The HomePod, a smart speaker from Apple that works with Apple Music and AirPlay, is pretty great on its own. However, you may find yourself in need of a stand if you want to protect a table surface, attach your HomePod to the wall, or dampen the HomePod's vibrations, so it doesn't move around. Here are some of the best HomePod stands.
Simple coaster
This is basically just an inexpensive silicone coaster, and that may be all you need to absorb some of the HomePod's vibrations and protect your table surface. It does also come with a screen protector film for the top of the HomePod. Choose from Black or White.
Raised stand
If you want the HomePod to stand on its own, consider this speaker stand from Eximus. It allows you to place your HomePod anywhere in the room since it doesn't have to be on another piece of furniture.
Wall mounted
Wall mount your HomePod with this aluminum alloy stand. The design is simple, but it's explicitly customized for HomePod. A ring around the middle holds your HomePod securely in place on the stand.
Cover and pad
This is really just a thin anti-slip pad — not exactly a stand — but most of what you're paying for here is the complete neoprene cover for the HomePod. The pad will protect your table surface, and the cover keeps dust out of your HomePod.
Going sideways
Keep your HomePod sideways, so the top is clearly visible from across the room, and the HomePod can properly EQ itself. Plus, it just looks cool. Choose from Black or White.
Elevated style
A stand that isn't made solely to fit the HomePod is future-proof. These elegant speaker stands will elevate your HomePod both literally and stylistically. They come as a pair, which is perfect if you use two HomePods for stereo sound.

Whatever style of stand you prefer, there is something for everyone on this list. Personally, I'd go for the LANMU HomePod Stand. It's simple and inexpensive and does the job of dampening vibrations and protecting your table surface. Plus, the screen protector film for your HomePod is a little extra touch of protection.
On the other end of the price spectrum, I love the look of the Mount-It! 23-inch Tall Bookshelf Speaker Stands. If you ever change your mind about using them as HomePod stands, you could repurpose them to hold different speakers such as the HomePod mini.
