What's great about it: Everything!
What's not so great: no optical audio out, only digital coaxial out.
I spent hours online reviewing which TV and Blu-ray player I would purchase and after careful consideration this unit was the BD player I decided on. Set-up is quick and easy. Popping in Terminator Salvation or Avatar looks Amazing on my Sharp Aquos! Oh yeah and not to mention all the great reviews for the price, ya can't beat that.
The only thing I dislike about the unit is not being equipped with a optical audio out, but that's not a huge deal for me.
This product has... Great DVD upconversion, Useful Internet-enabled features, Good connection options, Easy to use controls, optical out n/a :(

I enjoy everything about this bluray player, but I should mention the netflix and other features are not wireless. The player can only operate the online features with a network cable hooked up to the back of the player. Although I was a tad disappointed with this at first, I'm still happy with everything the player does. It's a great value for the price!

What's great about it: plays everything i own
What's not so great: you just have to be patient
I am very happy with this player, this is my second one I have bought and just love it. Makes all my dvd's look great and is awesome for blue ray, great value as well. So far this little machine reads everything I have with no problems. I have be converting my old personal vhs tape to dvd and it reads those dvd's could not ask for a better player. Wired internet no problem, just read the manual for resetting your network if not found right away. Also if you can't wait for the machine to load dvds and blue ray and are button happy, want to push buttons to speed up machine will not work, just wait for the machine to load and you will love it.

What's great about it: Picture quality
What's not so great: Shelf life, dependablity
I purchased this product for my main entertainment center. About 4 months after purchase the player began not reading pristine discs. After ejecting and closing the DVD several times, the disc would read. Then it began having issues reading Blu-Ray. Then it would not read BluRay or DVD. I had to take this back to Best Buy for service 4 times (Black Tie Service) and would have to wait 1-3 weeks to get it back for the same issues to occur again within days. I was finally given a new one, purchased a new black-tie warranty, I am having the same issues all over again.
I want to think I got two bad units, but beware!

I purchased this product to compliment a 50" Panisonic Plasma, I had owned it two months and it works flawlessly.Not the slightest of any problems, best Blu Ray plaer I have ever owned. I like the hand sensor on top, just wave my hand over it and it opens the player and turns it on.

A fantastic blu-ray player for the price. Nice slim profile, quick startup time, and great picture quality for both blu-ray discs and upscaling of DVDs. Network playback is great too--I've used Netflix and Amazon Instant Video--both had great playback quality. Hard to believe I paid 3 times as much for a similar player a few years ago! Be sure to pickup an HDMI cable as one isn't included in the box.

This is my first time buying a product from LG. This blu ray player is an excellent and great product, was easy to set up and the picture and quality of it its fantastic. I can't wait to hook up to an HD TV to enjoy more of it. That will be my next purchase.

What's great about it: Great price, user interface, and connectivity options
I got this unit on the BestBuy website with in-store pickup at ~ 50% off the in-store list price. It's a great value. I had it set up in ~ 5 minutes.
This machine plays not only Bluray, DVDs, and CDs, but also video, music, and picture files from any USB drive. The user interface is much better than Sony's and is so easy that even my parents, who have trouble with the user interface on my Western Digital media player, could figure it out.
Another great selling point is the component video plugs if you have an older TV, like I do. Not many Bluray players combine both component video outputs with USB inputs.

What's great about it: Price
What's not so great: Not wireless
Since this unit is a wired-only unit, you need to be close to your router for periodic updates.
Some features are not available, such as 'zoom' and we missed it.
Some features are not available, such as 'zoom' and we missed it.
Also, we purchased the Blu-Ray player in order to see "extras" on disks, only to find out that now one needs to own the disk. Rental disks don't have any extra features. Apparently this is the norm - in the past, on rental DVDs it used to say,"in order to see the extra features, view the Blu-Ray version.

What's great about it: UPCONVERSION
What's not so great: time to reach disc menu
I waited for a sale to obtain this solely for the DVD upconversion which is excellent--near HD quality to my not overly discerning eye. There are a few steps prior to getting to your disc menu which took <5 seconds but sort of a pain. Now, for my MAGNUM OPUS observation. I found that if you PAUSE your disc, then power off, it will resume where you left off when you power back on and press play. I don't believe that is in the manual. That's why I'm writing this review in order to enlighten and lessen frustration. Also, press the green button during the zoom feature to actually zoom up. That wasn't stated in the manual either and took me a bit to find out, but then, I'm a simple man. Hope this helps.

What's great about it: Easy setup. Remote works with my Visio TV.
What's not so great: Discs load a little slow. Minimal menu options.
I did a lot of research and this one seemed worth the risk. I have wired ethernet behind my TV, so I didn't need wireless. I took it out of the box, plugged the power into the wall, plugged the HDMI into the TV, and the Ethernet into my router, all within about 5 minutes. On power-up I got a message saying there was a software update available. I updated and everything works great. The remote even works with my Visio TV. The menu structure isn't impressive, but is functional. Discs take a little longer to load than I would expect. Also, the remote is a little slow. But for the price, I'm glad I bought it.

this blu-ray was on sale for a ok price and decided to take up the offer.quality and sharpness are great,but the only thing i didnt like is that it must b connected to the wireless router directly.which in my case is in another room.instead of taking it back and getting my money,we ended up keeping it since we already have a wii for wireless video streaming.just beware that this is a direct connection to the router,and not wireless.im sure there are some small gadgets that i couldve went and bought to connect ,but since im not a real geeksquad i wouldnt have even nown how to hook it up.

For the small investment this is a great player. Although it has been stated that this unit weighs little and moves around alot, it is not a problem if the remote is used. The movement issue was solved with a little museum putty under the feet. The picture and sound are absolutely amazing whether it is on a small LCD or large Plasma. Great buy.
