Feeling like a 3yr old in a sweetshop

HELP i just cant decide what to do i am looking for a scope to upgrade from my astromaster 114eq and have narrowed it down to two scopes that i can afford :

scope 1:Skyliner 150 6" Parabolic Dobsonian telescope

scope 2:EXPLORER-130PM

at this moment in time i am not into astrophotography but i may dabble in the near future

my current scope has 1000mm focal length

the 150 has 600mm focal length

but the dob has 1200mm will i notice a difference ?

I am 6'2" so will i look like quasimodo crouched over the dob?

Moving the scope is not an issue but is tracking harder on a dob??

i already own eyepieces in 6.5mm 10mm 20mm 32mm (a3.3x barlow that is rubish(tasco)) will these still be usable on either scope?

i look forward to any help anyone can give me
