First Impression
The mirror was packed excellently. There were thick cardboard pieces along the edge of the mirror. The manufacturer clearly did a good job in making sure that the mirror arrives in one piece. It would take time to take off the cardboard and styrofoam pieces from the mirror. Allot time for sweeping the room and throwing out all the protective pieces too.
There were handling instructions on the exterior of the box. I believe they were helpful in protecting the mirror during shipping. There was not a single crack or a hint of damage on the mirror. I would suggest checking the entire body of the mirror right after getting it out of the box. If you see any damage, take a picture and call customer service immediately. If all goes smoothly, you should be able to receive a replacement in a few days or the coming week.
At first look, the mirror appears to be an ordinary mirror. You may think so too. As the mirror is lined with LED light, the magic only happens when you light it up.
The size is just as advertised. It is a standard full-length mirror. The mirror comes with mounting brackets to help you hang it on the wall. There is a pair of hooks that are attached to the frame of the mirror. The mirror weighs a lot, so you have to hang it properly.
If mounted correctly, the wall mirror hangs flush against the wall. Take note that you can only hang the mirror on the wall. It doesn’t come with a stand. If you’re looking for a body mirror with a stand, you can find a lot in Amazon.
LED-Lit Mirror
This LED mirror must be plugged into an electric outlet to light it up. LEDs are energy-efficient. They consume low amounts of power, so you shouldn’t worry about a significant spike in your electricity usage. If you’re using fluorescent or incandescent lights at home then they are consuming much more energy than this mirror. LED lights also generally have a longer lifespan. The LED that comes with the mirror has a lifespan of 50,000 hours. With such a long life, this saves you money in terms of maintenance and replacement cost.
This type of light also emits less heat and can stay relatively cool even when it’s turned on for a long time. This makes LED a safer option in contrast to other forms of light. If you are for purchasing sustainable and environment-friendly items, you’ll be happy to know that LED do not contain harmful chemicals. Traditional light sources like fluorescent lights contain mercury. This is why they require special handling after the end of their lifespan. Frequent switching on and off of LED lights do not cause any issue too.
Most importantly, the LED light shines brightly. This is one of the advantages of using LED. With the LED lights on, you can see your reflection vividly and clearly.
Sleek Design
Although the mirror comes with LED lights, it is not bulky. If fact, it is only 0.8-inch thick. This makes the mirror look very sleek and modern. This full-length mirror is a great fit for bedrooms as well as bathrooms. The mirror fogs just like any mirror would in bathrooms. Thanks to its minimalist design, it would go well with any type of space. It would go particularly well in modern spaces.
In small spaces, the mirror doesn’t look like it occupies a lot of space. On the contrary, it makes the room appear larger than it is. Mirrors generally create an illusion that the room is bigger than it really is. As long as you position it at the right spot, you should be able to achieve that effect. For larger rooms, the mirrormirror can serve as a piece to fill up an empty spot.
