Suzy, I understand that you may be going to AstroFest?If so and you haven't ordered a scope yet why don't you put it off till then as you will be able to see lots of scopes and get a feel for what is available
Also you may Pick up a Bargain from the Vendors
who are there for the last couple of days
I to reckon that with a bit of thought in the way you move the scope in and out of storage can make the 10" a better proposition
PS the collapsible Dob seems a great idea.
