How much will I really see?

Hey guys, Stevan the newby here.
I've been really intersted in astronomy for a while now but never really studied anything remotely technical until the last 6 months or so.
I've currently got a 114mm Tasco refractor scope that I've had for years (like 15 years) I have used it a fair bit to view the moon and on lucky occasions Jupiter/Saturn. Obvisouly the moon looks great but the plantes are a little bit blurry. I've been looking for a while at upgrading and looking at a Saxon 10" Dob for price vs quality. They say I'll be able to see nebulae, double stars and star clusters etc but I wanted to get an idea of how much I'm actually going to see?
Would love to hear some of your experiences of what you've seen!!
