There is nothing wrong with the Synta made Dobsonians. The mirrors will not compete with the professional handmade exotics but they still do a great job. I doubt you would be disappointed with any of the above mentioned dobs.
Are other Sky Watcher scopes from China as well?
eg. SW 150/750, 150/1200?
