Depending on your residence, you could try out BitPanda. It is an Austrian company and my experiences on selling cryptos there ate very good. Exchange rates are fair and transparent. Exchanges work fast. I got my money on the next working day. You can also buy there cryptocurrencies.

There are many exchanges available in online but you are using the one which has the exchange+wallet so as of now Coinbase good to have as a web wallet but no private key has been to their users so risk to have fund in large volume.
I suggest to go with Livecoin, bitrex, bitfinex and etherdelta. There are many exchanges like these available will not fit for hold buddy.
OP's question was targeted to fiat/cryptocurrency exchanges. I prefer to exchange on certain services and use some of your suggested exchangers (also ploniex ) only for trading/exchanging cryptocurrency pairs.

Which crypto exactly do you want to convert and which country are you from?

I recently tried Luno and it seems okay, and if you are in Europe or you can accept paypal or bank transfer, you can even try services like BitPanda. Very fast, and no fees. Well fees are very small and included in the amount already so, the price from them doesn't look very good but since fees are all in, they end up the same. If you are only doing Bitcoin then Localbitcoins cannot be challenged for quickness and escrow.

Hi guys, very briefly, Coinbase sucks. Slow, costly, always down.

Are there better alternative to buy/sell FIAT to crypto?
