Disadvantages of Lazy?

Question

I recently started using Lazy throughout my application, and I was wondering if there are any obvious negative aspects that I need to take into account when using Lazy<

Answer 1

As with anything, Lazy can be used for good or for evil, hence a disadvantage: when used inappropriately, it can cause confusion and frustration. However, lazy initialization pattern has been around for years, and now that .NET BCL has an implementation developers don't need to reinvent the wheel yet again. What's more, MEF loves Lazy.
