Fair, although moka pot coffee is indeed "espresso-like" more than espresso. They don't have the pressure to brew espresso the same way an actual espresso machine does. I think they make great coffee, particularly for Cuban-style cafe con leche, although nowadays I'd probably do that with my Aeropress because it's faster and can do a strong, espresso-like coffee pretty well. But it's still not espresso. :)
A Nespresso machine certainly isn't the pinnacle of coffee perfection -- I've just found that it makes a decent and very consistent espresso, lungo or Americano for me. There are times, particularly in the evening, when I just don't want to mess around with grinding and brewing, and I'd much rather have a Nespresso coffee drink than a Keurig one.
