I have a 2015 Honda Civic LX with almost 624000km. I remember hearing about the CVT discussions and I was worried but my car is still going. Newer CVT are much better than my model.

Pros: still going at 624000km, reliable
Cons: newer models better
Vehicle: Honda Civic
Mileage: 624000 km

Honda's cvts are more reliable than their turbo engines and wayyyyy better than Nissan's cvt where no matter how much you baby the trans, it still has a decent chance to die early

Pros: more reliable than turbo engines, much better than Nissan CVT

They are Ok if your ok getting less then 300k out of your Honda. They can last a decent amount of time but take way more maintenance then a standard Automatic. The truth is they will never be as robust and reliable as standard Automatic with a torque converter. Once the belt snaps its basically fucked too.

Pros: decent compared to other CVTs
Cons: less than 300k lifespan, more maintenance, less robust than standard auto, expensive to repair if be

Pros: good engines that will last
Cons: CVTs are absolute garbage
