Twenty39 qarbo CLASSIC Sparkling Water Maker Machine - Soda Beverage Carbonator for Home, Seltzer & Carbonated Beverage Dispenser, Water Carbonation Fizz Maker (Matte Black)

This is my 2nd soda machine and WOW, it is a big step up from the standard style, and a much better bargain, too. I highly recommend it if you are looking for a system that allows you to heavily carbonated sugary beverages. That is the #1 advantage of this system. It is just as easy to use though the steps are different.Be advised, there is an o ring that needs to be installed before attaching the co2 tank. The instructions make no mention of it. I thought it was defective because gas spewed everywhere after attaching the tank. It wasn't until I was repacking it that I notice a 2nd cap squeezed deep into the packing materials with a tiny package with the o ring inside. I had already requested a replacement and now I have to return the 2nd because Amazon was amazingly fast at sending another.The bottles are tall and thin, so I store them on their sides. The shape makes heavy carbonation easier and the caps seal tightly, so they don't leak. This is not a negative if what you want is a lot of carbonation.The steps are different too. First, add the flavoring, then chilled water, attach the injector cap, and then inject the co2. The instructions suggest pushing the button for 2 to 3 seconds up to 3 times until the level is to your liking. I have found that 1, 3 second burst is enough but have tried a 2nd burst. It was overkill for my taste.Once you have achieved the desired amount of carbonation and removed the bottle from the machine, it is recommended that you tip the bottle from side to side to absorb more of the co2 and to mix the syrup or flavorings added. There will be significant frothing in sugary drinks.Before you can remove the injector cap, you need to give the beverage a few seconds to settle. Then release the excess gas by turning the cap 1st to the slow-release setting then to the faster setting. (Again, this takes seconds).And finally, you remove the injector cap and replace it with the sealed cap provided to store the drink. Sure, you will lose a small amount of carbonation in this process but whatever the loss, it is slight compared to adding flavorings after carbonating the water. And that is it. You now have 2.4, 12 oz servings of soda.The injector is cleaned by simply immersing it in plain warm water for a few minutes then allowing it to air dry. I recommend purchasing an extra injector if you are going to make several different flavors. That way you always have a clean and dry injector for use. Look for the package deal offered. Mine came with 3 injectors & 4 bottles.The bottles store fine on their side and will keep it carbonated for at least 24 hours. If it does go flat, you can carbonate it again.I highly recommend this machine for soda lovers. It is a bonus that it is attractive. I got the bronze color, and it is true that the machine is a deep bronze color while the trim on the bottles is more of a rose gold that compliments the machine. The coordinated colors are beautiful.PS. If anyone has a good cola syrup recipe, I would appreciate it if you could share it with me :)

The Twenty39 Qarbo CLASSIC has completely transformed my hydration routine! Its sleek and lightweight design fits perfectly in my kitchen, and the ease of use is unmatched. I love how I can infuse fresh fruit flavors directly into the bottle—goodbye, boring plain water! The carbonation system is efficient, and the two-stage pressure release valve ensures no loss of fizz, even with syrups or fruit infusions.What sets this apart is the attention to detail: the wide-mouth bottles make it easy to add ingredients, and the measurements on the bottles help me get the perfect mix every time. It's not just a soda maker; it's a tool for creativity and healthier living.Highly recommend this to anyone looking to elevate their beverage game. Worth every penny!

This was definitely an impulse purchase BUT I'm very happy with this product. Easy set up and use. Love the sleek design that takes very little space on the counter. Comes with 2 bottles & the carbonation cap that is separate (not attached) making it easy to clean and sanitary. Though not a biggie, but at this price point, I wish it came with at least 1 Co2 Tank as an add on. I purchased the Soda Sense 60L (threaded connector) tanks & they fit & work perfectly.

I love this product. We had a soda stream many time with “love for short period - then bored” type experience. This product is different. I love the shape of the bottle ( reminds me of Voss water bottles which I love), they are easier to clean as well than regularly shaped bottle. I am absolutely CRAZY about the ability to add fruit etc to your sparkling water without the need to add any type of artificial flavor drops. Kids also added the regular soda mixes (from soda stream) like coke, root beer, and my tonic water :))) with a success. The down side - it is a bit spendy considering it comes without the Co 2 tank and also feels like a bit cheap plastic. - none of the less looks very slick on the counter and does not take much space at all! Would by it again.
