Just to elaborate on why recommend Baratza products... they are good products to begin with but also easily user-serviceable / repairable / upgradable. Also their customer support is top notch. That's not to say you should expect them to break, mind you.
I think you'll see similar sentiment in almost any review of them that you see.
On the other hand if you want to go cheap, the Cuisinart burr grinder is probably the best you can do sub-$100. It will be good (but not great) for anything but espresso I think. https://www.cuisinart.com/shopping/appliances/coffee_makers/DBM-8P1/
Edit: when it's time for the drip maker I highly recommend the breville precision. It's pricy but worth it. If it's out of price range just try to get something that's good cup certified... https://sca.coffee/certified-home-brewer
