I am very happy with the purchase. The weight of the mirror is not as heavy as I feared. The color is darker than it looks in the photo as other reviewers have remarked. I hung it on a gray living room wall opposite triple sliding doors so the mirror reflects some of the light from outside brightening the room a bit. It appears well constructed. The only negative I might add is that the mirror is a little hard to clean under the metal work but no big deal.
