I just checked you other post. We have the same scope, the smaller one, at the Mapleton observatory (sitting in a cupboard). Its not mounted but the view through it is not too bad, though nothing to write home about, however it does have a nice and wide Field of View (FOV).
Iwouldn't touch those two mounts with a barge pole, though. They would be lucky to hold a pair of binoculars steady. For the size of the scopes they are just too small and flimsy.
Go for Dob and really enjoy the skies. I would not like to see someone who is keen to get started Say "This sucks" and throw it all in because of poor mounting.
