[QUOTE="HMFIC, post: 1673908, member: 7539"] I was also looking into regular commercial soda setups and just piping off of the co2 that I have for a kegorator anyway. The issue there is you need a cold plate or some kind of ice setup and a carbonator to actually make the bubbles. After all of that cost, the syrup ends up being pretty cheap and you can mimick Quiktrip and McDonalds type costs. AND you can use actual Coca-Cola and name brand syrups. With Soda Stream, after your setup costs and recurring carbonator refill costs, you pay about $5 + S&H for the generic "cola" syrup and that yeilds around 12 liters or 33 cans. It doesn't work out to be cost effective IMHO. It's fun and a nice little novelty, but if you're looking to save money then you're going to be disappointed. Plus you'll probably start drinking enough soda to plump up about 50 pounds right quick. Anyway, those are just my thoughts on it. If you get one, post a review or something so we can get some first hand details of how it goes. [/QUOTE]
