If you can get a high quality stainless steel it might last you a lifetime. Healthwise, stainless steel will always be a better choice than any non-stick, as long as it isn't a coated stainless. I quit buying non-stick a long time ago and invested in high quality all clad one piece at a time. They clean up great and no worries about chemicals leeching into food.
Stainless steel is great, but if you're just starting off, PLEASE do yourself a favor and watch some youtube videos on how to cook with stainless steel. If you start off wrong, you're just going to get everything stuck to the pan and be really frustrated and maybe regret spending the extra money on stainless steel. It's honestly not very hard to learn, but it's NOT something you'll likely learn all on your own without guidance by just experimenting.
The short version for most things you'd be cooking: get the pan screaming hot until water "dances" on the pan like it's on an air hockey table instead of evaporating - then dial back the heat for a minute, put in a small amount of oil (it should shimmer) and now you can cook. But watch some videos!
For someone starting off, should I get this set or stainless steel?

Appreciate the comment, I think I'll probably get stainless steel then. Thanks again!

get the kind that doesnt have silicone or anything on the frying pan handles so they can be thrown in the oven so they can make more dishes and not have to have extra baking pans just convenient if you dont have them already. Also invest in a cheap oil spritzer the kind you fill with oil yourself cheaper and better for you then the spray pam and the like.

Check Costco warehouse is currently selling Henckles tri-play clad stainless steel 12 piece set. I might be on clearance I recently purchase for $129.99. It might be a great choice, a high quality stainless steel set. Item #1816600

How this compares to TFal which sells for a lot less?
A good T-fal set like this is about the same price probably. They sell tiers of cookware so you can get really cheap thin stuff or better quality items.

I'd probably suggest getting only a few individual pots and pans as you might find you have a set of pots and pans sitting around never being used. That's true for me at least. I bought this set and probably only use 3 of the 7 pots/pans https://www.costco.com/p/-/tramon...?langId=-1
Learning how to use stainless steel frying pans is a good skill to have. It's not "hard" to learn to use stainless steel frying pans, but it definitely takes some time and experience and there are plenty of youtube guides. I found these videos helpful https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrv6N5kYfAk and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-_FnU9FaeA for learning how to prevent food from sticking.
That said, I do love me some good nonstick frying pans. They are useful in their own right. Costco has Tramontina Professional Restaurant Nonstick Aluminum Fry Pans on sale (and Amazon) which are fantastic non-stick frying pans that have lasted better than any other non-stick pan I've used.

Don't forget to get a high smoke point oil too. Avocado oil works well.
