Soda Stream Thoughts

[Pookles]

I wanted one for a long time. Finally my hubby just bought it for me as a Christmas gift. I've used it like 4 time, but for some reason have a bunch of flavors. We buy cases of LaCroix and similar instead. I feel ashamed every time I see it. It lives next to the coffee maker so I see it every day.

DH decided the other night he'd like a Soda Stream...

I know very little about them, as I don't drink anything carbonated. So I'm wondering what anyone thinks of their's? Or maybe if someone knows a way to try one... or do some sort of taste test with flavored water from the store before committing? I have no idea if that'd be similar or not

I use mine every day. It's not cheaper than soda but I can make small amounts at a time with just a splash of the sugar-free syrup. Cartridges are expensive at first but about half the price with trade-in. My local Kroger's carries them and handles the trades at the customer service counter. I keep 3 in rotation and do a trade of the 2 empties when I install the last full one.

Note: the carbonation adds a bitter flavor to the water so regular water flavorings may not work for you.

It is the summer... Find a nice Saturday morning hit the local yard sales and I am sure you will find one real cheap....
