This is a beautiful mirror.  I have a couple of issues with this mirror.  My first issue is the fact that it runs on batteries,  As much as this mirror costs it should have a usb cable for power.  My second and biggest biggest issue is the fact that you can't dim it and the lighting is the reason for using a makeup mirror.  To sum it up, it looks nice on my vanity as a prop because there is zero functionality to it.
