The best performing and best looking soda maker is the SodaStream Art, which made the fizziest water with the easiest set up, and held carbonation easily over 24 hours. The SodaStream Aqua Fizz performed just as well as the Art, and was the only model tested that featured glass bottles.
We did the maths and found that even if you use high levels of carbonation, a SodaStream or another brand of soda maker is usually cheaper than buying bottled sparkling water (especially if you have a penchant for the pricey imported stuff).

Because the carbonation nozzle of a SodaStream Source produces some downward force during carbonation, some spray may occur if the carbonation bottle is inserted at an angle. Check to make sure that the carbonation bottle is completely upright and not inserted at an angle.
