Pros
Pro Nice design
Origin is another company that has also been able to jam capable hardware is a sleek design with the red O on the tower that it just can't help remind you of a certain super computer in an older film. Regardless, it looks really nice.
Pro Upgradable
Like many listed, this Steam Machine can be upgraded to the desired specs that you'd like to see inside during production, and what you'd like to replace inside when it's time for an upgrade.
Pro Vertical position
May seem as an odd thing to mark as a pro but if you look at this like a console, it can be placed alongside your Wii U or Xbox 360 and still have space for more systems in the future.
Cons
Con No SteamOS
Some people like using Linux for their gaming and other casual usage like Youtube, Google, Amazon, and others. But, this option is not available on the Chronos and thus you're stuck to choosing Windows while configuring your system. It can be installed when you get it, but it would be nice if you didn't really need to have to do that. Plus, it's a cheaper OS option to go with versus Windows.
Con Heat
There have been some tests relating to heat and it doesn't seem to be doing so well reaching some high degrees compared to the other small form factors.
Con Another expensive machine
It shouldn't be a surprise due to the company behind this product is known to having high quality products with a high quality price tag. The base model reaches to $1268 before checkout. Of course if the base model without lights inside doesn't cut it, you can always upgrade from the website adding the price higher and higher.
