AIO vs Wine Pump

[Christopher Anderson]

To all you knowledgeable humans out there. I am debating whether to buy a AIO system or a Wine Pump. Now that this "newbie" has 30+ carboys filled with wine (over the last 2 years), it is time to advance.
I could pump from the carboy into a fermentation bucket with a valve to fill the bottles or use a pump top move from one carboy to another. But using an AIO, how do you move wine into a bucket? The bucket would be used to add k-meta or whatever before filling the bottles. Of course, I could move from one carboy to another and add the k-meta and other additives to another carboy and then bottle from the new one.

Why move it to a bucket and add all that additional oxygen to it ?

I will transfer using the allinone,to filter or just to make sure that the wine is entirely consistent and add any additional chemicals to the receiving carboy on the floor. Then I am able to bottle while standing or sitting at a table, without lifting a full carboy.
