I love it! for my opinion

Reading some of the reviews, I was a little hesitant, but I just wish I would have bought it sooner! I had wanted a soda stream for a while, but I really did not like the look or design. Then I saw the Aarke which has a super slick design but it was way too expensive ($250). Then I found this machine and it had the look of the Aarke at a much lower price point. I got my machine yesterday, so I can't yet speak about how it will hold up, but it was perfect. Some people wrote that the machine is…

Pros
  • Everyone needs one. Still experiencing.
Cons
  • The machine takes up counter space

Looks great and works amazingly well!

I’m incredibly happy with this carbonate kit!It was easy to put together, and it looks nicer than many of the other options out there.The bottles are quite tall, but they fit nicely on their sides in the refrigerator.It’s fast, and you can easily get a serious amount of bubbles into whatever you’re carbonating.I’ve only had it for 2 days so far, so I can’t speak to the longevity and quality over time. However, so far everything is working flawlessly.Recommended 💯!

Pros
  • I am in love with my new gadget!!! Best Christmas gift, ever!!!
Cons
  • The carbonation can be inconsistent

Don’t buy it for my opinion

Update to my original review…If you don’t plan on drinking the ENTIRE container yourself right away or serving it to guests… don’t buy this. The water goes flat with 5 minutes of opening.I don’t know how it works yet because I won’t get the CO2 until Thursday. I was hoping the bottles would be a good size for travel… in a purse, briefcase or in hand. They are enormous! I carry a small backpack and it won’t even fit in it. I enclosed the picture for reference. That is a 28 ounce all- purpose…

Pros
  • Love it. Much easier to use than soda stream
Cons
  • The carbonation varies depending on the type of drink

Beats sodastream in every way

Very easy to use and substantially higher quality than the sodastream. With this device you can carbonate any beverage! Have tried with water, tea, lemonade, and milk. Do not recommend the milk lol. Though the price is a tad steep it is more efficient on co2 than soda stream, as this takes a total of 4 seconds to make a drink very carbonated, as the sodastream took 12 seconds for the same effect. Though pricy for plastic, the magnetic base is neat and the bottles are kinda space agey and…

Pros
  • With a wide range of customizable options, the FIZZpod is perfect for those who want complete control over the taste and carbonation of their drinks
Cons
  • The machine may not work well with certain types of flavorings

Alkaline water with bubbles

This product is easy to use. You can spend a fortune at a wholesale club buying carbonated water. And you can carbonate your own with this. My system adds alkaline to my water and now it's carbonated. I add a tablespoon of cranberry juice and it almost tastes like a cocktail.

Pros
  • With a sleek, modern design, the FIZZpod is perfect for those who want to add a touch of sophistication to their kitchen
Cons
  • The machine may not carbonate drinks evenly

The bottles are way too tall

Works just like the regular soda stream, takes the same canisters but the bottles are crazy tall. They don’t fit anywhere in our fridge unless we lay them down on the side. We decided to return it and stick with our regular soda stream. It is cool that you can carbonate anything we had fun trying juice but beyond that it’s pretty much useless.

Pros
  • We've been infusing water and then bubbling it! We love ours and reverb got one for my dad!!
Cons
  • It's not portable

Sleek but flawed good for me

Received thi in January of this year. Now, 4 months later, the carbonate cap started leaking like crazy. When it was working, it’s a great machine. Sleeker the the Soda Stream.

Pros
  • With a variety of settings and options, the FIZZpod is perfect for those who want to experiment with different flavors and ingredients
Cons
  • The machine may not be suitable for people with certain dietary restrictions

Nice look on the counter top

I had an issue with the bottles not holding carbonation but the company was responsive and quick to replace the malfunctioning bottles. I would recommend this to anyone who likes carbonated beverages.

Pros
  • The FIZZpod comes with a comprehensive user manual that makes it easy to get started quickly
Cons
  • The machine may not produce enough carbonation for some people's taste

Love the size, works great under my cabinets.

Love the size on this, fits in a tight space. Works easy, love the carbonation. And it’s portable. I can take it to the vacation home with my groceries no problem. (We drive-no flying with the carbonation cartridges). I bought the soda stream cartridges and they fit fine. The grandkids and I are loving adding flavors to our water.

Pros
  • Did not contain the carbon which was supposed to be included. Disappointment
Cons
  • The carbonation doesn't always last long

Awesome machine on my review.

I thought it was broken because they provided an extra rubber washer for it .My brilliant husband discovered they put two in it located in the picture I submitted. He plucked the extra rubber washer out and PRESTO IT WORKS!

Pros
  • With a powerful CO2 injection system, the FIZZpod produces sparkling drinks quickly and easily
Cons
  • The machine can be difficult to operate for people with hearing impairments

Sleek and Safe in my review

I love this thing, the bronze is sleek and sexy and most of all it’s safe to use as the top to carbonate the fluid has some kind of pressure release unlike the soda stream which can blow up in your face. I am very happy with this purchase and so glad I can enjoy a fizzy drink again without the danger of over pressurizing my bottle.

Pros
  • FIZZpod is a versatile appliance that can be used to make sparkling water, soda, and even cocktails
Cons
  • The cartridges need to be disposed of properly

Looks good and makes great soda water!

The trick with this is to hold down the top until you hear the "hiss" of air escaping. Then stop immediately. You'll have more bubbles then the big brand. It's also super thin and fits in a spot in our kitchen we didn't expect anything to ever fill :-)

Pros
  • The FIZZpod is designed with convenience in mind, making it perfect for those with busy lives
Cons
  • The machine may not be able to handle large volumes of drinks

Don't Spend More: my feedback

I looked at lot of brands and models that cost more but have a drawback. The injector cap is separate on this model, not built into the case. This way you can clean it, and you can use it for all sorts of liquids besides water. I use it half a dozen times a day and could do it in my sleep by the second day. These soda makers are simple devices with no electronics and no electrical plug. No reason they should cost a lot. This one does more than other brands that cost twice as much.

Pros
  • With a powerful CO2 injection system, the FIZZpod produces perfect carbonation every time
Cons
  • The machine may not work well with drinks that have pulp or solids

1st the size of the container means that you will waste it. It is too big for a large glass. 2) when I told them it had stopped working, they told me to buy another part. I do not plan to reinvest in a system that just stops working that quickly. I will take it as a loss and a lesson learned.

Pros
  • This soda maker is compatible with a wide variety of CO2 canisters, letting you choose the one that works best for your needs
Cons
  • The CO2 cartridges are environmentally unfriendly

Beware, Interior pin is plastic junk

We bought this machine 8 weeks ago. Looks like a cool designSkinny and tall, will fit in tight place if it's highHowever, BUYER BEWARE! The Internal Pin mechanism for the fizz pod that has to depress the CO2 cannister to get air to come out is made of a teeny piece of plastic! Not steel. There is no way to have known this before buying.We bought a CO2 cannister that was overfilled (not our fault, it just happens with some suppliers) so the steel pin on the cannister was really firm to depress…

Pros
  • The FIZZpod allows you to customize the carbonation level of your drinks, giving you complete control over the taste
Cons
  • The machine can be costly to repair

Really cool invention for a very reasonable price!

I tried making sparkling lots of liquids and while not everything taste better after the procedure, alot of things do. Being able to return your flat coke to the original condition is s huge plus to me! :-D

Pros
  • Unlike traditional soda makers, the FIZZpod allows you to use any flavorings or ingredients you want, opening up a whole world of possibilities for experimentation
Cons
  • The machine can be expensive to maintain

Better than Sodasream

Has good carbonation and easy to use. Wish the tall bottles were able to go in the dishwasher. I like how you can carbonate with juices/syrups/fruit already mixed in. CO2 exchange program is too expensive though.

Pros
  • The FIZZpod is incredibly easy to clean and maintain, so you can always enjoy sparkling drinks without worrying about hard-to-remove residue
Cons
  • The machine may not be worth the investment

TREMENDOUS SAVINGS in my review

I use this every day! A canister of air lasts me about a month with an average of two bottles a day. Overall, if you calculate, it's quite the savings. The fun part is we are so creative with it. We make carbonated espresso, fruit infused waters, powdered drinks, and even use the concentrated drops that you find in the supermarket which are way more affordable than the suggested drops. It's so easy to use and equally easy to swap out the air. Best purchase ever.

Pros
  • 4.19 pounds
Cons
  • The machine can be hazardous if used improperly

Disappointment good for me

Requires you to research how to operate . Super easy to use.! not as easy to use as a soda stream . requires additional purchase to operate .

Pros
  • Super easy to use.
Cons
  • The cartridges are not always easy to find

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nice but not worth the price

While the device works great, I would hardly view this as worth $99 dollars. When I purchased mine I assumed that it would at least include a carbonation cartridge however it’s literally the plastic device and three bottles, it’s all plastic and has no electronic devices so I don’t understand why it’s so expensive. The Soda Stream is the same price and comes with a cartridge, so should have went with that.

Pros
  • With a wide range of color options to choose from, the FIZZpod will fit perfectly with any kitchen decor
Cons
  • The machine can be confusing for people with cognitive impairments
