This paper focuses on nonparametric estimation of quantiles, based on estimators of the distribution function. We review some known and recommended quantile estimators and propose a new one, which has all the desired properties of quantile estimators. The consistency and asymptotic normality of the estimators is proved. The estimators considered are compared in a small simulation study.
