Packed perfectly. The brushed nickel finish is beautiful. The backing is cardboard which I am fine with -- the mirror is heavy enough as is. The size is actually extremely versatile. I am installing it horizontally in a bedroom so as to maximize light from three windows, but it could easily go into a foyer or over dining room sideboard. 

I am thrilled with how this was packed. I purchased an aspire brand window mirror from way fair around the same time that arrived shattered. (Packing is the manufacturers responsibility and way fair customer service was wonderful). However, I am so relieved that this mirror was packed so securely. 

I am thinking of purchasing another of this brand in a different size for a guest bathroom.
