OK, I admit I was surprised when Amazon announced the new 8″ Echo Show at this year’s hardware event. Since last year we got the Echo Show 5, I didn’t think we would see a new Show this year.  But it makes sense really.  This is a good move for those who might think the Echo Show 2nd Gen is a little too big and the Echo Show 5 is a little too small.  If like me, you bought the Show 8, you basically have two options for stands:  this Echogear stand or Amazon’s own stand that lets you tilt but not rotate it.  Since I constantly rotate my Echo Show 2nd Gen using the YoFew stand below, I gotta say, spend the few extra bucks and get this rotating stand for the Echo Show 8 instead. You will be glad you did.

Amazon is set to begin shipping the new Echo Show 5 tomorrow. And the company just announced that Prime Day 2019 is going to be a two-day event (July 15 and 16, 2019), so the timing could not be better.  While it is unclear whether there will be a deal on the Echo Show 5 for Prime Day, the price is already less than Google’s Nest Hub and you get more functionality. If you interested in learning more about Show 5, check out this post.  For now, we give you Amazon’s own solution for getting Alexa’s 5-inch screen off your counter. While we wait for third-party stand makers to produce some additional stands for Show 5, this is the best game in town at the moment. All told, this looks like a pretty decent stand, and it makes the Show look cooler too.

Newcomer ANCool has got to be, um well, the “coolest” looking stand of the bunch. Not to be shallow, but this is the main reason this stand gets our choice for runner up. Like the YoFeW, this also gives you a 360-degree rotation for your favorite Alexa device.  The warranty isn’t quite as good, but it is still very generous for one year.

As far as we can tell, this is nearly identical to the YoFeW stand, it just ships from a different seller. We list it here as an option in case the YoFeW stand sells out. While the warranty listed here is 19 months and the weight is listed as being slightly less, we still like the YoFeW better as more customers have weighed in with positive ratings on this product.

• Warranty: 12 months

The AutoSonic stand is another great choice if you want to giving Alexa a little boost on your counter. This stand also features aluminum construction, 360-degree rotation, and both tilt and swivel capabilities. In addition, the stand has an anti-slip metal base. The color is a little darker aluminum which gives it a bit of a more elegant look. Customers who purchase this stand are super satisfied and actually rave about it.

• Warranty: “Lifetime”

Specifications:

Like the other items on our list, the ATOPHK Echo Show stand also features 360-degree rotation. It is also aluminum and very much like the Autosonic stand in its darker Chrome color. Where this stand seems to shine is in its tilting capability. The company says “It realizes horizontal rotation and longitudinal angle change.” We are not exactly sure what that means, but judging from the photos on Amazon, the tilt capability is impressive.

“It realizes horizontal rotation and longitudinal angle change.”

A couple of customers have complained about loose parts arriving during shipment, however, which is the only reason why this isn’t higher on our list.

• Tiltable: Yes

The Echo Show (2nd Generation) Rotate and Tilt Stand by Seamlin has a slightly different and interesting design than the other items reviewed so far. And we kinda like it. 😊 The manufacturer says that its low profile design was created “to hide as much of itself as possible while still maintaining the balance of providing great support.” Since the stand is black, your black Amazon Echo Show will blend nicely with the stand.

• Rotatable: 360 Degrees
• Tiltable: Yes
• Fit: Excellent
• Non-Scratch Coat: Unspecified
• Warranty: “100 Satisfaction Guarantee”

The Echo Show (2nd generation) Adjustable Stand is currently “Amazon’s Choice” for a stand, and we suspect that this is because it ships from Amazon Digital Services, LLC. LOL. But in fairness, it is a solid stand, well-liked by customers and less expensive than some of the other stands here. The stand is made of strong plastic, but it doesn’t provide 360-degree rotation. It will get Alexa off your counter, however, at a lower cost than some of the other options.

Key Features:

• Rotatable: No
• Tiltable: Yes
• Fit: Excellent
• Non-Scratch Coat: Unspecified
• Warranty: You can request warranty info here.

Specifications:

• Material: Plastic

This YoFew stand is the go-to stand for anyone who owns the Echo Show 1^st Generation. Like our 2^nd-generation YoFeW pick, this has a ton of reviews on Amazon and consistently gets good ratings. Lifewire, Techhive and other critics agree.  It supports full 360-degree rotation, it is made of premium aluminum alloy, and it also includes YoFew’s 18-month customer satisfaction guarantee.  This is a great low-risk stand for your 1^st-gen Echo Show.  By the way, if you are thinking about upgrading to the dramatically improved 2^nd-Generation Show, don’t miss our comparison of the 2^nd and 1^st Generation here.

If you’re looking for a slightly less expensive version of the YoFeW stand, this stand is worth a look. They are very similar in form and function and the company also offers a money-back guarantee. However, at least one customer has complained about the turning mechanism breaking. The same customer said they had difficulty returning the item as well. It does include a bonus screen protector for the Show, which is nice. And it comes in two colors: black and silver.

Specifications:

When I first read the description for the INNERNEED “Continously Variable” Angle Mount Holder, I couldn’t help but wonder what “continuously variable” meant.  The company claims that the stand can adjust the Echo Show angle from -20°to +20°, which is impressive. Unlike the other stands here, this doesn’t really look as nice and requires more of a manual adjustment.

Key Features:

• Rotatable: No
• Tiltable: -20°to +20°,
• Fit: Good
• Non-Scratch Coat: Yes
• Warranty: Unspecified

Specifications:

• Material: Premium Aluminum
