The wife needed some better lighting and a mirror to pull closer to her and this was an easy buy to meet both needs.  I loved that it was offered as a direct wire since I am more than qualified to do electrical work and I hate seeing cords.  If you are a novice and can find a circuit that can handle an extra 25watts, punch a small hole in drywall, connect a white wire/black wire/ground then you can do this.  If not, there are plenty of professionals out there that can.  It was worth it to me to do away with the corded version.  Also...  since it is a overhung load on a wall, please make sure you hit a stud with the anchors.  They provide good anchors for drywall, but it is better to find a stud now than to be patching a huge hole in the drywall later.
