Thoughts on drip assist devices? (self.coffee)

I'd like to experiment with a drip assist tool. Currently looking at Melodrip vs Hario v60 drip assist. The Hario is much cheaper, and I like the idea of not having to tie up both hands. Of note, I have been using less of my Chemex and more of the Orea big boy for multicup brews. It looks close, but I think the Hario drip assist might fit on big boy without falling in. Do you all think that these drip assists will have a bigger or smaller impact on these bigger multicup brews? Is channeling a real concern with the Hario and a bigger brew bed? What if I just rotate it between pours? How much are you adjusting grind size for these?

Hario could be more popular because Hario, not sure though. I'll ask said coworker if he has experience with other devices (pretty sure he dailies a V60).

As for faffery levels: yes, if that is your cup of tea (ha), that slightly changes things of course. ;)
