Hi Mree. The Keurig doesn't make lattes, but the Tassimo does. From past experience I can tell you they are quite good. But we decided to go with the Keurig because it's easier to find coffee for it. The Tassimo discs can only be found at Bed Bath and Beyond or sometimes at Target. Of course they have a subscription service... We love our Keurig. We are not into fancy coffees.
I've tried all of the infernal machines. First there was the Senseo. Cool concept, pods available in the supermarket, abysmal coffee. It became a counter ornament pretty quickly. Then we got the Tassimo by Braun. Loved the coffee, especially when they came out with Starbucks pods. And it can make milk-based drinks like Chai, latte, and hot chocolate, although the cream pods are kind of icky once they get a little old. But the downside was the interminable wait for the thing to heat up, and the amount of excess water it dripped out of the pod after the coffee was done brewing, and into the reservoir tray below. If you didn't empty it every morning, it would overflow. Next came the Nespresso. My favorite. I keep it turned on and at the ready all the time, and when I pop a capsule in and push the button, I have a fabulous espresso or lungo cup in seconds. The downside is you can only order the capsules online or by phone from Nespresso, so I usually order hundreds at a time. Upside - they ship in a day. I have a Nespresso in both houses. And I recently bought a Keurig for Massachusetts because DH hated the small cups the Nespresso made; he's a Venti kind of guy.

So I picked up a Keurig with coupons at Bed, Bath & Beyond for about ninety bucks. I love it. I also keep it at the ready and turned on all the time, and the variety of coffees is staggering. You can even make spiced apple cider, green and black teas, and half lemonade/half tea for icing. Best of all, you can get the K-cups everywhere - the supermarket, BB&B, Target, Sam's club, BJ's, gourmet shops. I love Tully's Espresso and Italian Roast the best.
But DH was still missing his Starbucks, so I got a revamped Tassimo by Bosch for the Massachusetts house for him.

I have to say, it's a vast improvement over the Braun unit, doesn't leak, and is much much faster at heating and brewing.
So I have three different machines on the counter in Mass. and two different machines on the counter in Florida, and a dinosaur in the cabinet. :shame:
