I want to create new wallet using MyEtherWallet(dot)com, is it recommended wallet and easy to use?

There is no wallet which is SECURED one.

All the wallets are one and the same and having the same principle of working. They get unlocked with either pass phrase, private keys and keystone file. I guess if you loose them then you loose access to the wallet. If you get phished from external source then you can get hacked easily.

Now these all wallets are online and prone to such things. They are secure if you are keeping everything safe.

Hardware could be the thing you should checkout. - Research it.

I have been using this purse for a long time, until problems arise. Yes, and many on the forum praise him. Personally, for my part, I can say that MyEtherWallet one of the best wallets.

Yes of course it's easy to use and secure. I have been using myetherwallet.com about 11 months now and still did not encounter any problem. But to be on a safe side be sure to use a secure internet connection and a personal computer or phone. Do not use public wifi or internet cafe. They might install a keylogger or anything that will able to hack your private key.

Using a safe and solid service is one of the great steps to stay safe in the digital world, and you do the right thing by asking (at least some people have experience with the service you will use can tell you).  Wink

The more important thing (as the comment above said) is personal security. In my opinion, a personal fault caused a lot of loss of assets (coins), phishing websites, weak and patterned password creation, storing important data online (in the cloud or e-mail) and many other things.

I've also used MEW, so far I haven't troubled with that.
The best thing you can do:

I use this wallet as a cold wallet, so far it's fine, but if you want to be sure, then use it offline from an offline computer all the time.

Yes the site is safe to use but only if you are attentive enough. The correct site is https://www.myetherwallet.com. Even a word here and there can land you to a phishing site with same look and feel. Bookmark this site rather than typing it every time.

Also before entering your private key, make sure that the browser bar shows green trust sign with a lock and MyEtherWallet Inc (US) written in green. For extra security measures, you can use the site in a private browser window with all add-ons removed or disabled. And if you can, then use the offline wallet.

myetherwallet is the safest Etherum wallet to use in the entire market and it doesn't even save your data or private keys it's all with you and it just lets you connect for a short period of time with the ethereum main net just by typing your private key or uploading your wallet file and once you close the tab of browser your data is erased from the website, but there was a dns problem which hackers took advantage of and stole many people's tokens but that was all people's fault and not due to mew.

I've been using it for a year. Have had no problems. There are cases of fraud with phishing sites but this does not apply to this wallet

Yes, myetherwallet is very secure if you're accessing the authentic website.  There are a lot of fake MEW sites out there.  Bookmark it and also use the bookmark.  Also, download metacert for additional security from fake sites.

I recommend you use it I for one already using for about a year now and I seem not to see any problems with it. It is so easy to use since the user's interface is so simple. Just be careful of phishing sites because there are so many fake ones out there just bookmark it after you use it. Here's the link Myetherwallet.com Smiley
