Im one of the folks who has one but stopped using it. likley still got my value out of it as much as I did though. I can recommend getting an adapter cable to connect to a standard tank. It does take up more room. I had the soda stream on a counter with the cable going to the tank on the floor. Super cheap to get them filled and last forever.
What do you reckon made you stop using it? What are you drinking now?
I never found an adequate purchased syrup and I got sorta sick of making my own.
Ah, I'm lucky then, here in the Netherlands they sell all kinds of nice syrups in the supermarket! Still looking for a nice cola taste, but otherwise I have cherry, tropical fruit, orange, pear... Oh, and green iced tea, which tastes great too.
yeah I was constantly messing around trying to get mountain dew. im one of those. doctor pepper as a secondary.
Thankfully, I'm not even sure how either of those taste 😅
