The Cisco SG series is decent for semi-managed switches. I have installed a
number of the SG-200 series for various clients.
They support QoS, VLANs, etc...
If you want Layer 3 capability, though, I am pretty sure you need to get
a 300 or better. I know the 200s don't support it.

PS... I have never used the Ubiquiti switches, but FWIW, I absolutely love
their wireless APs.

All of pfSense (ESF Netgate, including the collocation sites) runs on a
combination of Dell PowerEdge 5524P (PoE), 5548, and 8924F switches.

This.
Given how small the price difference often is between unmanaged and
semi-managed (aka 'smart') switches these days, it just doesn't make
sense to buy unmanaged any more. You never know when things
The 1910's ARE rebranded 3com, but I found them to be very reliable.
We are having good luck with the 2530's right now.

I've also had reasonably good luck with Netgear and D-Link managed switches.
The Cisco SMB stuff seems OK hardware-wise, but the software is questionable.
Note that all three of these options come with lifetime, free, firmware
I agree with the point that managed vs nonmanaged price difference is
negligible so why not managed...
Ubiquiti is worth a look for this application. The OS is nice to work with
and has both CLI and GUI

HP Procurves are a good line of switches, and often come with a full
lifetime warranty. I also like Juniper, but those tend to be more
expensive, although often more capable than the HPs.
It's my policy (as a networking professional) to *always* buy managed
switches. Doing this can give you a
