Pros:
Cheep and very portable, this is the sole reason why you should get it.
Mine had a code for some promotional lite versions of vst synths, reason limited and a 50$ discount coupon for ableton software, some may find those useful.
Cons:
Keys are a little mushy which some may find quite uncomfortable, you'd wish it had scissor switches or something.

I suggest you set the velocity curve to hard, otherwise the velocity seems a little limited.
8-MONTHS-OF-USE-EDIT:
I'm afraid I can no longer recommend this product, it has a serious design flaw that would make me absolutely livid as it was the only thing I could use during my voyage.
You can push down on the keys topmost/bottommost and the whole key wont go down, only that side you pushed down, even leftmost/rightmost so some extent.
This may not seem like an issue, but it is.
To get consistent velocity you need to push on the keys dead centre, the above example simply shows the underlying cause. There's a reason all long keys on a computer keyboard have an additional hinge, it is to avoid this issue.
If the nanokey had vertical rails at the bottom and top points this issue wouldn't exist.
I guess I'll be physically adding this myself.
The bundled software is quite apologetic though.
Reason Limited (one of the best limited version daws I've used, still limited though), Ableton live 50$ coupon, AAS analogue, strum, Rhodes session (not very useful), korg m1 LE (useful for sounds of that era), ezdrummer lite, (useful) and UVI Digital Synsations (useful, retail price is $199.00)
19-MONTHS-OF-USE-EDIT:
After, on the side, using the akai lpk 25 for around a year and modifying it to decrease the deadzone greatly, I'm considering buying another nanokey, for much faster and more comfortable very fast monophonic triggering of notes.
