You're bound to get a hundred different opinions about what to buy, so here goes.....
If you don't need target ID Tesoro machines are #1 hands down......
If you need target ID you have a ton of choices..... Whites, Fisher, Garrett, and Tesoro all produce fine machines in their own right. It all comes down to what options you really need and how many dollars you want to spend. I started out with a cheapo BH unit and it found stuff but was not the best, I then bought a Garrett ACE250- much improved and it also found lots of stuff. I then bought a Tesoro Cibola cause I was afraid I wasn't getting deep enough, and it has found lots of stuff. I just bought a Whites M6 (haven't got it yet) and I'll report on it later, but I'm sure it will find stuff too!!!!
If you can get to a dealer that carries different brands pick em up, play with them and see what YOU like, not what we may think. I might say that x is the best, but if you don't like it then what does my opinion matter?
Good luck my friend, get a machine that you can grow into and enjoy!!!!!!
