Carbonator Pro - Premium Sparkling Water Maker, Stainless Steel

This is my second Aarke sparkling water machine. I started with the simpler one. It was great having sparking water whoever we wanted it. This one, more refined is so worth the upgrade in my experience. What's material. Easily overlooked... this thing is so much quieter than any other carbonator I've used. The plastic bottle ones do their work in the open air and when the bottle has its fill of CO2, it vent's, loudly, into the room. With this one a robust glass container goes in a closed carbonation chamber. Presumably this is a safety measure in case the glass were to shatter. To me, the most compelling effect of this chamber is making the process quiet. I would. say this unit is 20 db quieter than the other one. It's material and makes making sparkling water enjoyable; now it's a sort of a magic trick instead of a chore. Second is I really like using the glass containers. We put them on the table when serving, they're artful enough for even fancier meal service. This thing is pretty expensive. I don't lament the investment even a little.

They do not send a cartridge with the unit so once the unit arrived, we had to order a cartridge. By the time the cartridge arrived I was out of town. When I returned home I assembled it and the directions were somewhat ambiguous so I thought that maybe I was not doing as well as I should. . I tried it for about a week and a half. There are bubbles in the water, but not as many as I thought there would be. Also, when I tilted the unit upside down I could see that it is not all stainless steel. There is something inside that looks like it could be plastic or silicone and the whole reason I spent all that extra money was because I did not want plastic or silicone with my water. Today decided that I should return it, but of course the time limit ran out a couple of days ago. I am very depressed that I put my faith in this company and I feel like a loser.

This carbonator is well made and attractive. Using stainless steel and glass, plastic contamination is eliminated.

it’s ok, definitely not worth $350. Getting proper carbonation is challenging. It needs some automation that can detect carbonation or temperature to improve its performance. This thing $350…

I've used it 5 times so far and I love it! I did a bit of research before this purchase and I'm very happy with the results. The machine itself is beautiful and looks great on the counter. I would say that you have to "press and hold" to hear the buzzing sound of the water being carbonated. The reservoir in the bottom to collect water that spills is quite nice...it does come in handy. I would recommend flavoring your water after carbonating it. I'm buying a second bottle!

This product lasted 2 weeks until it stopped to seal and no longer make any bubbles. The leakage reported by others is fortunately not happening. The bottle appears completely unaffected, even though it sounds like a gas charge is dispensed. It is an expensive, worthless but very beautiful thing… it works great as a paper weight!

It works very good. the glass does not have a limited time of use like some of the plastic bottles. The glass can be cleaned and is heavy built. I like it.

I upgraded to this one because our SodaStream Duo us is impossible to clean and I just didn't like using it when the carbonator has gone brown after years. I had hoped by spending more and reading all the blurb this one would come apart for cleaning - durable and sustainable design - the 3 has visibly a steel carbonator so I assumed that the pro would too. I picked the Pro because it's simply easier for clumsy hands and, like our old soda stream, glass bottles. Not a fan of plastic. Seems I was wrong, the carbonator on the Pro is plastic and not removable for cleaning so it's probably going back. Very disappointed. I really thought I'd finally found one that could be properly cleaned.

I ordered two. This one as a gift for my parents, when i went to their place and tried it, the sparkle is super little. I regret it will never buy it again. Too expe sive for the quality

We had the regular one for years and used to go through co2 canisters 4 every 1O days now w the professional one I used one co2 canister every 2 weeks plus the glass bottle are great and it makes super carbonation. Well worth the money highly recommended

Honestly a fair price for a bit of a luxury machine. Looks fantastic and works very well. The all metal makes it seem very stable and built to last. Filling up the matching and also beautiful glass bottles is very satisfying. Especially if you have other Aarke products, it all looks very good together and I can only recommend.
