I knew it was kind of a waste of money, but it also makes a great big mess.
So, I got this after seeing the Superbowl commercial for it. After seeing and using the product, I really just feel ashamed of having made the purchase. First off, it's cheap. Just lightweight plastic with pieces that seem like they only fit together. It wouldn't have surprised me to find this sold for $15 at Target or something. But I paid $80 for it. I guess someone has to cover their multi-million dollar ad slots. Then I used it. and it sprayed a third of the contents of the bottle all over the place. And I think that's how it supposed to work -- the valve on the top opens once there's enough pressure and it just kind of sprays the contents all over the place. Then you remove it and it sprays more all over the place. Granted I didn't read any instructions (assuming there were any), but I want a full bottle of soda water! If you own a $500 Margaritaville margarita maker, and you are happy with it and thought it was a sensible purchase, then this product is for you. For everyone else, just save yourself the trouble of throwing it away after it's sat unused in your cupboard for 3 years by not buying it in the first place.
