Two convenient ways to exchange your empty carbonators!

When your carbonator runs out of gas, you need an EXCHANGE carbonator. SodaStream takes back the empty ones to return to our filling facility where we clean, inspect, and refill them. When your carbonator runs out of gas, you have two convenient options to exchange it for a full one.

Visit a local retailer!
Bring your empty carbonator to any participating local retailer that stocks exchange carbonators. Bed Bath & Beyond, the Bon-Ton family of stores, Sur La Table, and Williams-Sonoma are national retailers that carry exchange carbonators. The retailer will sell you a full one for the price of the gas contents only. Most retail locations carry the 14.5oz. (60L) exchange carbonators only. (All retailers will accept returns of the 130L size, however; they may be exchanged on a one-to-one basis for a full 60L carbonator at the regular retail price.)

Order your exchange carbonators online!
You will receive your shipment of full carbonators along with a pre-paid UPS return box. Simply pack up your empties in the pre-paid return box and take it to any UPS dropbox or pick-up location. Your sodastream.com order for exchange carbonators will provide specific instructions on how to return the empties via UPS.
