aarke Carbonator lll with CO2 Cylinder, Sparkling & Carbonation Water Machine, Stainless Steel with PET BPA-Free Reusable Bottle Volume 800 mL (Gold)

On the expensive side but works perfectly, is well made, and looks very nice on the kitchen counter. Used daily and now from an eco perspective am eliminating almost a case of aluminum cans a month. I use the cold filtered water from my refrigerator and in less than 2 minutes have a quart of cold sparkling water.

All I can say is that this brand is the BEST. First off, it looks like a statement piece, like a high end appliance, with a finish like a kitchen aid mixer. I got the white color since it goes with everything. There really aren’t any plastic pieces everywhere like the other one’s entire body. To put the gas cylinder in, you just insert it in the hole in the bottom of the unit and screw it in. Super easy. You don’t have to angle it in or something else stupid. The only drawback at all I would say is that the unit isn’t well weighted, not even with the cylinder in. It stands just fine and functions perfectly without having to hold the machine but I just wish there was more of a weighted bottom to be extra sturdy. Finally, the bottle it very chique, not like the other ones at ALL, BUT the other brand of bottles DO FIT PERFECTLY! Pay attention to the expiration dates on the bottle since it could be dangerous otherwise. I would never buy the other one again, ever. The carbonation is even better. Get a few new gas cylinders from the store so you will never run out and you can just exchange the cylinders.

It has a simple style that looks great on the counter. We've had the Carbonator 3 for about two years, and everyone in the house loves it! Worth the extra $ to me, because I don't have to look at an ugly soda maker day in and day out. If you aren't into the looks, save yourself some money and get a cheaper one.

Great looking and works perfectly so far. Seems to be a high quality product.

The AARKE has a two year warranty. I'm starting to wonder if their customer service team will respond to us before it runs out. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY. The unit looks nice, sure, but you are better off with another brand. Worst customer service experience in my life dealing with AARKE. DO NOT BUY.The machine worked well as any other device for about three months until it abruptly broke. Did some troubleshooting using AARKE's recommended fixes to no avail. AARKE advertises their warranty as a selling point and their website states that "we are committed to ensure our products are at their best." Let me tell you this is not the case.Processed a customer support ticket on their website and they just...ghosted us. Seriously, for two whole months they did not respond at all. We sent in multiple tickets. FINALLY, my wife gets an email from them stating that they switched the company that they use to process and respond to their customer support claims. OK, I guess that explains the radio silence, but some communication in the interim would have been nice.I'd love to tell you that once we got in contact with this new company, they were able to process an exchange for a working unit. Unfortunately, that did not happen. They asked us to send in a bunch of information about our unit so they can process the claim and make sure it was legit. We had to send in all of the typical information (model number, etc.) and also a bunch of pictures that they made us take of the unit from all angles. That was about a month and a half ago - no follow-up from the company since that time. We've attempted to contact them several times since then, they have simply stopped responding. I really would recommend not buying anything from AARKE; if you run into an issue with your unit, you are just out of luck.

Replaced a "Soda Stream" unit. I liked the looks of this, as well as the quality of the material. Uses a lot less CO2 than the Soda Stream unit, and seems to carbonate a lot more than the other unit.No problems with usage; just be sure that you don't fill the bottle(s) above the fill line, read the instructions, and note that the lever has two positions. The instructions explain very clearly how to charge gas into the bottle without wasting your CO2.As a bonus, you can use your old Soda Stream bottles as well with the AARKE carbonator, and highly recommend it. As a side note, it's about an inch or so shorter than the Soda Stream, so it easily fits on the counter under the overhead cabinets.I'm very pleased with this

We liked everything. Beautifully made, looking and working. A work of art, really. Leave it to the Swedes!!

Me gusto mucho este equipo, ampliamente recomendableGracias

Super produit de très bonne qualité en plus c'est Suédois ce qui est une gageure de qualité et de confiance. Le grand avantage de ce produit c'est qu'il est totalement compatible avec les accessoires et bouteilles de son principal concurrent. J'ai pu me débarrasser du produit en plastique médiocre de son principal concurrent que j'avais jusqu'ici. Et esthétiquement il est magnifique !

Super Produkt, schnell einsatzfähig und intuitiv bedienbar. Ein echter Hingucker und sehr schick. Musste ihn allerdings zwei mal bestellen, da der Edelstahl sehr anfällig ist für Kratzer, also besser gründlich im Licht kontrollieren. Es war allerdings kein Problem ihn umzutauschen.Nach längerer Benutzung finde ich den Edelstahl schwierig, da sofort Fingerabdrücke auf dem Gerät sind und man oft Polieren muss. Dafür ist aber extra ein Tuch mitgeliefert. Wer sich die Arbeit machen möchte für den Edelstahl wird damit aber glücklich werden :)

Sencillo y va muy bien.No lo deja como alguna marca carbonatada ....però bastante parecido.Le doy un 10.
