That would be Robust.
Looking at both of them, personally I don't think I would like the membrane type control pad on the Nova. I don't care how tough it is when it's new, over the buttons is going to crack and chip with time. The nerd in me likes the controls, but the practical side of me thinks the Laguna controls will be better over time.
My argument against the Laguna is the extremely lousy customer service I've heard about for the entire 16+ years I've been on WN. Unless they've done a 180 recently, I'd be leery of them.
IF they have improved their CS, then with only looking at the specs and demo videos, I'd go with Laguna. I've always been impressed with the quality of their tools, but the lack of CS has kept me from owning anything from them.
BTW, for reference, I've got an American Beauty, so my views may be skewed a little.
"73 is the best number because it's the 21st prime number, and it's mirror 37 is the 12th prime number, whose mirror 21 is the product of 7 times 3. Also in binary 73 is 1001001, which is a palindrome." - Nobel Laureate, Dr. Sheldon Cooper
