The official Ninja THIRSTi Drink System "WC1001 Series" Owner's Guide (© 2023 SharkNinja Operating LLC), fetched via ManualsLib, confirms this exact model and its specs: TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS "120V~, 60Hz / 55 Watts" (powered=true), a screw-in 60L CO2 canister installed by "turning it to the right until tight" and released by twisting left (co2AttachmentType=screw-in, co2CylinderCapacityLiters=60), three sparkling levels (Low/Medium/High → fizzLevelSettings=3), automatic Flavored Water Drops dosing via the Flavor Carriage (builtInFlavorDosing=true), plain-water-only carbonation (carbonatesBeyondWater=false), and hand-wash-only reservoir with only the drip tray dishwasher-safe (dishwasherSafeBottle=false). The BrickSeek listing independently confirms the model as "Ninja Thirsti Drink System Black WC1001" (UPC 622356601870), the 60L cartridge, and states "MSRP: $149.99" — the US MSRP used here. The manufacturer's live ninjakitchen.com WC1001 page now redirects to the successor "Ninja Thirsti Ultimate" WC3001BL2 (2 sizes, $179.99, a different model), so the WC1001 owner's guide serves as the manufacturer source; a fetched HSN retailer listing separately corroborated the WC1001's four drink sizes (6/12/18/24oz) and 48oz reservoir.
