NO. The SodaStream Crystal has glass bottles, but swallows them during filling in a locked metal safety container. In addition, the glass bottles do not fit mechanically into the open filler. Whether it's Aarke or SodaStream. I would have preferred to use the more stylish Crystal glass bottles, but they don't fit. Anyway, the Aarke bottles with stainless steel bottoms are as pretty as safety allows. We wouldn't want to switch from this appliance to the clunky SodaStream ones again.

I got the version with 2013 on. After owning it for 2 years, i can only advise you not to buy this product. It has great looks (witch become disgusting if u keep it in the kitchen) and is very poorly designed in terms of functionality.

We are in contact with the supplier. There is a chance that we can offer it in the first quarter of 2021. But we can not guarantee that and are still waiting for some information.

Yes, one bottle is included.

Unfortunately, we can only offer the product in gold, copper, black and silver.

No. Only the plastic bottles are available.

Yes, it is the Aarke Carbonator II.

The unit is black matt.

No, there is no gas bottle included, I ordered a set with 2 gas bottles.

Hello, Looked at it quickly too and found this. The Carbonator II is the second generation of the machine and launched in September 2018. Aesthetically it looks the same as the first generation, but our engineers have updated many internal components to make the machine even more robust and smoother. In addition, our packaging has been revised to make the machine safer during transport. Therefore, I also think !!!! Is only the price !!!! https://www.aarke-usa.com/products/aarke-carbonator-ii-stainless-steel I have the Aarke Water Maker 1 and I am very enthusiastic about this device. No problems, easy handling, quick replacement of the CO2 bottle.

Unfortunately, no.

Antwort Customer Service : On the website [hier auf Galaxus] it looks like Carbonator 2 since copper and brass were never made for Carbonator 1. It is no difference, just some internal improvements which increases quality. But if you are using your C1 correctly you won’t notice the difference.

For manufacturers, shipping and customs costs are also added. These should not be underestimated.

According to our information, screwing it in is quite easy. And it is correct that you push the lever down for the bubbling process. The volume is a rather subjective issue, some of our employees find it quite loud. But the manufacturer has a video where you can otherwise hear how loud the machine is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IljwReGRPLQ

I don't see any difference to the "previous" CB II bubblers. The Aarke website does not say anything about this either.

Unfortunately not, no.

No, unfortunately we do not offer the glass bottles.
