How many of you have New Year’s resolutions that involve drinking more water? It is one of mine and I will tell y’all that I have the hardest time drinking enough water. I HATE water! I really do and I have found that if I add a little flavor I can handle it okay. That is where the SodaStream Fizzi One Touch comes in. Thanks to this handy little machine I can get my daily water without adding in a bunch of extra sugar or empty calories. I stay hydrated and feel great. Also, as long as I keep the kids away from it.
Thank you SodaStream for providing me with the Fizzi One Touch in exchange for my review. All opinions expressed are 100% my own.
The Fizzi One Touch is SodaStream’s newest model that retails for $129.99. It has been the one item I am thrilled to have this year. My water intake went from zero to hero in a week of using this. I drink water everyday and drink less than three sodas now. Why is that a big deal? I was drinking twelve or more sodas a day. They were pretty much all I drank most of the day.
You plug the cord into the bottom and there is a little slit where you can run it so that it doesn’t tangle up or anything. It is super easy.
Next is putting the gas canister into the back. I will say that I had to turn it longer than I thought I would because I apparently wasn’t holding it in well enough. The nozzle that you screw the canister to slides in and out. Don’t be afraid. That was my worry, that I was going to pierce the canister and it wouldn’t work. Get a good grip and a few turns will have you nice and snug in there.
Push the canister down and then put the back on it. As you can see I missed the little slit. I did get it into the correct position before we used it.
You have three levels of automatic carbonation which allows you to customize your sparkling water. I like number one. I don’t need much but Ma is a three.
IMPORTANT! You can’t put those little single packs of whatever in this. They will spew out everywhere. How do I know? Because my kids thought they would try. That is how we got that super yellow lemonade. We are not even gonna talk about the mess. SodaStream makes flavoring syrups in a wide assortment of flavors that will work nicely. You can find them in stores as well as online. at various retailers.
I like to carbonate my water and then put it in the fridge. When I am ready I just pour it in my glass or bottle and add a couple of fresh lemon slices. That is my favorite way to drink it. I know that I need to drink two or three bottles a day to feel as though I am getting enough water. I can take the bottle with me to the gym if I want. I also can juts pop it into my diaper bag.
FINAL THOUGHTS
I love my Fizzi One Touch! It looks beautiful on the counter and I can get my water ready for the day first thing each morning. I am planning on buying a couple of other bottles so that I can do a couple of different flavors. It is one of the best products I have gotten this year! It is keeping me on track and ensuring that I drink enough water.

Thanks for the post! I have a Sodastream sitting around that I haven’t used at all. Seeing how well it’s worked for you, I’ll have to give it a try soon!
Rita says
You will love it. Just commit to using it once a day in the beginning. For example make up your water bottle when you make coffee in the morning. Once you start you will find yourself using all of the time. Try the different flavors and do what works for you. For me it is the fresh fruit in there.
Terri Shaw says
I would love to have a Sodastream. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
Rita says
You are so welcome Terri.
Gabrielle says
This sounds great. I too need to start drinking more water and if it works this well for you, maybe it would do the same for me.
Rita says
I would suggest that you give it a try. Like I said it is working well for me.
Ashley says
I can’t believe soda stream’s still exist! I kinda regret getting rid of mine… LOL.I don’t drink soda & at the time wasn’t drinking fizzy water, so I found no use for it. But, I really like the looks of this one.This one looks super simple, compared to the one that I had. Might look into getting it, as I would love to be able to drink fizzy water without having to constantly buy it…
Ahhh, hope the mess wasn’t TOO bad. LOL.
Rita says
The mess was everywhere. I swear I am still finding sticky stuff in the corner’s of the counter top. I love drinking the fizzy water with my SodaStream!
Tamra Phelps says
I’ve been wanting to try SodaStream for a while. I have to flavor my water, too, so I think this would be a nice way to get that.
DailyWoman (Lacey) says
I love the Soda Stream. I love being able to make different drinks.
Rita says
So do I!
Laurie Nykaza says
I can’t wait to make it with fresh sliced lemons my sister just gave me a machine and i had not tried it yet.
Kayte CookWatts says
Thank you for breaking down in exactly what to is like to use it! Lots of people talk about how much they love theirs, but with no real details. This is much more practical than buying flavored water.
Deanna Marissa says
After reading this post I think I need to invest in soda stream. Thanks for sharing your view.
Elizabeth Miller says
I have been going back and forth considering one of these forever. Thank for the review because you gave me some different thought of it. I do not like selzer water and keep wondering if when you ix stuff does it end up tasting pretty much like flavored selzer water.
Natalie says
I have been thinking about getting one of these because I am addicted to diet soda and would like to start drinking healthier beverages.
Amy says
I wanted to buy one of these a while ago, but I never did. I think I finally need to take the plunge – thanks for the review!
Anne marie says
I need to get motivated about drinking more water. Especially because I’m nursing a baby right now. Great review!
Natalie says
I have been looking into getting one of these because I drink diet soda all the time and am looking for a healthier beverage.
Donna says
What a neat product! Drinking regular water everyday can get boring, so this would add some variety and help me to reach my intake goal. Thanks!
