use core, it is completely decentralized, right now i don't see the need to use any spv client, jus to save 60gb, when we have HDD with one tera that are sold for $10 on the market
also anyone has at least 2mb-4mb in speed connection, this is more than enough to synch

But do Electrum they have access to our bitcoins / can steal them ?
no
they dont have access to the private keys themselves. (unless you downloaded a virus/hacked version)
but because their program does not connect to other random peers of the network, but connects to their server. if their server goes down you wont be able to push new transactions to the network.
so just be sure to backup your wallet/keys/seed so that you can use the wallet/keys/seed elsewhere, in the small chance their server dies
if you have the seed/backup you can import that into any other wallet program
so dont reply on the program. just rely on the privatekey/seed which you should backup and keep safe

As long as you don't let your computer open and not have a virus in your computer, then no one will be able to steal your coins. All this is assuming you have the original client installed, and not a false one.
A offline wallet wont ever stop working, if you have the seed, you can always restore your bitcoins.
Just keep your seed /backup safe in multiple locations to be safe.
