I love it. I think it would be pretty awesome to have a drink fountain for home.
Not sure I could get the wife approval on that....
Just get a drinkmate, you can buy sryups online. Easiest way to have fresh soda.
That seems like the same thing as soda stream, which is far more popular where I am.
I don't want soda stream, I also don't want this drink mate thing. Far too manual to make soda when I want it.
With an actual soda fountain: I set it up, and beyond refilling the supplies every few months or so, I wouldn't need to think about it or do anything... Just fill up my cup and go.
Depending on where you live you could go the route of premixed product. You just need fridge big enough for a tank and a set of taps mounted on top. You serve it like beer, bonus is you can easily switch to beer.
