Kindle just works. My Nook is getting a little flaky and I will probably go back to Kindle. I just have to decide if the page turn buttons are worth as much to me as Amazon thinks they are.
You don't have to customize. I have in the past, but the few customizations I desired, have, over time, become part of the UI. Other than side-loading a couple favorite fonts, my Kobo is stock.

Kobo just works as well as Kindle just works.

Better, for my purposes. As in, with Kobo, I can easily go to left justification for side-loaded content when I read on a larger font at night. With Kindle, I'd have to a) convert the book to KFX, then b) connect the reader to the computer for transfer. With Kobo, a quick two taps accomplishes this ON THE DEVICE!

That all said, there's no sync to different devices for sideloaded content with Kobo. For that, Kindle reigns supreme.
