Hey, I have been interested in getting a drum set for a little over a year now, and I think it's time for me to start looking into the choices I have, as well as the pros and cons for each set that is available. I want a good set that will last for a while, or atleast not very costly to fix if something does go wrong. I will be playing a lot and probably will be moving it around a lot. I don't want to spend more than 550-600 dollars.

Can anyone recommend a set(s) to me?
Thank you.
