Chromebooks are really only handy if:
1. You do everything remotely from the web.
2. You have an internet connection.
3. Love Google

I have a chromebook which I use for work. Also a Windows laptop (and my
desktop). The funny thing is I really hate Google Docs and so use the online
version of Office 365 when I'm on it. Surf the web, check email, etc. It's
much smaller and lighter than my laptop which is why I like it for work and
travel. I use my phone as a hotspot (T-Mobile) or a VZW hotspot for bad
signal areas.

Even though I prefer Windows I can still do most of my work strictly through
the Chrome browser.
