2960 is already end-of-support. 

3850 will be end-of-support 31 October 2021.  

You're better off looking at 9200/9200L for the Layer 2 component and 9300/9300L for the Layer 3 component.

Thanks Leo,

 

Dont really need to put in under support so I was hoping to keep the old generation switches.

 

Thanks anyways for the reply.

If stability is the objective, then avoid the 3650/3850 because it runs on IOS-XE. 

For Layer 2, get 2960S (but not 2960X). 

For Layer 3, 3560X or 3750X will suffice.

Thank you very much.
