SodaStream® Singapore's three sparkling water makers use different mechanisms, and that difference matters more than most buyers realise before they choose. Terra is built for simplicity. E-Terra is built for effortless daily use. Art is built to be seen.
This guide compares all three on mechanism, ease of use, design and who each one suits best, so the right choice is obvious by the time you finish reading. All three do the same core job well. They turn tap water into fresh sparkling water or soft drinks in seconds, cut down on single-use plastic, and give you full control over what goes into your glass. What changes between them is how you get there. If you are wondering whether a sparkling water maker is worth it, the short answer is yes, but which one is right depends on how you will use it.

The SodaStream® Terra
The Terra is SodaStream®'s best-selling maker, and it earns that spot by keeping things straightforward. Press the button, hold it down, and plain tap water turns into fresh sparkling water or soft drinks in seconds. No electricity, no settings to learn, no manual to read twice.
It is the maker we would point first-time buyers to. If you want fizzy water at the best entry price, without extra features to think about, Terra does the job well. It also suits budget-conscious buyers, where keeping costs down matters more than added functions.
The Terra carries an iF Design Award, comes in BPA-free bottles, and works with every SodaStream® CO2 cylinder and drink mix in the range, from the Classics to the Zeros.
The SodaStream® E-Terra
The E-Terra removes the one manual step Terra still asks of you. Tap the button, and the machine carbonates on its own, no pressing, no holding, no guesswork. Choose from three carbonation settings, and every glass comes out exactly the way you set it, every time.
This is the maker for households that entertain often, pouring round after round for guests without the carbonation level drifting between glasses. It also suits family members who find a manual lever or button awkward to operate, making it a genuinely accessible option.
E-Terra shares the same award-winning design language as Terra, and the same CO2 cylinder and bottle ecosystem. The only real difference is how the fizz gets made.
The SodaStream® Art
The Art is the odd one out, deliberately. Instead of a button, it uses a lever, a satisfying, tactile push that carbonates your water with a retro flourish. No batteries, no plug, just a mechanism built to be seen and felt.
This is the maker for anyone who wants their sparkling water maker to double as an aesthetically pleasing design piece on the counter, not just live in a cupboard between uses.
Same CO2 cylinders. Same bottles. Same drink mixes. Just a different way of getting there, and a different look while you do it.
Which One Should You Buy?
Deciding which SodaStream® maker to buy really comes down to picking the one that matches how you live, not which is objectively better.
Want the simplest option at the best price? Terra. Want effortless carbonation, every single time? E-Terra. Want a design statement on the counter? Art.
Whichever you choose, you are not choosing between capability or drink quality. All three run on the same CO2 cylinder system, take the same reusable bottles, and open the door to the full range of drink mixes, from a low-sugar Cola to a fruity Passionfruit. The choice comes down to mechanism and aesthetics, not what you can make with it. Only original SodaStream® CO2 cylinders are warrantied for safety, where every cylinder follows ISO standards to be santized before being refilled, and each cylinder is trackable by a serial number. However you carbonate, that part stays consistent across all three makers.
Where to Get It in Singapore
All three makers, along with the full range of CO2 cylinders, reusable bottles and drink mixes, are available at over 30 retail partners across Singapore, and online at sodastream.sg, as well as popular marketplaces like Shopee and Lazada.
