Best Stands for Apple HomePod 2023

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.
The current HomePod model, which we referred to as the HomePod 2 in our review, is slightly shorter and lighter than the original HomePod. The overall shape is the same, though the top is slightly recessed. The diameter of the first and second generation HomePods is the same. Here are some of the best HomePod stands, which will work for either model.
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 comes in both black and white, so you can match or contrast with your speaker.
Raised stands
Consider this pair of speaker stands from Atlantic. They allow you to place your HomePods anywhere in the room for a true stereo experience. Place them on a bookshelf, table, or other 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.
Designer's touch
How pretty is this? When you want more than just function, check out this appealing walnut design. It's not just a stand, it's home decor. Anti-slip silicone pads under the legs keep your HomePod stable.

Whatever style of stand you prefer, there is something for everyone on this list. Personally, I'd go for the Counlisha Wood Stand for HomePod. It's simple and inexpensive and does the job of dampening vibrations and protecting your table surface. It keeps your HomePod off the table surface, in case a spill were to happen. Plus, it just looks so darn good.
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.
