TheAmazon Echo Show 5remains one of the best and easiest ways to jump into the Amazon smart home ecosystem and one of thebest Echo Show smart displaysthe retail giant sells. It packs a ton of functionality, including streaming music, coordinating other smart home devices, and keeping tabs on your Amazon orders (alongside many other skills that range from superfluous to genuinely useful).
That said, the Echo Show 5’s form factor is a bit clumsy. With its bulbous back, it will benefit a great deal from an aftermarket stand or mount.
One note is that this list primarily features accessories for the first and second-gen versions of the Echo Show 5, except the Ledianer and Dirose stands, which support the new third generation. The third-gen model still isn’t widely supported by third-party manufacturers, but when the market for third-gen accessories starts to take off, they will be included in this roundup.

Mounts and stands for the Echo Show 5
The Mount Genie Easy Outlet Shelf is a combo pack that includes the Easy Outlet Shelf for the Round Dot 4th Gen and the custom Echo Show 5 adapter. It attaches to an outlet plug from the side, allowing room for additional outlet access, and can rotate with the device up to 30° for better viewing angles. This is a great-looking, minimalist option for a more permanent mounting device.
The HomeMount Wall Mount for the Echo Show 5 is a more permanent setup than a portable stand. With a platform for devices to sit on, it can be used for the Shaw and devices with similar or smaller dimensions. The mount easily fixes to the wall with a couple of screws, and the cord concealer behind it keeps the cables neat and tidy.
The Amazon Accessory Stand is a simple stand for the Echo Show 5. It comes in multiple colors — black, deep sea blue, and glacier white — and has a wide, sturdy build. It has a magnetic attachment to hold the Echo Show 5 securely in place and can be tilted backward and forward for a better viewing angle. The stand offers the best value for the price, especially considering it’s the official Amazon brand stand.
Otterbox’s Mickey Mouse Inspired Stand is an adorable option that adds color and character to the Echo Show 5. It has a non-slip base with a slot for the device to sit, and the cords can be tucked through the back for organization. The price is also roughly the same as other mounts and stands, making it a reasonable and fun addition to any room.
The Kosnail Stand for the Echo Show 5 is a universal tabletop stand compatible with both Echo Show 5 generations, the Show 5 Kids, and the newer Echo Show 8. It has a magnetic connection, a wide base for stability, and a non-slip grip underneath to keep everything in place. If you upgrade to the Echo Show 8, you won’t need to buy another stand.
The Echogear Tilt + Swivel Stand is a tabletop base stand that pivots and angles for the perfect field of view. The stand has an easy-glide magnet that secures the Echo Show 5 to the base and a swivel component that rotates the device 360°. The base is cast in aluminum, making it sturdy and durable, and the non-slip grip ensures it stays put.
The AutoSonic Stand is a tabletop base stand that uses a magnet to fix it to the device. It is similar to the Echogear Tilt + Swivel Stand, with the same 360° swivel capability, but it lacks some sturdiness and plastic components. It also moves using a ball joint. If you can ignore some of the stand’s shortcomings, you can get a device like the Echogear Tilt + Swivel at a better value.
The Aokicase Wall Mount Storage Rack for the Echo Show 5 is a great option for mounting the device around the home. It is easy to install and has a rubber-coated shelf with a non-slip grip. It also has a removable back piece that can hold the Echo Show 5 in place or put other devices on the shelf mount instead. It is a great option for mounting the Echo Show 5 in any room.
When your counters are starved of precious real estate, this Built3D Under Cabinet Mount is the perfect way to add your Echo Show 5 to your kitchen or bathroom. Compatible with first- and second-gen Show 5 models, the 3D-printed PLA plastic mount has everything you need for installation, including optional cabinet spacers. Conveniently, the housing also keeps the screen, buttons, and power port accessible.
What if we told you that you could outfit your first- or second-gen Echo Show 5 with a portable battery? This is actually possible using the PlusACc Battery Base. With the device, your Echo Show 5 can be used outdoors, in the car, by the pool, or any place that wouldn’t normally feature AC power. The stand offers up to 10,000mAh, so your Echo Show 5 should get around 12 hours of playtime (with volume at 50%).
If you’re looking for a simple, no-frills stand to elevate your Echo Show 5 and introduce tilting functionality, Ledianer’s has you covered (at a fairly reasonable price). Its offering lets you easily reangle the Show 5’s screen and rotate it a complete 360 degrees. The stand is also mounted on a non-slip base to ensure it doesn’t slide around while you’re using the touch screen.
Compatible with the 3rd generation Echo Show 5, the Dirose Adjustable Stand is one of the best ways to add adjustability to the latest model. It allows you to tilt and rotate the display to find the ideal viewing angle, and the magnetic attachment point makes it easy to attach or detach at will.
Elevate your game with the right stand or mount
Beyond tilting or rotating your Echo Show 5, or mounting it in a convenient location on a wall, a stand/mount also raises your hardware out of the path of potentially destructive spills, particularly important if you use your Show in the kitchen to step out recipes.
The Mount Genie Easy Outlet Shelf is a great minimalist solution for mounting the Show 5 in an out-of-the-way spot for maximum convenience. The HomeMount Wall Mount, by contrast, is a great permanently installed wall mount for the Echo Show 5 (or anything else you want to put on it) and features a handy cord concealer for easy cable management.
If you just want a simple, inexpensive stand to pop the Show 5 on top of, consider the Amazon Accessory Stand, which lets you tilt the display to find the perfect viewing angle and is one of the cheapest options currently available.
