I agree with the comments and heartily endorse reflectors and a Dob in particular if you are getting started...
But, do know that you will need to most likely make a few modifications to help it perform better...you can check out some of the other posts...
You will also need to collimate it once in a while...while none of these things are difficult, it is something that you should recognize...it won't necessarily be "grab and go" with a Dob...
Dobs are literally "hands on"...and while you can get tracking systems for them...generally for beginners they are "push to" not "go to"...and they are not suitable for viewing during the day (wild life, neighbors etc.)
You will get more light catching ability and for me it was the right choice but, you need to think about how you want to work with the hobby and the gear...
Did anyone ask what you wanted to view?
That is another key question to answer before jumping in.
Sorry if you've already been through these thoughts...
Enjoy the hobby...
