I love, love our mirror. It is exactly what I’ve been looking for.  It’s right at 5 ft tall and the sides are beefy. Much bigger than I was expecting.
 The finish will come off on your hands, but doesn’t ruin the look of the mirror. Also, I’ve only touched it once and that was to put it in its spot. I don’t see that would be an issue because your not going to be rubbing on the sides of the mirror. 
I would definitely recommend this product.
