Solid advice, though I would suggest that learning how to properly deadlift is totally worth it. It's easier than other olympic lifts to do at your local chain gym, and there's no better way to make all of the muscles in the posterior of your entire body to feel worn out in 15 minutes. Definitely mind the rep range in any olympic lift though. I've read it's common for form to break down after the 5-10 rep range, and only the lightest warm up sets should be beyond that range while your working sets are 1-5 reps.
