Absolutely stunning mirror. Perfect choice for a 12 bath remodel. I chose this because of the excellent reviews, and I agree. This is 18, a little heavy, and my contractor will have to install an additional stud in the walls while they are open to accommodate, but it wont be a problem in my case. I am going to have a wire installed professionally, between the rings so it will be easier to hang and  or remove to clean. I am very excited to see this installed. The packaging I received this item in was impressive and it arrived in pristine condition. Update over 3 years later... Still looks like brand new condition. Love, this mirror and my new bathroom. Exquisite!
