I would not buy a starter kit. I would do a lot of homework. Personally after many years, I cut down all my deeps to mediums, cut down all my ten frame equipment to eight frame equipment and am much happier with all the same size and with lighter boxes.
There actually isn't anything IN a starter kit that I'd buy except maybe the brush, and you can get by without that.
I use a different hive tool, a jacket with a zip on veil, instead of a veil, all eight frame mediums, mostly foundationless (they all come with plastic in a cell size I don't want), I like a screened bottom board, instead of the solid one they sell you, I don't see any point to their hive stand, a couple of bricks or four by fours will work better, I hate deeps, I hate different sized boxes. The smoker in the kit is the small one and I'd prefer the larger one (easier to keep lit). And the list goes on...
