We've had GREAT success with SRX210, SRX240 and SRX650 boxes in the past
3-4 months. There has been some issues I'll admit but they were all
fixed either in service releases or actual JunOS upgrades.
I believe that most of the issues you hear about were in the 9.x JunOS
releases or at least that was my experience...

SRX seems very new and many comment it as unstable, this includes some
of
Juniper engineers I know in person. SSG though is phasing out. 8months
ago
while I was looking for these solutions more closely, I had decided to
stay
with SSG, which was good for next 3-4 years. However I believe probabyl
SRX
is more reliable now, and moving from ScreenOS to Junos definitely is a
learning curve but something that worth in long term.
