As others have said, it really depends on what you are doing and what you plan to cook.
For car camping, I've got a big dual burner Coleman propane stove. With a griddle, I can cook up bacon, eggs, and potatoes and feed an army. I also use this stove for BBQs and backyard parties, it's a beast. If I were to buy one now I'd probably get a Camp Chef Everest.
If I'm car camping but flying to my destination, or backpacking and want to do a little cooking, I'll bring a Kovea Supalite (without the piezo). It's a great little Ti stove, big enough to hold a normal size frying pan but folds up nice and small. The MSR Pocket Rocket 2 is very similar.
When I'm just out on my own and only need to heat a mug of water for freeze dried meals, I'll bring the BRS-3000T. Got it on Amazon for $12, it's a nice litte stove... but some have had issues with the stand collapsing from heat when running full blast. I don't use it full open to conserve fuel so I haven't had a problem. The BRS-3000T is a knock-off of the Fire-Maple FMS-300T (which I didn't know at the time); I picked up the US version for my son, the Olicamp Ion Micro Ti, again a great little stove.
I've got an old Jetboil (link to the updated version); it's an integrated stove which means the pot is connected to the stove; this can be useful in some situations. The main benefit of the Jetboil is that the pot has a heat exchanger so it's very efficient heating water. With the integration and heat exchanger, it's a bit heavy compared to other options, but it's very convenient. I don't bring it backpacking too often due to the weight, but it goes car camping so I can heat water for coffee while other things are cooking on the dual burner propane stove. Today, I'd probably get the MSR Windburner or the Fire-Maple FMS-X2.
Lastly, I've made several alcohol stoves BITD. The benefit of an alcohol stove is that you can make one for free, you only need to bring as much fuel as you're going to use (as opposed to a canister where you may end up carrying around a half-empty canister at the end of the trip). One downside is that it's slow, in the mornings I like to have my water heated quickly for coffee. Another is that it's considered an open fire, some places with fire restrictions won't allow a stove that doesn't have a valve to turn it off.
