What primarily separates the AeroPress from its competitors is its sheer versatility. You can achieve results very much like a pour-over, a French Press, or even something like an espresso, all with just one device. Even a pretty decent and quick cold brew is possible. Apart, the AeroPress is a uniquely good option for outdoor use and camping or hiking trips. It's made of hard-wearing plastic, and you can fit a manual grinder inside the unit itself.
