+1 for Electrum.

I have pulled it apart over at Github and its fun to learn the code.  I frankly am not that great but I am learning more every single month.  My preference is Electrum + hardware wallet.  Nice review.

People don't give enough love to Electrum. I think it is the best all around wallet out there. The latest version does a great job of estimating fees and also lets you mark a transaction as replaceable so you can bump the fee up as needed. The Android version is just as good as the desktop, the only feature lacking is hardware wallet support.
I hate having bitcoin wallets write to /appdata/ and Electrum comes in a portable version you keep in a folder on your desktop or carry on a flash drive. Support is very good also. You can reach the developer here on the forum if you have a problem.

Yeah, Electrum is definitely my favorite wallet to use. I used to use blockchain.info until they changed interfaces and made the site awful and then I switched to Electrum. Glad I made the change as Electrum is great.

Electrum is the forum favorite until now if you see the stats. Only newbies still keep using blockchain.info wallet or other web wallets in which you the majority of the time don't even control the private keys, meaning don't even control your bitcoins. Electrum make it simple and it is one of the most secure desktop wallets out there. Anytime we have seen errors it has been from the user part and not from the Electrum wallet itself. Best free desktop wallet without any doubt.
