It's been a few years since I tried using it, so take this with a grain of salt, but my biggest gripe with it was that it would grind my computer (a beefy Dell) to a halt.
Of course, this depends on what sort of environment you're trying to replicate. If it's 2 to 3 microservices and a database, I would imagine it's fine, but anything more, which is what I had to deal with at the time, it was a no-go. Especially so since this meant that running minikube and having a RAM-thirsty IDE, like Intellij IDEA, was practically impossible.

Ram usage is a lot better when using docker as a driver instead of a vm, which immediately reserves all memory you give it.
