Best ideally to go to a cycling specific forum.

But while you're here; tell us what sort of riding you hope to be doing.

I didn't google it.
But I already know it's a really terrible mountain bike. Which suggests the link that was in your signature to https://www.foldingbikesguide.com/ is probably spam and a really poor source of information. So I removed it.
(The bike you suggested is a budget road bike.)

Personally, as ever, I'd suggest to the long-gone OP they go second hand and go for suspension - a Boardman FS should easily be within budget and offer a decent all-round dirty bike.
