The Celestron Advanced VX is a very nice mount, more stable than the HEQ5, and can be set up in 10 minutes providing you only need a rough polar alignment for observing. Celestron's hand controllers are the best/simplest to use in my experience too.

Buying good condition used gear takes stress out of the decision since you can sell again for minimal cost if you have a change of mind.

For a super simple setup consider the Celestron Evolution scopes - you can still hook up a dslr for basic imaging using short exposures.
