I was sent this mirror in exchange for my honest review. The mirror is great. The shape allows you to see your whole face when using the normal size. The magnifying side is very clear, but you have to be close to the mirror to see clearly on the magnifying side. The lighted feature is great. It does not get crazy bright, just for people to know who are looking for that. It is solid and the base feels solid and keeps it from knocking over easily. It is battery operated with the light feature which is great for on the go. Wish it came with a plug in option as well. I don't know how long the battery lasts with daily use so that is TBD.
