Questions about Aarke Sparkling Water Maker

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. As already given here as an answer: https://www.galaxus.ch/de/s2/QuestionAndAnswer/unabhaengig-von-der-sicherheit-ich-habe-gesehen-dass-es-nun-auch-passende-glasflaschen-von-sodapop-g-171059

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.

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.

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