    i got one in the sales but haven't used it much

    The only reason is I can't find any syrups that don't contain artificial sweeteners :mad: I don't buy anything with artificial sweeteners any soda that I get is always the full sugar version, there is not the option to use a soda stream for this :( I just wish I had looked into it better before purchase.

    Remember having one years back and the one thing that sticks in my mind is that they are nowhere near as fizzy as bought soda

    If you have children in the house then you might want to ask yourself the question 'Will a Soda Stream increase their intake of sugars?' Just a thought

    They're as fizzy as you make them.

    Have you considered buying the supermarket's own brand very cheap fizzy water (normally under 40p/litre) and adding cordial?


    This is what I was about to suggest value sparkling water is usually 17/18p for 2 litres.
  • They are great party piece or just a bit of fun for youngsters but really arnt that practical if you're purchasing one for the fact to make carbonated beverages.
