The main reasons I purchased was the matte black finish and the French cleat for install. Hanging the cleat before dealing with the heavy mirror really helps to get the straight and level. Genius! I purchased two, one over each of our small-ish size sinks. We replaced the big mirror that spanned the whole vanity. Just a much nicer look overall. There is a gap between the edge of the mirror and the outer banding that I was worried would catch dirtgrime since this is my kids bathroom. But, so far, so good!
