Buying Kettlebell - Concrete or Cast Iron? One or a Set?

I did a search and didn't see where this might have been addressed (sorry if I missed it). I want to buy a kettlebell. I've never used one before. I'm confused about buying cast iron or concrete. I'm reading reviews on Amazon that the concrete ones can fall apart quickly, but then, i'm not sure I'll like them (therefore want to spend big $$). Then, I see a few concrete sets. Should I buy a set rather than just one? Thoughts?

    I started out with the very reasonably priced iron CAP kettlebell set of 10-15-20 lb from walmart ($3 shipping to home!!) , but then ordered a 20-25-30 set shortly afterwards for my husband . I'm currently using 25 for the single bell workout and two 20's for the double workout, very challenging (I weigh 125 lb, female). It is nice to have a few different sizes around.
