Cheap and cheerful is OK provided you understand that's what you have.

Do the objects appear dim or bright?
Bright as can be.

Quote:
Have you been able to see the moons of Jupiter with these?
yup.


Quote:
Can Jupiter be seen with its full glory or does it appear as a white circle? What about Saturn?
Nope, not a chance with binocs. You need a proper telescope for that, a 200mm dobsonian, SCT or Maksutov.

I guess at $149, even if I make a mistake with these binoculars, I dont lose out that much
yup, they are cheap crap. Enjoy while they last.

it takes me a while to save up, this could mean that in order to get another pair, I might have to wait a few more months
... or find a better job...
Good luck !
