I have two Dolce Gusto Jovia machines along with the Nespresso. It is all a matter of personal preference and only you can decide nobody else can use your taste buds. For us, wife like's the Nespresso as I do but I prefer the Dolce Gusto for ease and speed of use.It is difficult to know which to buy but the way we did it was to visit our local Curry’s store where they have a demo counter.After several different coffee's and a long, long chat with the sales lady we decided on both.The Nespresso and one Dolce Gusto sit in the kitchen with the other DG sitting in the summer house, perfect combination.
