Rolled the Dice & Winner!!

 

Overall I am now happy with the purchase. Keep in mind this is a exchange warranty only . NO REFUNDS.

Nice Features - Great Price - Network Features work well. Quick loading. Easy to navigate menu. Unit looks new. Would never know it was refurbished. I have not experienced the network or web streaming issues others have described with NetFlix or any of...

Internet browsing feature is a good idea but its practically useless. The player is not robust enough to handle Java, Flash or any other web browser plug ins. Only will display simple pages and Google search results. Won't load most of the pages you...

Sony BDP-BX58

 

NONE

Worst money I have ever spent, unit will only play some blu-rays occasionally and has never played a 3-D blu-ray successfully. Google no disc and this player and that says it all. I bought this unit last year and gave up on it after a week and just put...

Nice Product

 

It just works! Everything works like expected. The setup was very easy. It always connects up to my router with no problems even after replacing my wireless network with a new router. Buy it

It is a little slow starting, but you can change to a faster mode it you want to, but it uses a fan and more electricity. It isn't that big of a deal anyway

Great player for the price

 

I was looking to pick up a 3rd Bluray player for the 3rd TV. I already had 2 Samsungs - one with built in WiFi and one just WiFi ready, and I didn't want to spend $70 for the adapter, so I don't use internet apps with it and firmware updates have to be...

Built in WiFi ; Good selection of built-in apps ; Looks good ; Compact size ; Decent boot up speed

Menus are a little cumbersome ; The included batteries were dead - not a big deal, but really? I mean how long had they been there (they were new Sony batteries in the wrapper)

Nice

 

Works like a champ. Plays DVD's with no problems and it has WIFI so we can watch netflix. It has a whole bunch of other stuff on it as well, but we don't really use it at all

None so far

Not bad

 

It's pretty nice. Has a lot of features

Netflix is a bit choppy sometimes but I don't know if it's a problem with the blu ray player or not

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Works great, one caveat

 

Plays blu rays, netflix, pandora, hulu, crackle, etc, no problem. It did a software upgrade over the WIFI a few days after I received it. Working great. Refurb is good as new (almost: see cons)

Being a refurb unit, it was already activated under someone else. A major failure by the factory doing the refurb, I think. If you go to Sony for support, you won't get any. Tried email and chat and they both told me I had to call a long distance...
