This mirror is SO nice in person. It’s huge and will be beautiful above our vanity when we finish our bathroom remodel. There is no distortion whatsoever and the black frame feels super sturdy. I would say it seems like a black stainless steel material. There were some smudges that looked like scratches on the mirror but most of them seem to be rubbingwiping off just fine. Packaged well with foam and plenty of mounting brackets in the back. Very happy with this mirror!
