It's my fault not truly looking at the dimensions. But the pictures they have the mirror in are very deceiving. 51 inches is not tall enough if you are looking for a stand up mirror. I assumed this was like the one I was replacing, which must have been close to 62 inches, so I could see my full reflection in it without having to be so far away. The mirror itself is fine quality, so will make it work, just looks odd and short.
