Hi Megan

Welcome to IIS!

I have an equatorially-mounted Skywatcher 8" Newtonian and it's a great 'scope. The Dob-mounted SW 8" would be very good value, particularly for a beginner. It's very portable, easy to use, but it will give you great views of planets and deep space objects. Go for it!

Cheers
John
