Keurig or Tassimo

I was thinking o getting a keurig or tassimo coffie maker. I like lattes the best. I do enjoy a good cup of coffie.
The reason I was thinking of getting one is that I love the lattes and I stop at starbucks probably a couple of times a week.
My two kids get a chocolate milk. (Nice drive through) especially w/2 kids. $$. Anyway I would like one that does multiple coffie drinks especially the iced lattes.
Thanks in advance

What can I do next?

I stopped sing my tassimo machine because it was getting too hard to find good chices of flavors at a decent price. We are pretty Starbucks loyal so I was sad to lose their coffees, but even the chocies at Target went down to only Maxwell house, no thanks.

My brother in Holland has had both and now has a Nespresso and says he likes that one the best, but they are also the most expensive.

I love my Keurig. The pods are pricy but not like buying coffee at Starbucks on a daily basis.

My friend has the refillable pod and puts ground Starbucks in it and brews it at home - delicious!

IDK about the Tassimo, but my mom's 2nd Keurig just died on her (even after de-scaling it and taking extra special care of it).
She has had it about 6 months. The 1st one lasted about 9 months. :(

So I can't recommend it.

My aunt and uncle have a super nice (expensive) specialty coffee maker...I will see if she will respond to a email. Are you wanting to brew espresso?

I adore my Keurig- but as much as I love it- if you are a latte girl, neither a Keurig or a Tassimo isn't going to create what you want. If you really want coffee and lattes, I would suggest a machine that does all three and uses the Nespresso pods.

I have had my keurig since they introduced it at the phila home show. (many years ago) It is the original one and still working :) I have a green mountain coffee delivery every 3 months. They have coffees, teas, hot chocolates, iced teas.... all kinds of options. I am sure they would have lattes. Maybe you can check out their website.

I just went through this as my Senseo coffemaker died. Which I loved but the company changed hands and it seems like people hate the Senseo now. I like a variety when I have coffee and the Keurig has more choices. You can also make iced coffee, tea and hot chocolate with the Keurig and I don't think you can with the Tassimo. The cups are not all that expensive if you buy the larger packs. I believe when I did the math it came out to about 60 cents a cup way better than going to Starbucks! I've had my Keurig for a few weeks and I love, love it. I shopped around and found the best price at QVC.

I have a Keurig. I am not sure how you would make a latte with it-- don't you have to have espresso for a latte? In that case, you'd need an espresso machine, I think.
