Drinkmate OmniFizz Sparkling Water and Soda Maker, Carbonates Any Drink, Bubble Up Bundle - Includes Two 60L CO2 Cylinders, One Carbonation Bottle, and Fizz Infuser (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.

I am very impressed with this carbonation device! It has been used to make sparkling water (flavored and non-flavored), sparkling cold coffee, cola, root beer and best of all, sparkling white wine. Best results are obtained with liquid that has been chilled overnight in the fridge. This unit has been making up to three 750ml bottles of sparkling beverages per day for the last three weeks and the first full-size CO2 canister is still going strong. The DrinkMate is super easy to use and because it is not powered by electricity, it can be moved anywhere. Take it out to the back yard, take it camping, use it on day trips, whatever! A must for anyone tired of lugging around cartons of seltzer water cans or bottles from the store or for someone that wants to have fun carbonating lots of different beverages.

it works great… nice and compact no electrical cords makes two drinks

The machine itself is sleek and doesn't use a lot of space. I am lucky that I have a spot that doesn't have a upper cabinet because it is too tall to fit under any of my upper cabinets. So that is one drawback, and the reason for not giving 5 stars.I am please with the ease of use and proformance. Using daily for a couple weeks now and enjoying my bubble drinks!

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.

Super gift! Easy to use, made of high quality materials. We love it!

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. 🥰🥰

My son comes home one day and says we should get another soda stream so he can make carbonated coconut water. So I start looking into a slew of carbonators only to find out that they all say for water only. You could probably do it anyway, but the soda stream bottles expire so they don’t eventually explode from the pressure so…yeah.My daughters like to carbonate apple juice. It’s quite convenient to just carbonate the mix you have rather than try to figure out how to add things in later without it being too diluted or bubbling over. You can even carbonate alcoholic beverages should you wish.Long story short, I feel like the versatility overcomes the price difference.
