I bought this kit last week
It has a lot of extras you may or may not need, plus a nifty miniature toolbox for compact storage.
It's not the best quality tool/set ever (and most of the products have chinese on them), but the old saying is buy the cheaper decent tool until you either use it till broken your you're too good for it, then upgrade.
I'm very happy with this kit. (I made something with it), so I know it actually works.
You can fuss with connectors, but that limits your options considerably.
Generally you'll want to mount the power supply somewhere on a wall or a shelf somewhere, and then run wire to the strips. Working with pre-made stuff, you won't be able to position things very well; those mostly work for under-cabinet lighting.
All the tapes work by having two copper traces along the length for a +12V and a ground. There are pads placed along the length that you can solder wires to, and marks for where you can cut the tape. Making this connection is pretty easy, even if you don't have soldering experience. If you're into DIY/woodworking stuff, it shouldn't be a problem.
The power supplies have a standard terminal block. These are basically little screws that clamp onto a bare wire. You simply need to be able to strip the end of a wire of its insulation to make the connection. Ideally you solder the wire first so the strands don't poke out and short on something, but that's optional.
To wire this all up, you'll need a wall-power cable (you can buy these pre-made, or simply cut the cord off a discarded appliance) to connect to the power supply. Then, you'll need to run paired wires to the actual strips themselves. Note that this is a 12V system, so the amperage can actually be considerable. A full strip is going to draw about 5 amps, so size the wire accordingly. 18AWG is a good start, but if you want to do a long run (>10feet) I'd go for 16AWG.
A simple iron is all you need (https://smile.amazon.com/GLE2016-Soldering-Adjustable-Temperature-Different/dp/B01N413T8U/ref=sr_1_13?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1542140733&sr=1-13&keywords=soldering+iron)
but the extras in a kit like this might be useful if you don't have any electronics tools: https://smile.amazon.com/Soldering-Electronics-Adjustable-Temperature-Portable/dp/B071VLFGXL/ref=sr_1_14?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1542140733&sr=1-14&keywords=soldering+iron

The latter has side-cutters, so get it if you are installing LEDs. It also has desoldering wick, which is very useful for when you fuck up (vacuum pump alone may not be enough).
