Ninja Thirsti Drink System, Soda Maker, Create Unique Sparkling & Still Drinks, Personalize Size & Flavor, Carbonated Water Machine, 60L CO2 Cylinder & Variety of Flavored Water Drops, Black WC1001

I’ve been using the Ninja Thirsti Drink System since November 2024, and it has quickly become one of my favorite kitchen gadgets. If you enjoy sparkling water or flavored drinks, this system is definitely worth considering.First, it’s incredibly convenient. With the push of a button, I can make fresh sparkling water at home—no more lugging bottles from the store or dealing with plastic waste. The flavor cartridges work really well, delivering just the right amount of taste without being overpowering or artificial. There’s also a decent variety of flavors available, and I like that I can control the intensity of both carbonation and flavor.The CO2 refills are reasonably priced and last a good while, especially if you’re mostly using the system for personal or family use. Over time, I’ve noticed I’m saving both money and time compared to buying cans and bottles regularly. That makes it not just a fun gadget, but a cost-efficient one too.Overall, the Ninja Thirsti is a great option for anyone who wants an easy, eco-friendly way to enjoy sparkling and flavored drinks at home. It delivers on what it promises and fits seamlessly into a modern kitchen routine. Highly recommend!

I've been totally happy with my purchase. I've had it a few months, and the low CO2 warning just recently came on. It's in regular use by 3 people. My 12-year old probably uses it the most. It was a big hit while entertaining over the holidays! I ordered replacement canisters through Ninja on January 14th, just a couple of days after the warning light came on. They arrived the 19th. It's now the 30th, and I still haven't needed to put in a new canister. The lowest carbonation setting is just fine for me. My sample flavor pack had two vitamin flavors, one energy (caffeinated), and one hydrate with electrolytes. All are sweetened with sucralose, which I dislike. I wish it had included at least one unsweetened option. I don't think I'll be purchasing the Thirsti brand flavor cartridges. They're convenient, but I don't think they're worth the cost. The great thing about the home machine is you can truly customize. Maybe you want to get away from sugary drinks, but you're not on the soda water bandwagon. You can mix your carbonated water into fruit juice or soda to start acclimating to less sugar. It's also simple to purchase any brand of flavor drops to mix into your drink, and if you want sweetener you can use any kind and amount you like! I don't even bother with the flavoring most of the time. Just the carbonation is good enough for me! We were constantly buying bottles and cans of soda water for our household. It was taking up a lot space! I love having this machine instead. I've even reused disposable empties to take my "fizzy water" on the go. It's easy to position even a narrow bottle opening under the dispensing spout. Using cold water is recommended. The reservoir comes with a cold water indicator, which I eventually removed. It didn't seem like it was turning as blue after a couple months of use. I deemed it unnecessary anyway, and possibly a place for bacteria to grow. You can store the water reservoir in the fridge, but I don't because my refrigerator already has a water pitcher spot. Using ice works great, too.

Loving this soda machine, I wanted to cut out soda but was missing the carbonation. So I ordered this and it's amazing. So many drink flavors to choose from, easy to use, you can choose how strong the drink flavors are and choose how much carbonation is in your drink. So far this has been saving me money in soda and I don't feel so bad from drinking it since they have zero sugar. Love the machine and definitely recommend.

The Ninja Thirsti system itself is fantastic—easy to use, slick design, and perfect for making both sparkling and still drinks on demand. The carbonation works great, and I love being able to control the flavor strength and portion size. That said, some of the flavor pods have a bit of a strange aftertaste that didn’t quite hit the mark for me. If Ninja improves the flavor profiles, this would easily be a 5-star setup. Still, it’s a great addition to the kitchen for anyone trying to drink more water without the waste of bottled drinks.

I absolutely love my Ninja Thirsti and use it every single day. The flavor options are fantastic, with plenty of variety and the ability to mix and match for custom combinations. I genuinely miss it when I’m away from home. That said, the canisters are a bit pricey and can be hard to find. I’ve tried other brands, but they don’t perform nearly as well as Ninja’s own.

I bought two of these one for work and one for home . The one at work Works decent . The mixing chamber will drip a little bit but overall I'm happy with it . The one at home severely drips ! I put a paper towel under it and you can see from the photo what it does . At first I thought it might have been a defective Cola pod but it did it with root beer as well....... original review follows) took a while for Ninja to get into the carbonated water thing . I really like this better than the Sodastream. I'll see in the long run how the syrups will last though. It works with the blue SodaStream bottles as well. So I don't have to buy any new CO2 cartridges. I think the cost is a little higher than the Sodastream but the taste is definitely better and not as sweet. Overall it's a good carbonator.

The media could not be loaded. I drink a lot of seltzer water so I decided to invest in the Ninja Thirsti since I am a Ninja fan and have many of their small appliances. This machine did NOT disappoint. The seltzer is delicious and you have plenty of flavors to choose from. It’s easy to use, easy to clean, and easy to replace the CO2 tank. This machine can also fit in a smaller space as it is not wide. I provided a video to show how easy to use it is and the outcome!
