I started with the shinemate EX620 5 inch kit and it’s an awesome place to start. It’s a great polisher.
I’d never used a polisher before that and first used it on my 1 day old Mustang GT with stunning results. I started with the soft pads and finishing polish’s and worked my way up.
After 2 or 3 years I felt the urge to get a smaller machine so bought the shinemate eb210 kit. It’s a great addition and extremely versatile.

Neither kit I would consider high end but I think they will last me many years and work really well.
I suspect Rupes would give you a more premium feel but they will cost nearly twice as much.
