The Dot is the Echo without the speaker. It still has a speaker, but it's tiny, and more akin to the one in your smartphone. Loud enough for alarms and speech, but not really suitable for playing music etc.
If you just want something to control your IoT devices, then get the Dot.
If you just want to ask questions then get the Dot.
If you want to listen to music then either get the Dot and connect it to speakers, or get the Echo.
Personally, I have swapped my Dot for an Echo, as I wanted the minimalism of an all in one design for the kitchen, rather than 2 devices (Dot+Speaker).

The search on the new site is pants. I searched for echo, and this never came up. Only found it as it got flagged up when I was going to post the deal myself.
I miss the old site and really miss the old classifieds :disappointed:

I always buy Amazon refurbished if the deal is good as they are usually stock which has been returned unused. I've never experienced receiving anything other than unused items.

I paid £99 at launch, think it was just about worth it. This is about as cheap as it's been since, albeit refurb

Heat from me, seems a very good price - refurbs from Amazon generally mean like new but maybe not in original packaging, only once had an issue and Amazon refunded me some money.
