Promising review: "We are longtime SodaStream users...our 8-year-old unit finally started to fail, so we upgraded to the One Touch. Absolute dream...easy to use, consistent, efficient. As good as the manual carbonator was this is even better. Just push the filled SodaStream bottle onto the One Touch, you don't even have to screw it in, hit the start button twice and in about 10 seconds you have a liter of freshly carbonated water. Can't emphasize enough how simple this is. We drink four or more liters of seltzer a day in the summer so this machine has gotten a fair bit of use since we set it up...100% reliable to date." —

My girlfriend and I traveled to Seattle a few months back and we already miss the coffee. We consider ourselves somewhat of a coffee fanatic of sorts. We both make home-brewed lattes each morning and grind our own coffee beans daily. Again the beans are from Seattle and we actually got beans from a familiar location cafe ladre so that is really awesome. Again we are excited to use the new coffee Seattle does coffee the best and can't wait. I will write another review on each bag after testing." —
