My first was blockchain.info, now I prefer to use offline wallet (multibitHD) but I still use blockchain for some transactions because I can use it anytime anywhere with the android application.

I also created my first wallet on the blockchain and the most people even did this because it was the most popular one.
Another thing is that this wallet was great and is still great in my eyes.

Coinbase and i still use it for small transactions but not for storing my bitcoins i don't trust any online wallet for this,i also have blockchain and xapo accounts but i prefer coinbase.

Coinbase is a reputable company but like you I don't trust them with large amounts of bitcoin. I have to say i've never encountered problems with them, but they are typically a company which due some fault on their behave will lock your bitcons for weeks.

I have started using bitcoin at blockchain too,my friend suggested me it a loong time ago,and i was satisfied with using it.
Actually i still do,but i will probably change it into offline wallet,because it is more safer than the online one,which i dont like while using blockchain.

Very well said blockchain has less errors and if you like to trade a lot maybe say on secondstrade.com then blockchain is the best I used a different wallet called coinbase on the trading platform but nothing appeared on the transactions list so I had to delete that wallet and go back to blockchain. I think its because of the api its more friendly and better than coinbase.

Blockchain.info was my first wallet back in 2014 , was also the first wallet to be hacked and I immediately after quit using it and started using Electrum since then until now without a single problem happening in this big amount of time, almost 2 years. Anyway I decided to give a try to this new wallet of blockchain and opened an account in my Linux PC, added all of the security measures and also now my email is hardened with 2FA so , so far so good. But I keep very very few amount of coins there as no matter the hardened security it still remains a wallet which you rely on a third party so I prefer more Electrum which I am in charge of my private keys and my bitcoins.

Blockchain was the first for many of us but i know a lot of people also use coinbase and xapo. In terms of volume coinbase is bigger, maybe even big as blockchain these days.

You can better now take a paper wallet so you cannot get hacked in the most cases.

There is no way to hack paper wallet

and it is true that Coinbase is very good secured. As i know from all online wallets and exchanges Coinbase have the best security.
Anyway, my first wallet was MultiBit, but now I'm not too happy with him. It seems to me that the most practical is Electrum.

When I started with bitcoin, I was young and naive like every newbie is and didn't really had any bitcoins either so wasn't concerned about safety since no one can steal your bitcoins if you don't have any and I created 2 wallets, one at coinbase and other at blockchain.info but as soon as I bought some BTC and started understanding the know hows, I moved to Electrum and have never touched any web wallet again, I use electrum on my desktop and for cold storage and Copay on my mobile.

My first bitcoin address was created using blockchain.info. It was quite a good site and I stored some dust in it, then more and more BTC. Then I moved to a cold storage wallet generated offline from the bitaddress.org script.

I then switched to coinbase because there are no transaction fees. They pay it for you. That's a great advantage in my opinion. The only downside is that you have to wait 3 confirmations for some bitcoins to hit your account.

The best advice you will gonna hear: blockchain.info wallet is only good when you need mobile/online wallet and prefer instant access to your bitcoins.
It is good if you not use it as your primary wallet and keep only fracture of your coins there! For stashing your coins use something else: preferably full validation wallet like Bitcoin core or Armory.

I've also created my first BTCitcoin wallet on blockchain.info (same as to majority of BTCitcoin users) and never had any major problem with them (mostly minor complications that gets sorted out within hours). I noticed you mentioning it being the safest wallet however that's not true due to it's online nature, there will always be the chance that your account being hacked (same with any other web wallet). The safest would be offline hardware wallets (like Trezor for instance).

I am still using online wallets to this day but now I mostly prefer to use mobile Bitcoin wallets because they are more convenient when I am on the go. Anyway I would recommend checking out the Blockchain wallet to anyone who wants to get started with Bitcoin.
