The reason I went for the Maksutov was due to it being compact.
Not sure which country you are in so not sure what the prices are like but I bought a 102mm Skywatch Maksutov with the AZGTI goto mount. I live in fairly light polluted skies here in Melbourne Australia and I can see the planets like Jupiter and Saturn without any issues. The reason I went for the Maksutov was due to it being compact. It also came with the AZGTI mount which I also wanted.
