They're cheap, but they charge for everything, including water, snacks, and carry on items that don't fit underneath the seat in front of you. They also apparently don't have priority for gates at airports, as I've had to wait for over half an hour for a gate to clear after landing on a OAK-LAS flight (a <90 minute flight). This may have changed, but they also didn't do precheck a few years ago. Oh, and expect to hear about their credit card offer during the flight. You can get a spirit points voucher for applying today, and can leave the application with your flight attendant as you leave the plane. That being said, they do get you from point A to B relatively cheaply, as long as you're willing to live with the constraints of a low cost carrier.
