Depends on what you want Jon.
My 650 is still in daily use as the reader I use on my lunch at work (Kobo Aura HD at home).
My 350 is still my travel reader of choice (over my Kobo Mini)

So I probably read on a Kobo slightly more than a Sony, but not by much.

Reliability has never been an issue with any of my Sony Readers (My 505 still works ).
And browsing folders is still preferable to me than managing collections.

Saying that though, can't say I've seen a lot of bugs in PRS+.
