At home on the weekends I'll use the aeropress if I have plans and am likely to be out of the apt, but use the chemex if people are coming for breakfast or if I'm just hanging around and am likely to drink a few cups.
Aeropress is more versatile, more consistent, and very fast.
Chemex is more enjoyable for me in terms of the routine/ritual, is very pleasing to look at, and brews more coffee at once.
In terms of final result, either one is a good choice as they both make great coffee. Aeropress a bit more idiot proof.
