excellent product for a gift easy handling excellent image quality
This a wonderful product for its price range and moreover it's from Sony
Good product but does not play all size usb hard drives.
when I began to see that this product was available at a good price and that served me fully not what I thought and buy it immediately, I liked from the beginning, because it is wonderful to buy something you like and that in turn will be useful, widely recommend the use and purchase of the same, "eyes closed" amazon thanks for allowing me to have both product I wanted and expected!
I trust SONY products as much now, as when I first saw the name on a cassette tape recorder in the mid 70's.
Awesome blue ray player came with RCA cable so I could hook it up to my old TV and it plays everything!
Great Blu-ray player has both hdmi and analog outputs that allow me to connect to old and new televisions
This is an excellent blu-Ray player with a very small footprint as the size of a netbook that weights around 2 to 3 pounds and it will not occupy your room
We are buying a second blu-ray player or our old VHS/DVD combo that just died.
the Blu ray works great but the wifi has problems it doesn't always stay connected to the Internet especially when watching Netflix
This player was out on the market in 2012 and it price now should be very reasonable and believe me you will be in big pleasure surprised when you're using this little footprint to watch standard dvds and its draw dropping super clear and natural on it's playback images
great device, works great just like all good sony devices, top quality at an affordable price

Good price, good performance, and fits just right in my cabinet.
So this basic Blu ray player is doing everything it should, quite easily, and at a great price!
The PS3 had the fastest streaming speed, and that was through wifi clear across the other side of the house from the router.
This was my second experience with a Sony Blue-Ray disc player that supports Netflix and other media streaming.
Bought this unit from a Costco, chancing it, after reading many bad reviews, mostly about slow streaming or other network issues
Final verdict: If you want a fast Blu-ray player that can stream Pandora, Slacker Radio, YouTube, HuluPlus, and many other free streaming sites except Netflix, this may be the player for you.
Most other blu-ray units cost more, or you could spend a minimum of $50 for a dedicated streaming device like a Roku and not have a blu-ray player (and have an additional piece of equipment).
The update broke the unit's ability to autodetect my router's IP address and, because customizing the IP and DNS addresses are not separable, I and a whole chain of Sony support levels have been unable to make the unit work with the dynamic DNS router with which it worked just fine before the update
Sony really wasn't helpful in resolving the issue and basically blamed the internet provider.
SONY, FIX YOUR BLUNDERS!
The Sony support site is ambiguous, giving instructions for setting up a server and such
Sony hasn't been progressive in many years, and we were pleasantly surprised with both the TV and blu-ray player.
I don't know if the bad reviews are due to the prejudice against the big-box stores or what, but before you make your decision, read the mostly positive reviews of the S185 and then decide for yourself
I bought this at Costco, even after reading some of the negative reviews
I had the same issues as previous reviewers with Netflix (did not load properly more often than it did load), but did some research on Sony's website as well as other reviews of Sony Blu-Ray players and came up with this "fix" to the wired set-up to make Netflix run better.
