I thought the recommendation was to keep the Echo dot away from walls?

I doubt there would be any problems hanging on the wall as in the photo posted by the spammer because the microphones are not blocked..   the problem would be on the counter up against the wall where microphones are blocked.

Good points.  But, the wall mount doesn't look like something I would want since I have plenty of flat surfaces around my house where my Dots "hang" out. Anyway, who wants a black ugly cord hanging down the wall in plain view!  I know our new member Monica would "freak out" about this!

Maybe we could send the Roger principle guy a PM he would receive at his email and invite him back to tell us what's up with Roger.  His name is Ricardo if I recall.  How about doing it JW?

I am in no way affiliated with the ebay post but I did buy one of these hangers from Amazon.com and it actually seem to hear better installed in the hanger. Because instead of just a few of the microphones picking up what you say, all of the microphones are pointed directly in to the room. Seems to work good.

Just as long as you are happy with your purchase.

I just use a zip tie and a nail to hang my dot  :-)
