I'm guessing you're a 3v brewer, otherwise you'd have a pulley system :)
Let the pulley never be mentioned again!!
My pulley from the biab days was involved in a loud accident last night :ph34r:

It involved lifting a half full HLT off milk crates....
 
Ok, here is a disadvantage of no-chilling:

When I no chilled, I'd leave it in the cube for a week or so at times, out of the sheer laziness of having to trnsf etc.
Now that I do chill, the pitching and everything is all done and dusted by the end of the day and come next weekend I have a new brew. Without fail.

Anyway, thats what it has done to me.

In terms of difference between slow chilling and pure no-chill, the hop effect is simply outstanding. No faffing about with dry or cube hope required to compensate for no chill. I you can't chill, I would highly recommend slow chill. Mine was down to 25ish within the hour.
