I bought one with the interchangeable heads as my first Low D. The price was amazing and, even though I am a complete beginner with a relatively small reach, I could get a recognisable tune out of the whistle within a few hours of practice. I still have a long way to go but I would encourage any Low D beginner to try a Dixon first because it is so easy to play that it is not discouraging.

I have not mastered the flute yet, but that is an embouchure thing!
