I like that you can make the smaller portion with the ninja. It'd be good for an office space
You can exchange soda stream for half price and no mailing costs big difference. And the Terra machine with 2 bottles and 2 carb bottles for less than 100 dollars
I prefer to put the syrup in the bottom of my glass. Pour the sparkling water over top to half the glass and give it a gentle swirl. Then fill up the rest. I can mix whatever flavor I want without the bottle fizzing over.
I've had my soda stream for around 5 years. Never failed me and easy to use.
Is there any way you can do a review of the attachments for co2 to add a larger tank?
So there is a conversion kit for the screw in co2 tanks I can get a 5lb co2 tank filled for around $18
to me, it depends on the personality of the user. if you are a gaget geek and like to push buttons, get the Ninga. if you are simple, no stress no mess, get the sodastream.
Exactly!
no mess LOL i really do not want to measure out my drinks all the time
I have a soda stream we don’t use the flavors or we just add some juice if we want it. Also it seems the ninja is by the glass . So if your sitting down for a meal with four people and you want to refill your glass you need to go to the machine. With soda stream you can fill as many bottles as you want put them in the fridge and just pour from the bottle, we put a non carbonated bottle of water in the fridge before carbonating as co2 works better when the water is cold.. Unless I’m missing something I don’t like having to go to the machine every time I want a drink pus I have to have a cold container of water standing with ice and the ice will melt before I may want another drink.
You can fil bottle too with the Ninja Thirst. I have both of them and I prefer the Ninja Thirsti. Sodastream is ok too, but the way the Thirsti works is really better and very fizzy.
The price balances out with the fact you need to purchase multiple SodaStream bottles.
Q
You're forgetting convenience
If you just want plain soda water, then you can do it when you feel like it. Just enough. Instead of opening up a large 2 liter once. Refrigerate it. Loosing it's fizz if you don't drink it quickly.
So overall it saves gas, time, money and its fresh when you get it.
Q
I have not tried the Thirsti. But I did see a different video where the "blue" CO2 bottles for the older Sodastream models (which are still commonly available) use the same threading (they screw in) as the Ninja Thirsti and they seem to be compatible. As far as the cost goes, you can dramatically reduce your cost of carbonation per serving for either carbonated water maker if you either recharge your 60L cylinders from a large CO2 tank (you can do this MANY, MANY times per 20lb bottle of CO2) or you hook up a hose and adapter to run from the large CO2 tank directly to Sodastream/Thirsti (but then you have a large cylinder sitting around near your Sodastream/Thirsti which is not "pretty"). You can get adapter kits online for either approach. But the syrups cost what they cost unless you can wait for them to go on sale.
I’m glad for this esp the pricing information. I was contemplating a soda machine just to replace the Walmart and Lidl sparking flavored waters. But lidl is .59 per 33 ounces so I think we’ll stay w the lidl as this sounds way more expensive. This video was real helpful and I appreciate it.
Twist the top off an empty Ninja 'pod' and fill it with soda stream syrup. Twist the top back on. Flavor issue solved. It works.
When doing cost comparisons you should just calculate the cost per ounce, that way it actually shows which is cheaper
Good idea.
Great comparison and vid. Keep it up!!
And light press for light carbonation on the stream
Just buy a soda siphon for like 30 bucks. You make your stuff in the bottle so no machine required. The only issue with using a soda siphon is you have to use single use 8 gram c02 cartridges. They can't be refilled once they're spent they're spent. But it works really well and was the original way soda fountains did it back in the early 1900s through the 50s.
I still have my orientation soda stream from years ago lol
I'm new to all of these products, I like the review. I do wish to see how the co2 bottles go in, i'll go see your other reviews
The Sodastream takes up less space on the counter. You make a quart at a time. It is way more simple to operate. You can put it anywhere as it doesn't need a cord. I purchased extra bottles and keep cold water in the fridge ready to go. I don't have to push a lot of buttons to make sure I'm getting what I want. As you can see, I much prefer the Sodastream, although I'm sure the Ninja is a great machine. I have other Ninja kitchen machines. You get the soda flavors of Pepsi, Root Beer, Dr. Pepper, Orange Crush with the Sodastream, in addition to all the fruit flavors.
Does it stay fizzy for hours in a bottle?
Just a tip. For the sodastream, you have to wait until you hear the "hiss" before letting go of the carbonation button. Once you do that, let it rest for 2-3 seconds and press again until you hear the hiss. I do this 5-6 times and get the perfect carbonation every time.
any one know if can use room temperature water in there?? i can put ice in after to taste. i dont have enough ice or attention to always have enough to keep the water in there cold
Had different sodastream models, and sold them to get the ninja . No regrets at all Love the Ninja 10 X’s better.
Love my thirsti
I bet they get you with the CO refills like Printers with Ink.
I'm still looking for a review that puts ice cold gin or vodka in the resovoir lol
There are a few liquor machines out there but this is one of 3 I know of and least expensive and affordable…. Also only 2 you can use your own choice of brand liquor, 1 other also can use your own and the other has pods that have liquor in already with bitters mixed in but pods are expensive and hard to find, bartesian has a long list of drinks and other cool items like hard drink recipe book, glassware etc and you can set up subscription on month or up to every 5-6 month delivery and cheap prices.
I had a SodaStream for over a decade but never liked that I'm forced to make a large amount at a time, I almost always end up losing a half bottle so this would allow me to make just the amount I want and avoid a massive amount of wasted CO2 and water.
Perhaps you can modify the ninja flavor bottles and refill it with the Pepsi syrup.
$7 for a 12-pack soda = .58 cent a can at your local Target or Walmart. I love technology but I think I'll stick with buying 12-packs or 36 pack at Big box wholesalers. Really appreciate your review and comparison.
You can take soda stream CO2 to target for $17 for the canister bottle
You could probably use the slipstream flavors with the Thirsti.
As I gotten older I’ve grown tired of all the added unnecessary items we choose to complicate our lives. I guess that’s just an aging thing. 😅 Edited to say…. This review was fantastic though!! Well done !
Well if you manage to get it as a gift, with every soda stream bottle you manage to save for an extra 1 L of pepsi so if you drink large amount of sodas you'll wave a bit on this
I do see why people compare them like this, but as a German they're almost like two different gadgets to me. Obviously you can buy syrups here for the SodaStream too, but most people I know just have one to make carbonated water so they don't have to cart around crates of water.
We just drink a lot of carbonated water here in general, so to me the SodaStream is more a water maker then a soda maker.
Now, when I think of the Ninja Thirsti I consider that one more of a soda or lemonade maker, because it requires way more steps (like cooled down water and wait time) to just get one glass of carbonated water.
does the ninja thirsti must have water and ice in the reservoir??? i prefer noncold drinks....
Cold water carbonates better. I think that is the reason for the ice and water.
You cannot carbonate non-cold water as well. The carbonation process just works better the colder the liquid.
you can use without chilled water
What if you make your own syrup or drink and want to carbonate it.
pour it in ... are you serious?
@@Redridge07 yes. Thanks for your advice.
So i read the coments everyone saying they prefer sodastream cuz they can add their own flavor, but i read the ninja can do nonflavor and you can add these bubbly drops as well... or that pepsi taste, right? People saying theyd rather make a bottle, well you can also make a bottle with several uses of the ninja, right?
The only disadvantage is the price of CO2 canisters , sodastream $15 and ninja$30 as well as ninja requiring a plug in?
Anyone figured if any sodastream canisters fut into ninja?
Too bad it's only sweeteners.
$15 at Walmart exchange
Question is does it last more than 2 years? Every ninja product I have had breaks after 2 years
who knows it came out 2 months ago
Can you do coca-Cola syrup on the ninja?
You can make it. Add syrup yourself, done
If you are in the USA the exchange for CO2 is not $30 it's $15.
Not having Pepsi or cola flavors and rhe flavor packs being way more for way smaller is what will hurt the ninja system...but ninja seems to not minding catering to people who only buy more expensive appliances. One thing I can say is my ninja blender has been around for like 6 or 7 years it seems and still going. I also have a cheaper one that I've gone through 3 or 4 of at this point.. but at 19.99 each and now 29.99 idk if I've paid as much as I have for my ninja yet lol if the ninja blender I have had larger cups I wouldn't have had to buy the other 🤷🏾♂️
Why does it taste funny no matter what I do
artificial sweeteners
The water also makes a difference. I usually use filtered water and it makes a world of difference.
Pepsi is a better investment than coke for people that don’t eat, or in this case drink ultra processed
can it be used without syrups?
Although I like the idea of the Ninja, I remain a Sodastream loyalist for two reasons. First, I don't want to have to fill the reservoir with ice every time I want to make a drink (ice water carbonates better), and second, I don't actually use Sodastream syrups. I like using syrups from other companies like Monin, Torani, and others. Can't do that with Ninja.
Yea you can. I have the thirsty and I use cola, torani, colas, and ninja flavors. You know the thirsti is the better machine. Quit cappin
@@charleselbert5610 Well, since I don't have it, I don't know it's the better machine. And I haven't seen anything that lets me use other syrups except the idea of emptying Thirsti pods and refilling them with other stuff...too much hassle, and then there's the whole needing to add ice every time I want to use it thing, which would really annoy me. If you like it, that's great. When they add a compressor to keep the water cold, then I'll reconsider.
@wesotl1026 just keep it in the fridge why add ice ?
@@juniormm6388 The colder the water when carbonated, the better the carbonation absorbs into the water, so you always want to use very cold water when you carbonate. This also means you'll spend less money on CO canisters because you're carbonating better/more efficiently. Since the Thirsti has a 48 oz reservoir, that means I either have to 1) store the entire reservoir in the fridge and reattach it every time I want to make a glass of soda, 2) refill it with cold water every time I'm ready to use it, or 3) add ice to get it cold every time I'm ready to use it. With the Soda Stream, I just carbonate the whole bottle of already cold water and either flavor the whole bottle or use it to make individual drinks, if I want. Just a lot less fuss and fewer steps. If you have a big family and will use the entire Thirsti reservoir of water in one shot, then that probably works fine, but for one person who doesn't drink a ton of soda, the Soda Stream just works better for me.
The thirsti also carbonates the plain water, that way you can add other syrups separately.
wait so if we breathe out co2 and co2 carbonates these drinks why dont we just breathe really hard on our flat sodas to make them carbonated again 😂😊😂🎉😅🎉😮😢😅😢😊🎉😂😅😂😅❤❤❤😂😊🎉😮🎉🎉
Well, maybe you could do that if you had the lung power of a tornado. 😀
I have soda streams, I make italian soda with it. but I would by ninja
What is Italian soda?
@@niknaksim it's Torani Syrup or some like and Sparkling water or club soda. they are very good
I like my sodastream. The ninja has to many steps for the same result. I ll just pour in my flavor after choosing which bottle size drink im making. And the ability to use the machine without a plug is even better. The ninja looks like a pretty decent product. It ll probably stick around and compete with the sodastream
See, I hate adding in the flavors manually on my Sodastream. Maybe I haven't found the easiest way to measure. J don't use the "soda" flavors much with the cap as the measuring tool.
Personally I like that you can pour completely into a cup
It takes 3 seconds to do the thirsti
@TheCassidyCain you could I guess just poor the bottle into a cup and even stir it that way so it doesn't fizz out
I love my SodaStream, But I find that sometimes I forget to put the cap back on or don't drink it for a few days with the cap on and the fizz isn't as strong. I like the fact that sometimes I just want 18 oz. The steps to me are negligible. 3 pushes in my SodaStream adding flavor vs. hitting a few buttons on the Ninja,
How are they really really close pricewise? The SodaStream comes in at 0.0311 per ounce (87 cents per28oz) whereas the NinjaThirsty comes in at 0.0483 per ounce (58 cents per12oz). The Ninja will cost the user 55% more. Not close at all. To put that into context, a 355ml can of soda would be 58cents for the Ninja, yet only 37cents with the Soda stream.
Soda stream is ass.
Why United States Americans use ounces, what the hell is that? Nobody in the world understands that, just use ml and liters. Come on.
I'm going to buy the Ninja simply because I just spent 20 minutes trying to figure the differences between all the Sodastream models, what a joke, they don't make it easy that's for sure. Gonna buy the Ninja right now.
Simple. Some of the Sodastreams are electric, some are manual. I like the fact that the manual ones can be placed anywhere you like without needing an electrical outlet. I also like the fact that I can use a quart (approximately), put it in the refrigerator and take as much or as little as I want at a time. Want only a sip? Take it from the bottle. You can't take just a sip from a 6-ounce serving, you'll waste the rest. I use a small amount to take my pills and the 6 ounce would be a waste. Sometimes I only want a few sips. Warning: Both machines are too tall to place under the upper cabinets in your kitchen unless you have an extra large space between upper and lower cabinets or you have a kitchen island with an outlet. This can be an important reason to buy a manual machine. Nothing against the Ninja. I'm sure it is right for some people. It all depends on personal preferences and available space and how you use the machine. It also depends on whether you just want fruity drinks (Ninja) or sodas like Pepsi or Root Beer in addition to fruity drinks (Sodastream). The Ninja may come up with soda flavors or not.
Both to much damn work for a soda
terra sucks, ninja has way too many parts
Thirsty - over-complicated and overpriced... 🙄
The ninja takes so dang long.
