Ninja Thirsti Drink System, Soda Maker, Create Unique Sparkling & Still Drinks, Personalize Size & Flavor, Carbonated Water Machine, 60L CO2 Cylinder & Variety of Flavored Water Drops, Gray WC999AMZ

The Ninja Thirsti Beverage System really surprised me. It’s super convenient for making drinks at home quickly with the flavor you prefer. I love that you can customize the flavor strength and the carbonation level, so every drink comes out exactly how you like it. Plus, there are many flavor options to choose from.

It is super easy to use, and the drinks it produces are absolutely delicious.... With a very few exceptions. Everything I have made with this is very good, but I really don't have a liking for the 'splash' series. These are very lightly flavored. Some people may like the very light hint of fruit, but not my cup of tea. The rest of the flavors are excellent! The hydration series is delicious and provides electrolytes, the energy tastes great and provides caffeine, and the vitamins series are also delicious and provide variations of vitamin B. The machine is very easy, even for children, to use and select the options they want. I have also experimented with blending the flavors quite a bit and everything is yummy for the most part. I have also made plain carbonated water with this, and added a squeeze flavor from the grocery store and they taste great as well. I have also seen people use other vendor syrups with this machine, and have great results, but the Ninja instructions don't recommend this. Overall, this thing is easy to use, takes little counter space, and can produce sports drinks, energy drinks, mixers, sodas, and fruit drinks for home or on the go. It isn't terribly expensive, and is pretty fun to experiment with. I like it better than the Soda Stream, and other soda making clones out there, and I would recommend it to anyone without hesitation.

This is an awesome soda machine, I've never had another one, so can't compare, but it works really well and is well-designed. We were really glad we got it and felt like we should have done it sooner, way better than getting the cans.

It works well. Its compact. Easy to install. Easy to clean. I like the various flavors available. There are some gripes I have with it. I feel like the carbonation runs out too early and it doesn't always seem to work like it's supposed to. For instance, i liked the idea of being able to make different levels of carbonation. I was hoping level 1 would be a perrier, level 2 would be like la croix, and level 3 would be an aha / seltzer that delightfully burns my throat as it descends. But sadly it seems like they're all equal levels of aha-level bubbly. To be fair, I bought this solely because I got tired of having tons of cans to recycle often (and reducing the BPA exposure from their linings). I wanted something easy to use with any cup/ container. These expectations have been met. Initially I thought I might save some money long-term too, but I don't believe I have. Overall, it's easy to use, is compact, and minimal effort. I like it. ---------- But for those who are considering this solely to save money... I could never find a good break down of this, so maths time. I love me some sparkling water. I went through about 24x 12oz cans / week of sparkling water (~42 oz/ day or 294 oz/wk) before getting the thirsti. An 8pk is like 4 bucks, so thats $12 / wk for cans. How does this stack against the thirsti costs? First, lets talk about the CO2. A canister costs about $30 at target. It says that it can carbonate up to 60L(~2000 oz), so this should have lasted me ~10 weeks or $3/wk. However, it ran out after 3 weeks of only using carbonation level 2. Since changing the canister, I have been using carbonation level 1, so we'll see if that makes it last longer though I am doubtful as I can't tell a difference. From my experience thus far, the canister alone will continue to cost almost as much per week ($10) as the cans... For argument, let's say that it lasts 6 weeks on carbonation level 1. That's still $5/wk for CO2 alone. Then the flavorings. The flavor drops are about $20/3 or ~$6 for one. One drop bottle will give about 17x 12 oz drinks at most. Mind you, this is if you have a 12 oz cup and only use the lowest intensity of one flavor. You can quadruple the potency. Usually i just mix one serving each of two different flavors into a 12 or 18 oz drink. Using this math, if I'm fully replacing cans with this device, I'm going through about 2 flavor drop bottles per week, conservatively.... which translates to $12/week. Then there's the cost of the device itself. Given that it comes with 8 flavor pods (~$50 value) and a CO2 cannister (~$30), the true one-time cost is about $70. My total recurring costs per week for cans? $12 / wk. Total per week for the thirsti? $11 / wk for an optimistic estimate, $22 / wk for a practical estimate. A middle-road estimate shows that oz per oz, a seltzer by thirsti is more expensive than a seltzer from aha, la croix, waterloo, etc. ---- There are ways to save money which I would recommend exploring. - Flavoring. $6 for a 2.2 Fl Oz ($2.7/oz) bottle of flavor is not great. Stur and Mio have similar flavors, and they are 2.2/oz and 1.8/oz respectively. Generic flavorings can be even cheaper, about $1.5/oz. If I did this, I could reduce my weekly costs from $12 to $6. - CO2. Ninja has a CO2 refill club which allows you to mail in your spent canisters and receive new ones for 30% off. This would drop my weekly cost from $5-10 to $3-7. I could also buy generic compatible CO2 canisters for half the price, though I don't recommend it. You don't want to mess w pressurized gas. If something happens / explodes and you are using a generic CO2 canister, the fault is more likely to be placed on you instead of the manufacturer. Hopefully this helps. Here is a standardized cost estimate from my data above for anyone weighing pricing. Cans: 0.04/oz Thirsti max cost: 0.075/oz Thirsti min cost: 0.057/oz Thirsti w generic flavor: 0.045/oz Thirsti w co2 club: 0.045/oz Thirsti w both changes: 0.038/oz Not really worth the effort for cost savings alone imo

There are so many great points to say about the ninja thirsty, but the most important thing is how easy it is to use, and how much I love the variety of flavors. Every drink that I make has been perfect, I love that you could adjust how bubbly you want your water, and how strong you want the flavour to be. The product is 10 times better than my previous soda machine that I had.This is an amazing product! I highly recommend.

Me encanta tomar soda y con este sistema me es muy fácil y más saludable.

Sorprendido con el resultado de burbujas, desde pocas burbujas para servir de inmediato está perfecto, cuenta con 3 niveles de burbujas Me llegó con 2 muestras de sabores son buenos y no contienen azúcar Y para que su funcionamiento sea bueno hay que usar agua muy fría Esto reducirá el gasto de agua mineral en casa

I absolutely love this product, it is easy to use and it has helped me increase my water intake. The only problem I have with it is the counter space required for the machine is a bit much for what I have, but that is my problem not the company's problem.

J'adore, facile a utiliser , boissons rafraîchissantes a volonté et même des saveurs variées. Fruit du dragon et autres saveurs disponibles ainsi que la possibilité de faire des mélanges de saveurs.
