These "telescopes" are honestly trash. You're better off buying a quality pair of 10x50 binoculars. With the 70mm aperture of the linked scope, your maximum (useful) magnification is only ~35x or so and it isn't going to gather enough light to really see much of anything interesting at all.

If you are actually serious about buying a telescope, I'd look at a Zhumell (Apertura, etc) – 8-inch Dob.

Keep in mind that a bigger scope will also come with a learning curve associated with collimating the mirrors and the pain the butt factor of it being a fairly large and 60lb object.
