Aarke Carbonator lll with CO2 Cylinder, Sparkling & Carbonation Water Machine, Stainless Steel with PET BPA-Free Reusable Bottle Volume 1L/34 fl oz (Stainless Steel)

Had bought 2 soda streams in the past but after 1 year the first one stopped working and the second one stopped working after a couple of months. This is actually cheaper than soda stream because the soda streams break, and they will not repair or replace a broken machine. This is a much better machine and looks great on the kitchen counter. Upfront cost is higher than other machine but in the long run it’s worth it. 😄

Love it! I use it multiple times a day each C02 lasts a few weeks, then i need to replace it. it looks great on my counter. It is so easy to use. no plug or battery. It was a little expensive.

Love the design and it even works great. I also works with my old bottles from my soda stream machine

This unit is absolutely fantastic! I previously owned a similar device from a different manufacturer and used it for about a year. While I was satisfied with its performance, this new unit has completely blown me away. The carbonation quality is on another level—it far surpasses anything I could achieve with my previous unit. One unexpected delight is the sound it makes when reaching pressure—it reminds me of a child’s impression of a fart, and honestly, it makes me smile every time. I had been eyeing this unit for quite a while, and I'm so glad I finally made the switch. The all-metal construction is a huge upgrade compared to the plastic of my old unit. The solid feel of the metal not only adds to its durability but also, I believe, enhances its overall performance. ### Rating Breakdown: - **Taste:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – The enhanced carbonation levels significantly improve the experience. - **Ease of Cleaning:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – The metal body makes it easy to wipe down before storage. - **Carbonation Capacity:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – This unit delivers higher carbonation levels while using less gas. - **Quality:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – The metal construction feels sturdy and built to last. - **Size:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – Like my previous unit, this one is quite tall and requires ample storage space. If there were one design improvement I’d suggest, it would be to allow the lever arm to fold down, reducing the required top clearance for storage. - **Weight:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – While heavier than plastic models, it’s by no means excessively heavy. Overall, this unit is a game-changer. If you're serious about carbonation, this is the one to get!

This is a well built, sturdy piece. We use it multiple times daily. Refills come for the cartridge come quickly. We have saved money and recycling time with this. We love it.
