    Orion SkyScanner 100mm vs GoScope 80mm, which is best?

    I'm looking to buy my first telescope. I can't justify spending too much money yet, so I'm looking for something to get me started.

    After reading advice and articles, I think a reflector would be better for me than a refractor and I should buy something portable and easy to use.

    I've narrowed my choices down to two similarly priced telescopes.

    Orion GoScope 80mm

    Which do you think would be best? Is there another that I should consider?

    Thanks
