Pro's and Con's with no context is hard to answer. There's a great thread that has covered just about anything you could think of doing with a SCUT in the SCUT sub-forum.
Vague Pro's/Con's:
Pros: It's very capable and will do much of what the average large property (~1-5 acres) homeowner will need.
Cons: It's expensive, the ride to some is rough due to the tire size.

Welcome aboard!
Just hit 20 hours on my 2021 1025r TLB.
Little 'Jasiu has proven himself well as a hired hand. The loader lifts a full bucket of landscape stone or logs, the pallet forks move my 600 pound snowplow like it's nothing and the backhoe is digging out stumps and leveling out a mess of land. Today I got a chance to put on the Bxpanded toothbar before heading out to my current grading project. .
The limits so far are not of the tiny tractor but of the greenhorn operator. it's a challenge to learn how operate the controls smoothly and efficiently. Leveling land is a challenge as is grading with both the loader and the backhoe. And it's no Case 590 nor is it a mini ex so it certainly takes smaller bites and requires more relocating to use the backhoe. More fun time!
So far I haven't found any reason to regret my purchase given my smaller property with hills and tight clearances that mandate a small tractor with a lower CG.
Loving every second I get in the seat, which isn't enough!

After 5 years and 300 hours with mine, I would say it has proven to be quite a little workhorse.
The only negative is the ride when cutting grass. I keep the cutting speed down so as to not bruise my old kidneys.
I have a larger tractor for the heavy lifting, but the little Deere handles everything else with alacrity.
