My Review :
I was not sure what to expect when my SodaStream arrived. I was given the Soda Starter Kit along with some extra flavors to try and an extra bottle for soda. My kids were even more excited than I was to try it out and immediately began making flavor choices. I read through the directions and they seemed simple enough, so we started with one of the sample flavors - Fountain Mist (yes, I know - Mt Dew is my favorite, not my kids' choice, but hey, this is MY review too)
I was surprised with how similar it tastes to Mt Dew - a bit sweeter, but a bit milder too. I found that I liked the flavor pretty well, and could most likely get used to it quickly as an alternative to my favorite carbonated beverage.
I decided that since we had 2 bottles that I would let one of the kids pick another flavor to try - they chose Orange. Again we were all pleasantly surprised with how good it tastes. I must say, I liked the orange ok, it has a bit more of a citrisy flavor than the store bought Orange type soda that I've previously drank, but my kids and husband all liked the SodaStream Orange better than the other brand.
We have since tried: Dr. Pete (a big hit with all), Diet Lemon Lime (my son thinks it tastes "just like regular Sprite"), Root Beer (kids love it, me not so much) and Cola (we all enjoyed this one, even my husband who is not a soda fan).
My family has since bought much less soda from the store and have been using the SodaStream flavors instead most of the time. I even found out that one of our local stores trades and sells the Carbonators, and also sells many of our favorite flavors so we won't even have to order online, but can buy local for all our SodaStream needs. I love how compact and sleak my SodaStream is and how it doesn't take up much counter space. It is easy enough for even kids to use.

Soda Stream, smart simple, soda...The whole idea appeals to me as a diabetic. I would experiment with flavors to keep myself off the pop! I drink mostly water, tea and coffee, but I crave the bubbles! Thanks for the review.
