Cons
Con Lowercase "i" and lowercase "l" looks the same
Consolas is one of those fonts that has the same lowercase "i" and lowercase "l" (except the dot of course). The problem with this is that in some languages such as Turkish, there is a dotless i, which means lowercase ı (dotless ı) and lowercase L looks exactly the same (albeit in different font sizes). This means two letters look the same (which does not make sense for a font).
Con Not a bitmap font
Consolas is not a bitmap font: http://www.fontpalace.com/font-details/Consolas/
