I will agree with those statements. For a long time I have been a newt guy but recently took a step into the refractor world, buying first a short fl wide field scope and later a traditional long fl achro. The quality of planetary viewing and ease of use are the key benefits. I still love my 16" dob but it takes time to get it set right and as far as moving it to a dark site its a logistical nightmare, but once set up there it dazzles me. For grab and go refractors win.
