We have Kureg at work, and Tassimo at home. Our work Kureg is dying, so I bought a Tassimo to replace it. My reasons in order:
- Price. Got the brewer for $60 (Staples door crasher Saturday), and the Discs are generally cheaper. I can get Maxwell house for 37¢ per disc without going out of my way.
- I am not a coffee snob. Like Dennis Leary- I like "coffee flavoured" coffee.
- Brewing size. "The barcode brews it better" is a bit of a lie. The barcode tells the machine how much water to add; based on the strength of the disc. So I can buy discs that make a 16 oz coffee
- Tim Hortons T-discs. Yes, I like Tim Hortons coffee. Now I don't need to go outside to go get one.
That all being said, there's nothing wrong with the Kureg system. I'd say either would be fine.
