Straight sets

How many of you do straight sets all of the time? I do pyramid sets every great once and a while.
 
I usually pyramid with a burnout as my first and last set
example : bench
1st set 185 x 12
2nd set 205 x8
3rd set 225 x 6
4th set 185 x as many as I can usually bout 12 - 15

This seems to work good for me, although I change my routine every two weeks or so, but this is my personal favorite.
 
straight sets= 4x10
This is what I currently do for my core lifts
Bench for example/ 1x20.......non working set warmup
1x5
1x5
1x5
1x5
1x5........all pyramiding up until complete failure on the last set.......then back off on the weight and hammer out as many reps to failure
