I don't know what you mean by cheap, but I like the Vortex Venom.  I have 2 of them, one on a pistol and one on my daughters 20ga.  Great optics...

What I mean is I don't know what your acceptable price range is.  You can get a red dot for $20 up to $800, but like anything else you get what you pay for.

Sig romeo 5. I love mine. Before covid you could catch them on sale for $99.

Holosun (who makes the Sig Romeo) also is a good option, and you can often find them below $100.  Given the difference in quality between the Holosun and those optics with MSRP below $100, I'd absolutely spend the extra money for a Holosun. 

Also, don't forget to check the used and refurbished markets to save a couple of bucks.
