Cons
Con Have to manually tell it when you go to sleep
This doesn't work as seamlessly as sleep trackers in wearables, like Fitbit trackers. It doesn't record your sleep time, you have input when you go to sleep and when you wake up, which makes it far less useful.
Con Requires outside file viewer to wake up to music
In order to choose a song on the SD card, a file viewer is required.
Con 12-hour input
A "pro" if you're familiar with traditional clock input, but may be problematic if you're used to digital clocks.
Con Single alarm time
Good if you wake up at the same time, or used to set a different wake-up time every day.
