Echo Show 5 (1st Gen) Adjustable Stand - Black

Great product

I have been using the Alexa Dot for a couple years and loved it. I decided to upgrade to this version for the purpose of the screen. I love it even More! Has everything I was used to with an visual element as well. It comes with a good sounding speaker however I still have mine wired to a computer system speaker set up with heavy base. Sounds so much better! I use this unit in conjunction with different smart plugs and lights to control my home. It is nice being able to turn on and off appliances with my voice as well as turning on lights and changing the color of them with voice commands. Alexa never lets me down with her Internet wealth of knowledge. Well almost never… There are some things she just can’t seem to figure out yet. We will see if she improves over time. I know there’s other smart home device systems out there but as a huge Amazon user this seems like the way to go. I do so much of my ordering through Amazon as well as the Prime Video, Kindle and audiobooks. This just ties everything together so nicely. Very pleased! And the size is perfect. Large enough to see the screen but does not take up a lot of room. I also bought the additional stand for it to go on which is a huge plus for my situation/location that I have it set up in. I would definitely buy this again.

Got this 5 5, it works great but...This device can do way more then what it does. And what I mean is Why no play store. Why can't I game with this?Why does it not flip? Would be nice to flip screen to mount under workbench cabnets.Again this could do way more, Amazon put the store back on would you.Next thing I do not like is, I have 2 of these and they spend more time restarting then working.Why would this device not have a recent menu to manually close apps like android, seems like if you can not shut down firefox and other things running all at once, this thing would not keep crashing all the time.The menu that swips from left to right, needs to be moved to the left side of the screen, right now that menu causes a dead spot while useing both web browsers.One show - when starting camera in drop in mode the camera is super blurry for like 15 to 20 seconds. While the 2nd show does not do this. Just strange!Bravo to Amazon for making a single small speaker sound good. Good bass for it's size.I did not know they made these in bigger screens or I would have bought the 8 or 10.1The screens are just way to small for anything. Alexa has a hard time playing my music playlist. It can not be me, I do not think I talk funny, heck maybe I do!I do like how I can check on my workbench in the garage and my bedroom with audio and video, when I am not home.Would I recommend this to my friends?Yes and No, Yes if they need small form screen, then yes. But then at the sametime on this 5.5 inch screen, I would say no. You gonna need to put on your second pair of eye balls to see any shows on prime.What is going on with Youtube pulling up in a browser???You have to press to the left of the full screen button on Youtube videos. No double tap to go in and out of full screen.Firefox and silk really? You know what that means 2 super slow web browsers.The Echo Dot seems to hear you better then these 2 show 5's.The Alexa app after a little tinkering does run my Roku tvs. Tv remote way faster tho.

I purchased this adjustable stand for my kitchen Amazon Echo Show 5. I like to drop in on my son while I'm at work through the camera at home being that he is back to virtual learning. Without the stand I could only see the upper half of my kitchen from the counter. With this adjustable stand I am now able to move the device on my kitchen counter so I can peek in on the camera as needed and see my entire kitchen perfectly. This adjustable stand is super easy to install or apply to the Echo device. See picture that shows bottom of the Echo & top of the stand. This stand just pops right into the bottom of the Echo. This stand also makes the Echo look better and helps hide the wires a little more. The only downside is the price because I do feel that this item should be around $10. I will definitely be purchasing another stand for our Echo in the bedroom but I will wait for the price to go down a bit. Other than that, I highly recommend this product as it was definitely worth the extra money!
