Reliability would be my worry too.
My Sonos setup is more reliable than the Chromecast audio I have that feeds into it. Both are a bit flaky.
This is in a house with three WAPs giving rock solid coverage.
When Sonos is configured correctly, which takes a while and some undocumented fiddling, it gives me reliability of about 97% over interactions (one out thirty times I ask it to do something it annoys me, per "listening session".) The Chromecast is more like 85% which is way too low.
I think that in a smaller house with a single WAP and a basic network topology that might be better. But that isn't your situation, I think?
