Im using online/web wallet at the moment because my bitcoin isn't much yeah that was sad
I'm using various wallets across multiple currencies. From desktop lightweight to web wallets and full nodes for different altcoins. On my phone I'm using only the jaxx wallet at the moment as I don't need anything else. 
As the poll shows 'Web Wallet' is the most popular type of wallet. The ease and convenience provided by web wallets are not matched by any other mean of wallet. I am using Coinbase from last 15 months and never faced a single problem. Rather, I enjoy the fees free fast transactions.
However, wallets are use specific. Not every wallet caters all need. Therefore, I am using Paper wallet for holding 2 BTC at the moment. If I keep it in my web wallet, I may use it soon!
So if someone wanna do daily transactions in Bitcoin (Coinbase or Electrum)
For holding Bitcoin (Paper Wallet/0

I am just using web wallet and for 2 years of using it I don't have any problem except for the bank related matters that my bitcoins can not be withdrawn, but still I am not referring to just use web wallet only, I really want to use other bitcoin wallet storage maybe in the future but for now I am sticking to the things that I know so my vote goes to web storage.
They all come with their own advantages but remember technically speaking there is only one wallet which is the private key.
So whatever you do and whatever you use, they'll all use private keys to transfer coins.
Do you save the private key of each address before depositing? if not then you deserve to lose your money.
No matter what type I always save my private keys but web wallet such as bc.info is my favorite.

I use electrum and a couple of web wallets and have some shared addresses where possible. I don't like using the original qt wallet since it eats my cpu and really slows down my internet. I only use full node wallets when they are pos and I can earn something from it by running it.
I use only web wallet...but will like to try out the paper wallet
Paper wallet is just a waste of time. It has also risk just like the web wallets. If you have a huge quantity of bitcoin the its a good alternative to try paper wallet but if you have only a small amount it is really a waste of time. There are many ways how to make your bitcoin safe in web wallets. The advantage of having your coin in web wallets is that you can access it everywhere you go and you can do many things with it.
yes paper wallet is really a boring and time consuming task. And initially when I was new to bitcoin and had very less transaction in a week and at that time I was curious to use new technology and I loved to use paper wallet at that time but now I have to transact more and paper wallet are time waster.
An online wallet to do my transactions and an offline to where I store most of it. Better be safe than risking it all in an online one. You cant see what could happen if suddenly one wallet site tells they are hacked, which I see is always a lie just to run off from their cusromers. They just go away once they got the quota they wanted.
Exactly. That really is the best solution. Online wallet (exchange, web, desktop, mobile, etc) for as your "spending account" that you don't keep much in, then a very secure offline wallet as your "savings account". I don't see how anything else could be better than that.

Well for Me I use two kind of wallet one is paper wallet I use it for my personal investment, Inorder for me to hold myself from transferring it to an exchange website and cashing it out to early , the second one is the exchange wallet I use it to receive fund from signature campaign and when I am exchanging my bitcoins to fiat
I don't know of the wallet I'm using is categorized under web wallet but I voted for it because I can only view my wallet if I'm online. I'm using a local wallet applicable only here in the Philippines. I love this wallet because it is very convenient to use and there are lots of options to choose where to cash out my bitcoin.
One of the best web wallets blockchain.info and electrum is one of the best personal wallets, now you could talk about coinbase all day but facts are facts.
Well the only form of wallet I know of is a web wallet. I find it simple and easy to use. I don't have bitcoins right now, but If I got the chance to get bitcoins, I will surely took in consideration different kinds of wallet to store it.

I want a simple, as long as I know bitcoin about 2 years I only use 1 web wallet from coinbase. the other reason was since I have a wallet, I've yet to save a bitcoin over 0.5 btc.
Coinbase is fine wallet, there is no big minimum charge to transfer the bitcoins using coinbase. I always desktop wallet and I use the electrum wallet and it is more convenient to have a multiple address and can combine multiple wallets together. When you are moving with high btc transaction then prefer the desktop wallets bro.

I too prefer web wallet for the improved safety features along with the easy accessibility. Coinbase have restrictions in the usage of bitcoin. For this purpose I prefer using Blockchain wallet than most other wallets that are in use.

Yeah I have used Coinbase for a long time and right now, I am using two kind of wallet: Bitcoin core and Coinbase. I find coinbase is very useful to send and receive funds from my friends because most of them are using coinbase and we can make a transaction only with our mail. I use Bitcoin core to store my Bitcoin safer and prevent cyber attacker from stealing my property Jump to:
