Isn't the Voice version a slight upgrade? I know it sells for $10 more, and even the refurb of it is $5 more than the plain Fire TV stick. So they're giving you an upgrade!
I wouldn't worry about it being refurbished. A lot of times those are actually
better quality because someone has personally checked it out before it gets resold. And many of them aren't "refurbished" so much as "repackaged." Returned, but opened, items often get sold as refurbished. They're checked over to make sure they work, then repackaged. I've got two Nook HD+s I bought refurbished and they're still doing great three years later. Also got a nice digital camera I bought refurbished several years back (forget when exactly) and it's been great too!
They probably went with a refurbished Voice version because they're in stock. Right now the regular Fire TV stick is shown as in-stock on August 5th, and the Voice version as in-stock on July 30th.
