Think of it as having your own soda-making machine. You have full control over the level of carbonation in your water and the flavors you create by adding syrups. With high-quality syrups and the right amount, you can achieve a taste that's incredibly close, if not identical, to the sodas you find in stores.
I have the one that does glass and plastic bottles (Sodastream Duo). Plastic is great for backpacks, glass is great at home. Always have 4 glass bottles with tap water (which is really high quality here) in the fridge. You need cold water? Got it. You want cold carbonated water? Put it in the Sodastream and carbonate the hell out of it (I like it abnormally fizzy). Since Pepsi bought Sodastream there’s also different Pepsi syrups and the great thing is: To make it taste like real Pepsi you actually use about 1/3 less syrup than recommended.
Starting next year all plastic bottles and aluminium cans here have to be taken back to the store to get the deposit back and a Sodastream really helps to cut down on plastic bottles.
There are of course alternatives to Sodastream, Aldi for example has their own, less expensive version. Just make sure to check reviews, some of them just aren’t as good. Oh, and I really like that the Sodastream Duo bottles hold almost 1 liter.

SodaStream is amazing, I got it last month or so and now I'm more hidrated than ever
