one of these carbonators for awhile and finally took the plunge. This one got good reviews, has free returns for used canisters and has the added bonus of being able to carbonate beverages other than water without voiding the warranty. Mostly though, I use it for water and mix in a little juice or tea for a nice refreshing beverage. Fizzy hibiscus tea is the best.

If you are a big drinker of carbonated waters. This machine is a game changer, it is so simple and easy to use. Just a few spurts of cO2 and voila you have some great sparkling water, works great with beer, giving you that extra foam and great pours all the time.

Reliable machine for making fizzy drinks. The plastic bottles seem quite sturdy; the only problem is they aren't dishwasher-safe. Easy to use - just attach the bottle properly and press the button. It looks decent as well!

I really liked it. It carbonates any drink very well.

Great machine. Make any drink sparkling with a touch. Easy to use.

Oh man, where do I begin? If I tell you that this contraption has changed the way I approach H2O, I wouldn't be exaggerating. Seriously, I simply can't stand drinking the recommended 8 glasses a day. But add a bit of carbonation to the mix, and voila, I am off to 900 ml of pure bliss. And the flavors are simply amazing. It may look complicated, but this is a 30-second procedure once you get the hang of it. It's just so simple. Best of all, I have completely stopped buying soda. It's just completely changed my perspective on water. The seller is very responsive and provides excellent customer service. Highly recommended. Word of caution: If you love Cherry Cola, then the cherry flavor isn't for you. It's more like carbonated cough syrup. But I like it!
