I bought this magnifying mirror to replace one that I had purchased with 10x. The 10x was way too strong and distorting, but this one is an 8x and perfect for applying makeup without glasses on. This time, I purchased the brand because I previously had one that worked very well. The mountain bracket and frame are in brushed nickle. The mirror size is large. (my older one was lighted and had a lighting strip around the frame that took up some mirror space. I never used the lighting so I got this one without lights)  I asked my husband to install it for me. (I ask ONCE and then do it myself if he doesn't get to it) It was easy to install by myself. As long as you have a drill, level and basic tools, it's easy. The end result is that it looks great and feels sturdy. Now I can see again to apply make up. I would recommend mirrors to anyone and the price was right at Wayfair. Pros: Great size, pretty finish, perfect magnification.Cons: Haven't found any yet.
