If you can use kraken, I would recommend that
Otherwise, bitstamp

I bet on the death of Bitstamp killed by European regulations 
Now it becomes ennemy no 1
Followed by Btce-e, owned by anonymous russians who can at any moment fly away with all the btc
2014, year of the exchanges

On those metrics, bitstamp is the current frontrunner
For btc/alt's Cryptsy is backed by a real company and will not be running away.
They have some issues but recent customer support was great.
Edit:
4) is unusable from bad/cheap design, system, traffic/liquidity problem
Cryptsy runs a large rack of servers and only gets slow some of the time.
The layout/ navigation is inferior to several others mostly because they have almost 150 markets.

CoinMKT. Aside from low-traffic (which seems to improving week by week), they're the farthest along in terms of compliance and they've never halted withdrawals to my knowledge. Once their liquidity picks up just a bit more they'll breakout and become a huge player. Especially since they offer other cryptos.
IMO, coinbase for US, and bitstamp for non-US.
I've been ripped off by coinbase before, not sure what to do though.

I use bitstamp and I havent had any problems. But I will be vigilant for any bad news that start coming from Slovenia, where it is based.
bitstamp I suppose, hopefully better options develop soon
1) be shutdown by non compliance/govt
2) bankrupt from mismanaging funds
3) get hacked from cheap site or incompetence
4) is unusable from bad/cheap design, system, traffic/liquidity problem

Well one thing that will fuck everything up is lawsuits and such. If such things become common you can kiss cryptos good bye.
There is a few good exchanges out there ATM, the issue is the lack of verity on most, let alone volume. Most of em when they see a problem they shut down to fix the problem, unlike a un-named one who lets it keep on going, while no one has a clue wtf is going on, and then blames it on the block chain...
