Matt, to be honest you can research and ask questions, read everything you can about this kit and the other, but while you are doing all this you could have bought some cheap kits or expensive kits and had a go at turning them. Both daveygee and Dan, who are member here, sell kits, Dan usually has a 10% discount code for forum members.
The kits to steer clear of are so cheap that they are not worth steering clear of, just get some, turn them and you have gained some real experience for a very low outlay.
