Dot Genie Echo Input Mount Stand Pedestal for Home Theater. Improves Microphone Response. Improves Visibility. Improves Appearance (Black)

Let me start by saying that it is a great product! The concept is fabulous. The echo input being upright is more responsive to my voice commands and it just looks sleeker than the previous alternatives. **THE problem everyone is going to have, and immediately notice, is that the bottom of the stand has no grip. It is the opposite in fact, slippery. I’ve read that before, but that alone is NOT the problem. The problem is that the charging cord that runs through the back of the stand is sturdy and stiff (as an electrical cord should be) and this causes the stand to rotate 30 degrees because the bottom is slippery. It’s funny, I pit it out and it turned. Tried everything to keep it from turning, because what’s the point if the stand turns away from you!? I used some double sided sticky tape (eek to my furniture) to hold it down. I’ve noticed a lot of the affordable products lately have issues with grip. Despite the novelty, the price is seriously to high for this quality. I recommend $3.00 plus tax max.

If you have an Amazon Echo Input, you know that it just kinda sits on the table or counter where you use it. It gets knocked around, moved, etc. I was looking for a wall mount, when I came across this stand and decided to try it.What you get is a small plastic, rigid stand (there is no movement or adjustments). It probably costs less than .25 cents to make and in my opinion should sell for about $5. The current $10 price seems high for what you get, but it appears that this company has cornered the market as I couldn't find another stand like it. So, I bought it anyway.It does work well! It holds the Echo Input upright as described and keeps the cables tidy. It also looks much better than just sitting, flat on the table. I just wish it was more appropriately priced.

Nothing to put together, just put input in and go.Low profile.But NOT sturdy.And inout NOT secure.If you have kids or pets, or possibly even near a breeze, it probably will fall. Fall down. And fall out. The input is not secure in any way.May not be worth hassle of returning.And need something, and will have it out of way. But can’t recommend it uncortunately.

The stand itself is perfect for the function it was designed. Being a disabled person, it will be a additional aid for alexa to help me! But being on disability & a limited budget! I am appalled it wasn’t priced more fairly & the fact it probably cost .25 to make & so the price is extraordinarily high!!!

I loved the idea of this stand and was eager to set it up so that the microphone would more easily pick up our voices. I use the Input to connect Alexa to a Bose Lifestyle system, so no Bluetooth here! I use the 3.5MM jack to connect the two devices.Alas, the aux cable that I own (which is on the large side) won't fit inside the hole of the stand. Not being able to connect the speakers to my Input via this cable means this stand is completely useless to me. Oh, well! I've returned it to Amazon and will have to continue with my repeated requests to Alexa.

I enjoyed reading the similar opinions on the Input holder. I very much agree with them. Might sound like I am complaining but don't mean to be...just quite surprised the $10 price tag gets you a plastic holder that likely cost a nickel or dime at best to manufacture?? I would still give it a high recommend and I like what it does for the stance of the Input in my office. It works well and I guess that is what I should be happiest about. Would I recommend....if you have $10 to spend - YES!

I was surprised somebody even made a stand for the Echo Input but what do you know. It looks great and improves the microphones. I do like the little light on the Input to know she hears me, and this stand makes that easier to see too. The combination of old and new looks really slick.

someone mentioned the input was discontinued, cant find it here on amazon, will add the input stand to my collection , Shirt with no pocket, and Jeans with button up fly. Remind's me to read the description. better.
