Pros

Pro
No need for a separate tool

Chrome comes with DevTools baked in. So if Chrome is used for development and it fills the need, there's no need for a separate tool.

Cons

Con
Limited to the box model of elements

DevTools only displays measurements of the HTML element's box that means that it can't measure, for example, relative to text's baseline or objects within a canvas element.

Does not measure distance between elements

DevTools measure dimensions of HTML elements only.
