What happened

SodaStream CO2 cylinders with SODA-CLUB L-type valves are subject to a recall because the upper part of the valve may release and become ejected from the cylinder due to internal pressure, potentially causing injuries. These are 425-gram cylinders used with SodaStream machines and sold under various brand names including AGA Linde Gas, CBF Drinkit, SodaStream, Vikingsoda, Watercompany, and Ölbolaget. The affected valves are marked with "SODA-CLUB (CO 2) CE0038 L-250 BAR" engraved on them. The cylinders do not meet required safety standards for pressurized equipment.

Distributors and manufacturers began withdrawing this product from the market starting in November 2020 and continuing through December 2020. The product labeling varies depending on which filling operator most recently handled the cylinder, as these are part of an exchange system. The source document does not specify what action affected consumers should take with cylinders they currently possess.
