I've read A LOT of good reviews for this one. I have looked at coffee geek but am overwhelmed by the number of reviews.

OP back! Bought a nespresso pixie and aerochinno. LOVING IT. It's perfect for what I want--easy quick lattes!!! My husband said he has never seen me so excited about something I've bought. What can I say I love coffee!

I *think* semi auto means you are responsible for grinding the beans and tamping them in, and then the machine pulls the shot for you. Full manual means you would do everything (control the water as well) and superautomatic means the machine does everything for you.

If you want a semiautomatic, I'd head over to coffeegeek for advice, or you could try Seattle Coffee Gear-- they have good prices and are very helpful.

I want to buy one. I can't seem to find a good site for reviews. Prices vary wildly. I used to work in a coffee while in grad school so generally know how to use the equipment. I want to make lattes. Do you have one??? Any tips on selecting one??? THANK YOU!
