    Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought I read that their factory is actually built in occupied territory.

    It’s the reason I’ve always refused to but one.

      Nah the factory in the West Bank was closed about nine years ago. So you’ll be happy to know Palestinians in the West Bank have a longer commute and have to pass through a lot of security checks if they want to work for Sodastream.

      So you can buy a Sodastream with a clean conscious. Unless even employing Palestinians is somehow wrong. Which people will find a way to rationalize because everyone knows that people who have a decent job are less likely to fire rockets at Israel, and we want that to continue forever, right?

        Yep, this is how I do it. I bought a tank adapter online and just get a professional CO2 tank refilled at the local beverage gas shop.

        Also, get the glass water containers, they last indefinitely.
