The stability of 17.04 will continue to improve as bugs are reported and fixed. If you can live with increasing stability from where you currently are, then stick with 17.04. If you cannot live with this increasing stability, downgrade to the 16.04.2 LTS version. Personally, I stick with the LTS versions and upgrade to the next LTS version at the end of its support to ensure that as many bugs get fixed as possible before I upgrade to it.
