I have been loading over 50 years and still use my first press. A Herter's #3. I reckon any of the presses of the popular brands will outlast most of us.
I have not used a lot of the named equipment, but will say the Lyman #55 powder measure, the RCBS hand priming system, the Lyman Ohaus beam scale, the Lyman Universal case trimmer are all excellent.
I also used a Webster beam scale for years. My son now has it. Excellent.
I prefer a beam scale. You know their accuracy is machined into the beam and the provided weights. It is never going to change.
I also tried a RCBS Jr press for a while. My son now has it. I found it for $14 on eBay. That was before the current price craze. It was a good press.
As far as dies, I have some from all the major manufacturers except Dillon. They all work fine.
I load for quite a variety of handguns and rifles. It is a great hobby. What little I have spent on tools has came back to me many times over. If you don't need over a couple hundred a week a single stage or the Classic Turret would be fine. For sure, even if you step up to a progressive later there will always be a job for a single stage.
Oh ya, don't forget the first purchase should always be a manual.
