It has many advantages, although heavily constructed it can be drained an moved, it's easy to build no digging required, fairly inexpensive to build, easy cleaning no putting on your mucking boots and wading around in icy water. It also does have a few disadvantages as well, you are limited in size and shape, it will not draw the kind of wildlife that an in-ground pond does, and unless you are willing to run a pond heater over winter you will have to overwinter your plants and fish somewhere else.
