The oxo does have a stainless steel filter, but basically everyone uses aero press filters in the oxo, or cuts other filter papers to size. Metal filters suck for actually filtering out fine particles and since this brewer excels in brewing espresso-like strong small cups, you tend to grind pretty fine which exacerbates all those issues.
The aero press is the bombproof, foolproof, simple man's brewer that makes consistently good coffee. Its literally 3 pieces of plastic. The oxo is the more capable, but likely less reliable and more "complex" brewer. It has pieces that screw together, it has a small, inaccessible gasket that will undoubtedly die eventually, and the plastic generally feels more susceptible to damage if you were to drop it or crush it while traveling.

I've already got an aeropress, but will be interesting to see how this compares.

I now have two of these Rapid brewers, and use them daily. They are more forgiving of grind than even Aeropress, which was already off-the-hook forgiving, more forgiving of steep times, and even water temperatures. That is to say if you stick to the basics this yields dynamite cups consistently, better than manual pourover and Aeropress.
There's still some room for grind adjustment, grind dose, water dose, steep, but your changes will more subtle in the cup. It somehow finds the best profile you give it, and delivers.
The current soup craze was essentially started by the aeropress, since it delivers similar results to the Rapid Brewer, so some users have been souping much longer than it was called that, but no worries, coffee fads come and go. Speaking of which, if you like cold brew, this thing rocks cold brew like no other brewer, makes cold brew I can actually drink. Double your dose, run cold water through it, bingo! Best cold brew ever.
This brewer and Kin K6 grinder, pry from my cold dead hands.
