AmazWhip 60L Thread Exchange Carbonator Canister, 14.5 Oz SodaMaker CO2 Gas Cylinder, Fully Charged Carbon Dioxide Canisters for Soda Water Machine, 2 canisters

The media could not be loaded. I've now purchased two sets of co2 bottles from this seller and both times the bottles were full - I even made a verification video to show, one empty and one full (above). As you can tell the empty bottle was 753 grams, the full one 1165 - so a grand total of 412 grams. Take away the top protective cover which I didn't remove (let's say 10 grams) and you have 402 - right on weight.I've never had trouble using these with my Glacier Fresh machine.TIPS:#1 - The issue I think is with people screwing them on correctly - you have to make sure yours is screwed on tightly. The Glacier fresh machine i use mine with has a screw-in connector, but to actually make the valve engage I have to put the bottle down in it's place - by putting this down there the valve actually enages, not before. So if you don't put the bottle "down" you won't get any CO2, at least from my Glacier Fresh machine.#2 - make sure that these bottles are correct for your machine, look at the threads I took a close up of and comopare these to your own -

Air but not bubbles. Even with a brand new bottle this does not seem to have any co2, no effervescence whatsoever.

My soda stream sat idle for almost 3 years because no one conviently had refill canisters. I wasn't interested in juggling the online exchange because if I didn't use it in their time frame I would pay full price.I WAS THRILLED about these.My water intake soars when I fizz my water. No additives needed.I did ask soda stream to make a beer flavor additive, but I guess they didn't like that idea.How about Sangria?

Works great and provides a good amount of carbonation. I recently traded in an empty C02 cartridge for a supposedly new one at a large name store and their replacement took about four hard presses to carbonate and went empty less than a month. I decided to give this AmazWhip brand a try and so far one canister has lasted longer than my my last one and it take about three hard presses to fully carbonate a large container.

Our soda canister exploded after running it only or 2 times truly scary.

Great value and quality.Thank you

Comparable to the name brand cartridges at a much lower price.Amazon has a trade in program, too.I haven't had to participate in the program, yet.I am very pleased with this purchase.PS - Love my Drinkmate, too!

The containers only make about 20 bottles of sparkling water and then they die out.
