The pros and cons of a quadrupedal human over a bipedal one?

Assuming a human had 4 legs and could perfectly use them for walking(they are a bit like centaurs,who have the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse). Would they have any advantages over normal bipedal humans? What kind of disadvantages would they suffer from?

I would assume that they would be more stable than bipedal humans and that they would be able to move faster than humans. However they would probably be bigger than normal humans due to the 4 legs, bending down to pick up stuff on the floor would be a hell and they probably don't have feet(I can't imagine a four legged creature with feet) and instead have hooves.
