Honest Review & Demo of AARKE III!
Real Review's with Beccy
Product Description
The aarke Carbonator is the first appliance of its kind with a seamless, minimalist stainless-steel enclosure in a classic Steel finish. Forget the dull, plastic soda machines of the past: This sparkling water maker is made from premium materials with top of the line safety valves and is designed to elevate the look and feel of your kitchen counter for years to come. The third iteration of the Carbonator features an overhauled internal safety valve system and a new stainless steel precision nozzle. How to use: Fill your bottle up to the fill line (with fresh, clean water only) and attach to the machine. The lever is where the magic starts and ends, both carbonating your water and releasing pressure from the bottle. Push and hold until you hear a buzz, then release and unscrew the bottle from the machine. Enjoy your endless supply of sparkling beverages! Product Dimension: INCLUDES: – 1 aarke Sparkling Water Carbonator III – 1 aarke PET BPA free Reusable Water Bottle – 1 Instruction Manual – 1 dry cloth - 1 drip tray

Enter the Aarke Carbonator Premium. This thing hits on all the points:
1) You get to drink water that you enjoy
2) It's basically a functional work of art and you will love to have it displayed in your kitchen, unlike the clunky plastic shells used by SodaStream. (Full disclosure, I've used SodaStreams for YEARS and it was my #1 purchase in 2012), but they break. There, I said it.
3) It is pricy, but it works exceptionally well and is very solidly built.
4) When you upgrade, all the SodaStream bottles (water and co2) work with it.
5) C'mon, look at it. If you're reading this, you already want it, and you just want someone to say it's a good idea. Let me say it right now. Buy it. You won't be disappointed.
Now, drink up!
The only downsides that I can see is that you have to actually twist the plastic water bottle into the machine which is a bit time consuming when I'm trying to get out the door. The other is that for the money, I'm still shocked the included water bottle isn't glass. I obviously would prefer that.
The bottle that comes with it is a bit taller than the competitor bottles, almost does not fit under the fridge's water spigot. Takes sodastream or similar scew-in co2 canisters. The AARKE branded replacement co2 canisters are the same thing, just more expensive.
The machine worked well as any other device for about three months until it abruptly broke. Did some troubleshooting using AARKE's recommended fixes to no avail. AARKE advertises their warranty as a selling point and their website states that "we are committed to ensure our products are at their best." Let me tell you this is not the case.
Processed a customer support ticket on their website and they just...ghosted us. Seriously, for two whole months they did not respond at all. We sent in multiple tickets. FINALLY, my wife gets an email from them stating that they switched the company that they use to process and respond to their customer support claims. OK, I guess that explains the radio silence, but some communication in the interim would have been nice.
I'd love to tell you that once we got in contact with this new company, they were able to process an exchange for a working unit. Unfortunately, that did not happen. They asked us to send in a bunch of information about our unit so they can process the claim and make sure it was legit. We had to send in all of the typical information (model number, etc.) and also a bunch of pictures that they made us take of the unit from all angles. That was about a month and a half ago - no follow-up from the company since that time. We've attempted to contact them several times since then, they have simply stopped responding. I really would recommend not buying anything from AARKE; if you run into an issue with your unit, you are just out of luck.

E' compatibile con le bottiglie sodastream e con le bombolette comuni.
Ottimo davvero
best purchase in years, didn’t like the ones from other brands, less stable or ugly or both, this one looks super nice in your kitchen and is stable 😍 the fizzy water tastes great!
