Has anyone switched to make their own (Sodastream / Soda Maker)? (discuss.tchncs.de)

I'm wondering about your experience with them:

Have they replaced your seltzer/soda buying?
How much do you use your equipment?
Where do you get your CO_2 refilled and how much does it cost?
What flavorings do you use and which are your favorite?
What equipment did you buy and do you recommend it?

Paying extra for convenience is not "getting fucked over". I was letting OP and others know that it doesn't need to be so complicated. Their question was a very basic "does anyone else use SodaStream?" They don't even own a machine yet and you are selling a totally custom solution for refills.

That is a very good price, though.

I read the rest of the comments and OPs replies before I wrote mine, and there was a lot of back and forth about using a large tank to either refill or directly run the unit. I thought I'd better add some caveats on how to use it so OP was aware of issues with tanks.
