    Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V the thing you want reflected, Edit > Transform > Transform vertically. Move the thing down and lower the opacity till it looks like a reflection. Take a soft eraser brush and erase the lower part of the thing and viola.

    Yes, this is a simple way and even the only way to do reflect.
    After transform vertically, you can use Mask + Gradient to blur from bottom to top of the reflect object.
