I'm on my 2nd LG from Vzw, 4th if you count my wifes. The new one, an 8600, is great other then battery life, it's probably 6 months old and starting to shorten in it's usefulness, 3 days down from 4 and dropping.
But the batts can be had on ebay for $6 or so.
LG makes their own phones, near as my research can tell, most other farm out bits and pieces or assembly. Moto has made a series of dogs. The only one that seems to have held up was the E815. I'd bet Samsung is pretty good too.
I also bought a Nokia for me mum that has been fine, but her usage is minimal so it's not much of a test.
