Looking for a secure place to store my bitcoins. What do you recommend? I found a few here, but looking for more feedback

Thanks!

Hardware wallet is the most secure place to store bitcoin, such as Ledger Nano and Trezor. You can also use desktop wallet Exodus or web wallet Coinbase and Blockchain.info. These are a few best options.

These offline wallets are probably safe but there's a possibility that it might be hacked if we are too lazy not to keep our private key in the proper place. The most important is keeping the private key and seed of phrase to recover our wallet anytime.
I don't agree on the web wallet. Most of them have different issues.
That's right, we must keep the private key after making our bitcoin wallet to ensure that it will be secure from hacking incident.
Always bear this in your mind that if you're not holding private key/ seed phrase the bitcoin/altcoin you've stored is not belongs to you.

Use electrum wallet is the best option you install this on your clean laptop that not infected malware virus.
Here: https://electrum.org/
Actually no matter what wallet you do use if you dont know on how to take care of it then risk of losing your funds would be there but the advantage
of holding up your own keys would be the best thing to be done rather than entrusting your funds into an online wallet which you dont posses your keys.

Electrum is the best choice not necessarily to install Core which is lot more heavier.

I use Exodus and I think this is the best wallet for storing coins or exchanging. High security and fast transactions.

Here is another list of the top Crypto Wallets for 2019.
How you consider that list is top wallet for what?
I'm not even familiar with etoro wallet, and coinbase is an exchange, no comment with ledger nano but for jaxx? Hell no, and you call them as top used wallet? That list is a complete biased, only for promotion purpose with affiliate marketing.

Electrum, and blockchain.com is one of the used wallet though one of them is yet laggy but still most people use them.

agree that blockchain isnt bad at all because so far i havent experience any issue with  it and actually i hodl for over a year now using this wallet therfor i can surely say that this is safe but yeah hardware wallets are even more solid because they are offline anyways  .  the only cons between them is that they can be dropped which can caused damage to the hardware or it can be stolen or accidentally miss placed which isnt really good for person that always on the go  .
I disagreed the words that I bolded above, you can still recover your damage hardware wallet through seed recovery phrase or backup seed phrase. You must write it in a piece of paper and keep into your wallet or something else that you won't forget. Keeping the seed phrase is our responsibility to keep our Bitcoin safe even we hold for a long time.

I have a blockchain.com wallet and I am fully verified account passing with KYC or personal data. So far I don't have any problem with this wallet. So, there's nothing to worry about this seems they are one of the reputed web wallets.

There are many wallets which are secure and promising. I would always like to use Bitcoin wallet as Coinbase which is very easy to use and secure and better wallet than other wallets.

You can also consider blockchain as it is one of the secured and most commonly used web wallet to store you coins. If you are long term investor than only option is to store offline else if you have limited or trade frequently then can try on online exchanges like bittrex, binance, etc as well.

Blockchain wallet isnt bad at all since this is the first wallet i have used when i started up here on crypto but not really reliable for you to store up for longterm or specially putting up large sums of coins the only thing i do like is that you can already store up some other altcoins in the market as well but if we do talk solely on storing BTC for long term then i would choose up either hardware or just Electrum only in terms of storage.

in my opinion blockchain.info wallet which is now blockchain.com wallet is a good start, just enable 2fa to protect yo coins

It is a good wallet and yes 2fa is compulsory which give you an extra layer of protection from getting the wallet stolen. Also if someone has few btc then it is recommended to store it offline and not in online wallet as it can be highly risky.

There is a desktop, mobile, hardware, paper wallets for bitcoin. Personally, I use cold storage that CEX provides for six months. It’s as safe as a hardware wallet because your crypto is stored offline. Furthermore, the cold wallet is less expensive than a hardware one. You will need to create an account on CEX to start using its storage. And it can be convenient if you decide to trade crypto or exchange it to fiat, as they providing various payment methods (https://www.cex.io/buy-bitcoins).

You have 2 choices: Electrum or hardware wallet. Both of them are good to use.

Avoid to put your Bitcoin in wallet exchanger (such as Binance, Bittrex, etc) , it's better to use offline wallets such as Electrum Wallet.
For the online wallet i recommend you to use Blockchain, it's user friendly and easy to use.
This. I can't agree more. Exchanges are not meant to be storage of funds. Hardware wallet or open source wallet is a good choice for security and safety of funds. Electrum is a good choice if you only store Bitcoin but if you want to store multiple coins, Hodler Wallet is preferable. Hodler is the only opesource multiwallet which holds most of the stable coin and even ERC20 token.

I also loss big amount from an exchange. Since then I make sure that I have the control of my private key. I'm actually using electrum for m6 Bitcoin. Didn't know that there is an open source wallet for multiple coin. Do you have website I can check the wallet you mentioned, If its truly open source I might have it. Most multiasset wallet are closed source which is I'm not a fan.

As mentioned in the list above the Ledger Nano S and the Trezor are the best ever wallets out there as they are hardware wallets.
Hardware wallets provide the best security for crypto currencies. You will also hear Electrum wallet from many people as the most convenient wallet to use. It is true as it is compatible with all the devices. Apart from all of these wallets, Mycelium wallet has been my most used wallet as it is convenient and efficient to use. It provides features such as custom fees, reboradcast transaction, cancel transaction etc... which not many of the wallets provide. It's seed can be backed up and used whenever we want.
Hi. as you mentioned, Ledger Nano S and the Trezor are the best hardware wallet but could you please let me n know which one is better?
