We used mainly Benjamin Moore and I have to say I wasn't really impressed. I like Sherwin Williams and Glidden much better - better coverage and better durability.

When we moved into our house originally, we used Sherwin Williams and were happy with it.
We renovated last year and the contractor worked with a painter who used Benjamin Moore - I really don't see any difference.

Re: what paint brand to use ... does everyone use Benjamin Moore?
We've used Behr in all of our rooms...I'm very brand-loyal when it comes to paint :)
We've painted our rooms an array of colors...from sage green to maroon to bold orange to cream...I will never use a different brand!

I use Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore. I think they are very comparable in terms of quality.

Behr Ultra Premium (I think that's the name) It's the top of the line one with the primer built in.
Works just as well, if not better , then BM and is SOOO much cheaper.

Re: what paint brand to use ... does everyone use Benjamin Moore?
I used the Behr Ultra that has the primer built in, but got mostly BM colors (just because that was what I picked). Home Depot matched all the BM colors perfectly and the paint is a great quality.

I really like Sherwin Williams too. Behr isn't bad either.

Re: what paint brand to use ... does everyone use Benjamin Moore?
I've used:
BM Aura
Regular Behr
Behr Premium Plus
Aura was my favorite, but I really like the Behr Premium Plus, it's very comparable to Benjamin Moore. That's what we use in the rest of the house but the main living area we use Aura.
