SodaStream Enso Sparkling Water Maker Kit - includes CO2 and Carbonating Bottle

Quality: The exterior is lined with stainless steel but be warned that it's really just lined with it and the machine itself is just plastic but covered with a thin sheet of stainless steel.....even so I believe this is very likely one of the most durable ones you will likely find. Although the interior is plastic lined with stainless steel I believe this isn't a problem because of the fact that it's stainless steel, that alone should prevent the parts from breaking easily and it also look quite nice. Not sure why people complain about finger prints showing up easily because that's ridiculous......all stainless steel has that problem, it comes with a really nice cloth for removing the fingerprints so that should not even be a factor for anyone.Operating: The CO2 Canister was very easy to install and I felt quite confident that this mechanic would not wear out easily. All I had to do was pop the back open and slide it in, push it back in place and lower a lever and it slid right in with no resistance. As far as carbonating the lever is solid and will hold the bottle in place, if you follow the instructions I don't see why you should have any problems.Carbonation: I've seen some people in other reviews for other products complain that it didn't carbonate strongly. That does not seem to be the case with this. I have only so far tried the 1 second button presses 5 times as suggested for strong carbonation in the manual and it came out just as carbonated in my opinion as a Fresh Soda.Taste: The taste is determined mostly by what you put into it. I tried it with a Liquid Caffeinated Water Enhancer and it blew my mind how good it turned out to be....this will definitely help me kick Energy Drinks at the Gas Station for good.Value For Money: It's a bit steep but I would personally be afraid to buy anything cheaper as they are all made of pure plastic and look like they would break within a month or two of solid use. This one feels like it will last. The thing is I calculated how much I would save by making my own carbonated energy drinks and this machine will actually pay for itself in 3-4 months. The fact that it also gets me away from the over caffeinated 300mg energy drinks from the gas station will be a really big bonus.Functionality: Very easy to operate, you pull the back open, pull up a lever, slide the canister in, push it back, and lower the lever for refilling it. For operating it you fill the bottle, pop it in, lower a lever, and push a button.

This is my 2nd SodaStream machine. I didn't really like my first one but this was few years back. It wasn't powerful, and I felt that the water didn't taste good and CO2 would evaporate really quickly. I love this sodastream and love how visually appealing it is. The water tastes amazing and the bubbles hold for hours. I know some people complained about the bottle having the metal part at the bottom and having potential mold build up, hence they added the unlock feature where you can take off the part and wash. Weird, but okay! I love the bottle AND there is a free bottle coupon inside the box that has been extended to end of September so don't throw it away! I got my free bottle and subscribed on their website for replacement of 2 cartridges for every 2 I use (price-wise it's way cheaper!). I bought the Bubbly flavors but I could care less for them honestly. They don't tase the same as the store bought seltzers but a lime wedge does it for me with the Sodastream water so I'm good! I have been going through a ton of canned seltzer so I'm hoping to reduce the waste!

Purchased this with amazon day pricing by invitation, and got lucky and was able to buy it for a good price. I wanted this for its clean look and stainless steel material to match my kitchen. I don’t mind it being on the counter because it blends in with the look and is attractive. Easy click into the machine, and makes custom effervescence. Only four stars and not five, because it is top heavy, and you cannot use glass bottles.

Works great! Easy to use! I just have to order extra bottles because it only comes with one. Very much worth the price

The media could not be loaded. I'd tell you this is the best product I've picked out at Amazon Invite Only Prime-Deal! Price was reasonable during the event. I looked into all SodaStream Sparkling Water Makers and found Enso would be a good pick for me. Enso looks so classy (all chrome-plastic casing) and is good compact size which makes your counter space less clustered. It's shiny as you can see from my photo and video. Unboxing felt so good, it's decorative! Very easy to install CO2 canister, set-up is just as easy as slide-in. Carbonating Bottle can contain 28 oz. of water, up to the line indicator. 3 presses is enough to store for half a day. I prefer 5 presses to keep the bottle in the fridge until the next day. Lastly sparkling water tastes so good! Just like any sparkling water. Overall it is worth to have one if you love sparkling water or carbonated water. **Received an extra Carbonating Bottle from SodaStream after registering my product**

Bought this to replace my ancient plastic Soda Stream and while I was shocked at price when I viewed it, it is mostly metal so should hold up for years. It is also much easier to change cartridge and attach water bottle to gas spout.

I am absolutely thrilled with the SodaStream Enso Sparkling Water Maker! This device has become an essential part of my kitchen. Its minimalist and stylish design really catches the eye and fits perfectly into any interior. The water turns out great, and the carbonation level is easy to adjust, so you can enjoy your drinks just the way you like them.However, after a month of use, my bottle broke. I contacted support through the official website, and they quickly responded by sending me a new bottle without any hassle. I’m very pleased with this level of service and hope the new bottle will last longer. Despite this minor issue, the machine itself deserves top marks. Highly recommend!

I am really satisfied with this product. I finally can drink water every time I feel like. I never felt like drinking regular water. It was an obligation. But buying sparkling water every day was not cheap. If you are like me, give it to yourself. It will pay off.
