How we mapped the profiles: our water experts tasted the waters and placed them on a five-step bubble scale, using producer descriptions and published specifications as supporting context. This is a practical taste guide, not a laboratory test. The bottled set is limited to plain, unsweetened waters found at a Singapore online mart in August 2026.
Easy everyday sparkle
Choose Slightly for a softer glass.
If you enjoy the calmer feel of S.Pellegrino, VOSS or evian Sparkling, HydroSpark+ on Slightly is the natural place to begin.
Crisp, lively fizz
Choose Strongly when bubbles matter.
If Perrier, Gerolsteiner or a crisp can is more your speed, Strongly gives each fresh glass a firmer carbonation bite.
Change your mind tomorrow
One machine, both kinds of sparkle.
A bottle locks you into the profile chosen at the factory. HydroSpark+ lets you pour Slightly with lunch and Strongly after a workout—from the same clean RO-filtered water.

Packaging weight is a directional estimate for the empty primary container; caps, labels and cartons are excluded. It uses representative weights of 21–30 g for PET, 13 g for an aluminium can and 200–450 g for glass, rather than a lab measurement of each branded pack.

Common questions
Choosing your sparkling water.
The bottle profiles are useful reference points. The bigger choice is whether you want one fixed bottle—or fresh, adjustable sparkle on tap.
Which sparkling water has the strongest bubbles?
Perrier and Gerolsteiner are the punchiest bottled references in this set. At home, HydroSpark+ on Strongly gives you a crisp, lively glass from a clean RO-filtered base—freshly made when you want it, rather than slowly losing fizz after a bottle is opened.
Which sparkling water has the gentlest bubbles?
S.Pellegrino, VOSS and evian Sparkling sit at the gentler end of the bottled set. HydroSpark+ on Slightly takes that easy-drinking direction and adds the convenience of a fresh chilled glass on demand.
Do sparkling-water brands actually taste different?
Yes—but different does not automatically mean better. Bottled mineral waters carry a fixed taste from their source and mineral mix. HydroSpark+ starts from clean, neutral RO-filtered water, so the fresh sparkle—and whatever you pair it with—gets to take centre stage.
What is the best sparkling water brand?
The best choice depends on what you value. Choose a bottle when you specifically want that spring's fixed mineral profile. Put HydroSpark+ on your shortlist when you want fresh chilled sparkling water on tap, two bubble settings and no cartons to carry, store or recycle.
Can HydroSpark+ reproduce these bottled waters?
HydroSpark+ is not trying to copy an imported bottle—and that is the advantage. A bottled water is locked to one source, one mineral profile and one carbonation style. HydroSpark+ makes chilled sparkling water fresh from a four-stage RO-filtered base and lets you switch between Slightly and Strongly from one glass to the next. A bottle cannot match that clean, adjustable, on-demand experience.
Does HydroSpark+ add minerals to the water?
No. HydroSpark+ does not add minerals back after filtration. Its four-stage RO system is designed to remove most dissolved solids, including many mineral salts, for a clean and neutral-tasting base. Mineral taste is subjective, and food—not drinking water—is the principal source of minerals in the human diet; water may contribute supplemental amounts depending on its source.
How current are the bottled-water prices?
We checked every FairPrice reference on 11 August 2026. Use the table to compare the real cost per litre and the calculator to see what your habit adds up to; follow the retailer link before buying because promotions and stock can change.
Are Singapore container deposits included in the comparison?
Refundable Beverage Container Return Scheme deposits are kept separate, so they do not make the bottled-water habit look more expensive than it is. The calculator assumes eligible containers are returned.
RO and nutrition context: the US EPA describes reverse osmosis as removing dissolved solids and salts; the World Health Organization describes diet as the principal source of nutrients and minerals, with drinking water providing supplemental amounts in some cases.
The meaningful difference
A profile in a bottle, or a setting you can change.
Bottled mineral water gives you one source, one mineral signature and one carbonation style. HydroSpark+ gives you a consistent RO-filtered base and lets you choose Slightly or Strongly each time you pour.
